Stop scrubbing through hours of camera footage. MoFind is a motion detection tool for videos you already have. Import security camera, doorbell camera, or trail camera footage, and MoFind finds the parts where something moves. All scanning and analysis happen on your iPhone, iPad, Mac, or Apple Vision Pro. Your videos are not uploaded. MoFind analyzes saved video files; it is not a remote camera viewer or live monitoring client. Good for • Finding movement in long security recordings • Reviewing footage from the front door, yard, garage, warehouse, or shop • Checking doorbell and trail camera clips for motion events • Skipping long stretches where nothing changes Key features • Motion event scan Automatically detects changes in the frame and creates an event list with start time, duration, and a thumbnail. Motion-only mode also shows a motion score. • Smart classification Keeps every detected motion event and tries to identify people, vehicles, and animals. Filter scan results and history by category; unclassified events are kept too. • Detection region Scan only the area you care about to reduce noise from trees, roads, timestamps, or other background changes. • Sensitivity and time range Use low, medium, high, or custom sensitivity, and scan only a selected part of a video. • Event preview Quickly review each event with its time, duration, and thumbnail.
