Features & Capabilities

Cawice® transforms your unused smartphone into a versatile home security camera, baby monitor, or pet cam. With an easy setup, just install the app on two phones and log in using the same Google account to pair them. One phone acts as the security camera, while the other serves as the viewer.

Key features include live video streaming, two-way communication, motion and sound detection, instant alerts, automatic video recording, and multi-user access. Privacy is paramount — Cawice employs Peer-to-Peer streaming with SSL encryption to protect your data. Recordings are stored either locally on your device or securely on your Google Drive, ensuring your videos remain private and secure. For support, contact contact@cawice.com.

User Reviews

Users report the app as stable and generally positive when it works, but persistent issues include connectivity problems, lack of HD video despite subscription, a poor interface and difficult setup, unreliable notifications/audio, and Android 14 compatibility concerns.

Pros

Highly stable and trouble-free performance compared with other similar apps.
Strong positive sentiment from users; reviews describe it as very nice/very good and that it works well.
Useful security camera functionality with generally reliable operation.
Good daytime and nighttime recording quality when lighting is adequate.
Some reviewers recommend the app despite its issues.

Cons

Frequent connection issues; devices often fail to connect or go offline.
HD video recording or HD live video is not available even with a subscription; video quality remains low.
Horrible interface and setup can be tricky; requires many permissions.
Notifications and audio often do not work (no alerts or audio gaps).
Compatibility problems on Android 14 (devices may be unusable).

Recent reviews

Uninstalled after trying for an hour to get it to work. i followed the instructions, allowed all permissions, but no video would show up. Every time I would close the app to check the settings, it would pop back up. It opened several times while my phone was locked which prevented me to get back into my phone. if this is happening to you, you have to swipe down, enable or disable location or something else, then it will allow you to type your password.

Did the 3day free trial and the HD recording was not anymore clear than the free trial. So the 2nd day i canceled the subscription and uninstalled during the trial period. Still charged me. sometimes fails to close app repeatedly on phone that's used as the camera
