About

PeekScope

Read full description

PeekScope is a camera viewer for iPhone and iPad. Use it with a compatible local Wi-Fi camera, or connect a USB Video Class (UVC) camera to a supported USB-C iPad. WI-FI ON IPHONE AND IPAD Join the camera's Wi-Fi network and enter its local IP address or exact HTTP or HTTPS JPEG/MJPEG stream URL. PeekScope tries common stream paths when you enter only an IP address. You can also scan a QR code that contains the stream address. A Wi-Fi password or manufacturer pairing code alone does not provide a video stream. USB ON SUPPORTED IPADS Connect a compatible UVC camera to a supported USB-C iPad. Generic USB camera capture is not available in PeekScope on iPhone. USB compatibility varies with the camera, cable, hub, video format, and power supply. VIEW AND CAPTURE • Watch a live view with rotate, mirror, zoom, freeze, and fill/fit controls. • Save photos for free to a PeekScope album in Photos. • Unlock video recording for both camera modes with one non-consumable purchase. There is no subscription. • Browse, share, and delete your captures in the built-in gallery. • In USB mode, choose from the video formats your camera reports. Free USB viewing is limited to standard definition; one rewarded ad can unlock higher resolutions and hide banners for 24 hours. COMPATIBILITY PeekScope needs iOS or iPadOS 17 or later. Wi-Fi mode works only with cameras that expose a reachable local JPEG snapshot or MJPEG stream. Direct Bluetooth video, RTSP, HLS, and proprietary pairing protocols are not supported. An external camera is sold separately, and compatibility is not guaranteed for every camera model. PRIVACY The camera feed and captures stay on your device; PeekScope does not upload them to AGM Apps. The built-in camera is used only if you choose to scan a QR code. Third-party ad services may process device and network information to provide and measure ads, subject to your choices and our Privacy Policy. Need help?
