The "no look" joystick allows you to look at the camera image while positioning the camera instead of needing to look at some tiny arrow buttons. Simple tap and hold anywhere near the joystick. The joystick will center on your finger. Then just drag in the direction you want to go.

Push to talk makes talking through your camera easy. Simply hold the microphone button to talk and release to stop. 

Take pictures and videos with ease. Videos and images are captured instantly without interference, popups, or waiting. Images and videos are sent directly to your camera roll. You can email or upload them to YouTube from there.

Fast, easy setup: Most people with multiple cameras have them setup with similar network settings, often only the port number is different. With Foscam Pro’s duplicate feature, setting up multiple cameras takes only a few seconds. Username and passwords can now be set up as defaults for new cameras.

Setting up the same cameras on multiple devices? Foscam Pro allows you to e-mail your camera settings to yourself, coworkers, family or friends. Passwords are no longer included in the configuration file.

Additionally, Foscam Pro allows you to use local addresses for when you are on the same network as the cameras, and remote addresses for when you are away from the home location. This allows you to get the best connection no matter where you are. 

Want to save bandwidth? Foscam Pro has three bandwidth saving modes to choose from for 89xx series models.

Foscam Pro is a universal app. This means it is a Foscam iPhone app, a Foscam iPad app, and a Foscam iPod app. You only have to buy it once.

### 1/5 — Didn’t open!

*2026-01-13, version 3.911*

Waste of time and money. Couldn’t even open it and the support is nonexistent. The synaptic edge support doesn’t open!

### 1/5 — Stopped working.

*2024-04-27, version 3.911*

The app needs updated. It shuts down as soon as I launch it on iPhone 12 mini. Tried deleting and reinstalling. Still doesn’t work. Wasted money.

### 5/5 — Still works in 2024.

*2024-04-24, version 3.911*

Most excellent program I’ve got for watching my Foscams.

### 1/5 — No longer works on latest iPhone software

*2024-04-09, version 3.911*

Did work but no longer after update to latest iPhone software (iOS 17)

### 1/5 — Total garbage

*2023-09-07, version 3.911*

Does not connect to any of the cameras. Zero customer service. Save your money and buy something else.

### 1/5 — Não tem atualização

*2023-07-03*

Ó App abre e fecha sem conseguir colocar todos os dados.
Não se consegue ver a câmera fora de casa, somente quando está na residência.
O interessante é abrir a câmera em lugares fora de casa!

### 2/5 — O aplicativo abre e fecha sozinho

*2023-01-17*

As câmeras conectam mas em 5 segundos o aplicativo fecha sozinho.

### 1/5 — No longer working

*2021-03-06, version 3.911*

Doesn’t seem to be supported anymore

### 4/5 — Android Version

*2020-09-21, version 3.911*

I wish that they will make an Android version of this app. It’s the only app that worked great with my old cameras.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2020-09-01, version 3.911*

Maybe doesn’t work isn’t fully correct, it works for my wife, but not for me. Same exact settings. Emailed support but they never responded. I say if you’re going to spend money on cameras invest in ones that you can actually use, these Foscam’s have absolutely no value to me.

In preparation for iOS 9 and the 3.910 version of Foscam Pro.
-Increased image processing speed.
-Moved Camera Log button away from contrast slider to prevent inadvertent contact.

Sorry for the delay in the updates. We have been restructuring our company.

### 3.7 — 2015-08-18

In preparation for iOS 9 and the 4.0 version of Foscam Pro.

### 3.6 — 2013-12-02

-Fixed problem where the Live Camera Settings (Brightness, Contrast, etc) settings were disabled on Foscam MJPEG models.
—Live Camera Settings, now are updated live if another camera user changes the settings
—Live Camera Settings now show has settings for flicker reduction (50Hz, 60Hz, and Outdoor)
—Live Camera Settings can now show camera activity log if you are an administrator
-Added customer requested zoom control option for MJPEG models with optical zoom (Thanks Maurice)
-Activity Flasher now starts gray
-Improved audio handling
-Added audio buffer setting. A smaller buffer setting will decrease the audio delay, but can possibly have more pops, clicks, or silence depending on the quality of the camera and device connections. A larger buffer increases the audio delay, but will have less or no pops, clicks, or silence.
-Changed bandwidth saver settings. All preset modes use 640x480 and only change the FPS. Custom modes can still be used to change the resolution. Had to do this because not everyone read the pop-up messages explaining the bandwidth saver and some thought the app was causing their resolution to be low. It was. They just didn’t know they could change it.
-Bandwidth saver off mode now doesn’t set any any resolution or fps settings. Previously it was forcing max framerate and max resolution. If another user changes the resolution, it will change for you too. 
-Increased stability and error handling.
-Shake to refresh added to group thumbnail view. Shaking the device will cause all cameras in the group to refresh their connection.
-Added customer requested url schema to open the app from other apps . (foscampro://) Follow it with a,b,c,d, or x to open specific groups. (Thanks Travis)
-When resumed while listening to audio in the background, bandwidth saver settings are applied on re-opening
