Features & Capabilities

If you happen to have an old smartphone or tablet collecting dust somewhere, now you have a better option. Picket turns your spare smartphones and tablets into home surveillance cameras that you can watch while you’re away. It helps you find out if your package arrived, monitor your baby, if the kids are home from school, or find out what your dog and cat are up to.

Picket will take any Android phone or tablet running Gingerbread version 2.3 or greater and put its Internet connectivity and advanced video and audio sensors to good use. Video surveillance has never been easier. Install Picket on two phones. One is your Camera at your designated location and take the other one with you as a Viewer. Log in with the same Google account, and that’s it! You are now connected to your loved ones via WiFi or 3G/4G from anywhere in the world. With Picket's unique motion detection feature and Google Drive and Dropbox integration, you can enjoy peace of mind without keeping a constant eye on things.

Paid again for add free but now latest update broke this app too. This is WardenCam under a new name. I paid for ad free WardenCam last year but the app stopped working after the April update. Now Picket expects me to pay again for ad free. Support at WardenCam360 which makes both of these apps won't return my emails.

I've used this app for years. Can't live without it but it has its issues. "Talk" isn't working since the latest update, maybe longer. I would love to be able to view uninterupted recordings instead of 3 minutes at a time when it's set to record. Would be great to be able to search for a specific time like say, between 4-5 PM instead of viewing 100 clips before finding out just how the rake came up missing, for example.
