## What is App2Cam Plus?

With App2Cam Plus you operate the app-based surveillance cameras from the ABUS Comfort-Line.
Do you have any questions or suggestions? You can reach us by phone at +49 8207 959 90-0 or by e-mail at support@abus-sc.com. Help articles and commissioning videos can be found on the support portal support.abus-sc.com.
With App2Cam Plus you have permanent access to the live image, the memory and all functions and settings of your security camera.
You can count on it:
The app's step-by-step wizard guides you through the setup process so that the app shows the first live image of the camera within a few minutes. 2. 
2. make personal settings in the app to optimally set up the camera and app for the conditions at your location. 3. 
3. all camera functions, e.g. the live image and access to recordings, are of course also available when you are on the road (assuming a stable internet connection).
 4. the camera informs you about events (detected movements) via push message. For example, you can see immediately who is standing in front of your door, whether your child is already back from school, who is hanging around in your garden at night, what your dog is doing and much more. 
5. up to 8 compatible cameras (8 base stations for models with battery) 
can be integrated into 
the app.

 Other functions depend on the camera model:
- The latest generation of camera models and your smartphone connect even faster via Bluetooth during startup. This means that even camera beginners can get up and running in just a few minutes.
- For cameras with the object differentiation function, define what the camera should report to you via push message: People, animals and/or vehicles. Adjust the sensitivity of the respective detection according to your personal needs.
- For cameras with intercom function, you can activate the camera's microphone and loudspeaker in the live view at the touch of a button to talk back via smartphone and quickly clarify situations.
- Detailed images in color even at night: with models including integrated LED light. 
- With pan-tilt cameras, you can intuitively control the angle of view by swiping directly on the live image or by calling up the preset positions. - 
For cameras with masking functions, you define in the settings private zones to be hidden (e.g. public streets, neighboring properties), zones with sensitive motion detection, or zones without detection at all (if, for example, a waving flag, or a shadow cast is detected as a person).

At a glance:
- Quick start-up via step-by-step wizard 
- Permanent free access to all functions 
- Push message in case of motion detection (detection mode depends on camera model) 
- Access in home network/WLAN and on the go (remote access) - 
Livestream - 
Recordings stored locally on microSD/USB stick (depends on camera model) 
- Intercom (depends on camera model) - 
Manage all settings / set personal settings - 
Up to 8 cameras/base
 stations.

### 1/5 — Very bad app

*2026-07-26, version 1.3.13*

I can not change wi fi neither giving me options. I set up at home, bring the came at work I have to access work WiFi no options on app. What a smart people make this crazy app.

### 1/5 — Nul

*2025-11-25, version 1.3.12*

Impossible d’ajouter des caméras système fermé et surtout limité à 2 caméra sur certains modèle bref heureux d’avoir perdu du temps et de l’argent avec cette achat

### 1/5 — Very bad app

*2025-10-20, version 1.3.12*

I can not change wi fi neither giving me options. I set up at home, bring the came at work I have to access work WiFi no options on app. What a smart people make this crazy app.

### 3/5 — Übersichtlich & alles was man benötigt aber zu langsam - wenige Filter Möglichkeiten

*2025-10-06, version 1.3.12*

Soweit alles okay aber viel zu langsam und man müsste mehr bei den Aufzeichnungen filtern / mehrere Videos auf einmal markieren können um sie zu löschen

### 4/5 — Programmation de la Rotation manquante

*2025-08-16, version 1.3.12*

Bonjour la caméra fonctionne très bien. Je trouve dommage qu’il n’est pas possible de programmer un automatisme de balayage des 3 positions. De ce fait il n’y a qu’une position qui est surveillée et rend le caractère rotatif inutile. Merci

### 1/5 — Appli très mauvaise

*2025-08-11, version 1.3.12*

Comment revenir à l’ancienne version qui est très bien je ne peux plus visionner la vidéo sur la carte mémoire j’ai un iPhone 7

### 5/5 — Einfach super

*2025-05-29, version 1.3.12*

Endlich haben wir eine Kamera, auf die man sich verlassen kann!  Das Anbringen der Kamera ist der längste Part. Das ganze Einrichten ist so unkompliziert, dass es nur wenige Minuten dauert. Daher sind wir von der Kamera und der App voll überzeugt und begeistert.

### 5/5 — Viele Funktionen nicht intuitiv

*2025-05-06, version 1.3.12*

z.B. den Zeitplan zur Bewegungserkennung einstellen. 
Dann werden Videos einfach nicht gespeichert

### 3/5 — Gut aber mit ein paar Mankos

*2025-03-13, version 1.3.12*

Wir besitzen 2 Kameras, die Qualität im hellen als auch im Dunkeln ist wirklich gut, die App an sich ist auch gut und übersichtlich. Das einzige Manko ist das in den letzen Monaten immer mehr Fehlaufzeichnungen passieren, die Kameras sehen leider zu oft Personen oder Tiere die nicht da sind. Das stört etwas da man ständig eine Nachricht bekommt und natürlich guckt. Ich hoffe sehr das  bald ein Update rauskommt und diese Fehler behoben werden können. Ansonsten werde ich wohl in Zukunft auf andere Hersteller umsteigen müssen.

### 3/5 — Nicht schlecht

*2025-03-12, version 1.3.12*

Grundlegend ist die App nicht schlecht und besser als viele andere Kamera Apps. Aber warum macht solche Apps immer im Hochformat??? Das die App immer im Hochformat öffnet und man das Pad dann immer drehen muss ist schon manchmal nervig…wäre besser, wenn die App die Pad Ausrichtung selbst erkennt und sich auch im Querformat öffnet, vor allem wenn man die Kamera als Klingel/Tür Kamera nutzt. Der Splittschirm ist auch gut, aber schade das hier generell 4 Fenster angezeigt werden und man dies nicht ändern kann. Dadurch wird das Bild ziemlich klein, wenn man nur 2 Kameras besitzt. Was wirklich super ist, man braucht kein Nutzerkonto und kein Abo, das war der Ausschlaggebende Grund uns für dieses System zu entscheiden und wir bereuen es nicht!
