Turn any spare iPhone or iPad into an AI-powered security camera — and tell it, in your own words, exactly what matters. AI EVENT ANALYSIS Type what you want to know — "alert me if a person enters the backyard", "notify me when the baby climbs out of the crib", "tell me if the dog gets on the couch" — and whenever your mobile camera records motion, UniCam's AI reviews the recording and notifies you only when it matches. No more alert spam. Just the moments you asked for. SIRI AND EVENT SEARCH Ask Siri to open a camera, search your events, turn alerts on or off or set up AI Analysis. Say “Show Front Door in UniCam” or “Search UniCam events.” In Events, type “dog in the garden” and UniCam finds the matching events from the last 7 days.
