Point a camera at anything and tell the AI what to watch for, in plain words. "Alert me if my cat jumps on the counter." "Tell me when a package arrives." "Notify me if my 3D print fails." AI Vision Monitor watches so you don't have to. WHAT PEOPLE MONITOR • Pets: cat on the table, dog on the couch, empty food bowl • Home: package at the door, water leak, snow on the driveway, a free parking spot • Makers: 3D print failures, kiln, aquarium, plants • Family: the baby woke up, an elderly relative is up and about, kids came home • Work: shop entrance, storage room, equipment status HOW IT WORKS 1. Point a camera at the scene 2. Describe the event in your own words, in any language 3. Choose how often to check, from seconds to hours 4. Get an alert the moment it happens ANY CAMERA YOU ALREADY OWN • This phone: the viewfinder becomes a camera in one tap • Old phones and tablets: give a retired device a new job • USB webcams and Wi-Fi / RTSP cameras, through a free companion app for your computer • Run several cameras at once and see them all on one screen WHERE ALERTS ARRIVE • Push notifications • Email • Telegram and Discord WHY IT'S DIFFERENT • Not motion detection: the AI understands what it actually sees • Any scenario you can put into words, not a fixed list • It remembers earlier frames, so it won't alert twice for the same thing • Pick a lighter or a smarter AI model per scenario to control what you spend FAIR PRICING • 50 free credits to start, no card required • You pay only for the frames that are analysed • The estimated cost is shown before monitoring starts Also in your browser at app.aicameras.win.

What you see in the working frame is exactly what the AI analyses. On sideways mounts the arrow now points at the real sky and the badge shows how the phone is turned. Camera mode is one tap from Home in any role. ### 1.2.6 — 2026-08-21 Your scenarios now survive camera deletion and can be moved to any camera. Each scenario shows whether its webhook really reached your device, and a failed automation sends you an alert. The viewfinder now shows exactly what the AI analyses. The app reconnects by itself after losing network. ### 1.2.5 — 2026-08-20 Signing in with Google or Apple works again. On some phones it failed without a word and sent you back to the sign in screen. Photos from a phone camera now arrive the right way up on every model, so the AI describes what it is actually looking at. A stopped camera can now be asked for a fresh frame. Finnish added. ### 1.2.3 — 2026-08-10 A camera phone now survives bad nights on its own. Three fixes for phones that work unattended: the app recovers by itself after the system freezes it overnight, a restart while the network is down no longer signs you out, and losing Wi-Fi mid watch no longer ends with a false "this camera no longer exists" message. If a connection ever does get stuck, the loading screen now offers a Retry button instead of spinning forever. ### 1.2.2 — 2026-08-09 Tidy up your library: delete scenarios you no longer need, and rename or remove your recorded voice lines on the You screen. Create and record my voice: make a scenario and go straight to recording the line your phone will play. Saner alerts out of the box: repeat warnings now wait 5 minutes by default, and the AI drafter chooses between a one-time check and a standing watch based on your description. Plus clearer camera permission screens and small fixes. ## Apps similar to AI Vision Monitor | App | Rating | Price | Category | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | [GuideRide](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/guideride/id6737991189) | — | Free | Utilities | | [AI Guide Dog](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/ai-guide-dog/id6737235071) | 4.2 (6) | Free | Utilities | | [Sonify - Sound Meter](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/sonify-sound-meter/id1556620237) | 5.0 (2) | Free | Utilities | | [Pharo Previewer](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/pharo-previewer/id1393842190) | 5.0 (1) | Free | Utilities | | [HelloNav](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/hellonav/id6754678052) | — | Free | Utilities | | [Glimpse Vision AI](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/glimpse-vision-ai/id6764219526) | 5.0 (1) | Free | Utilities | --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
