TrailEye is a powerful and easy to use hunting camera assist software. No matter where you are in the world, you can connect to the Internet to receive and view the images from your hunting camera, even if you are thousands of miles away. If you wish, you can also share your wonderful photos with your friends via popular social software. The App also has a lot of details you might not expect. For example, it monitors the status of your hunting camera and automatically alerts you about low battery, low SD card capacity, and expiring service packages. It can also alert you after your hunting camera has taken a new picture. It also allows you to pay for more advanced service packages... To get started, you'll need to purchase a hunting camera from TrailEye and add it to the app.
