## Description

Whether you are a professional Paranormal Investigator, a hobbyist or want to set up a simple alarm system, this app works as a motion detector taking snapshots when movement is detected by the camera.<br><br>By placing your device on a fixed, UNMOVING surface (using a tripod works best) you can point it at an area to monitor. GhostEye will use the camera to watch for movement and take a snapshot when it detects changes in the image.<br><br>Features include:<br>- Use the rear or front camera where available<br>- Adjust sensitivity to prevent false motion detection<br>- Save snapshot images at 25%, 50%, 75% or full size<br>- Share saved images with other apps, e.g. Google Drive, Email, Twitter etc.<br><br>TIP 1: Even a cheap tripod (e.g. from a pound shop/dollar store) will provide a steady image to prevent your device being affected by motion or vibration. Don&#39;t try to use the app while holding your device as it will detect lots of movement.<br><br>TIP 2: The app can be used to catch trespassers in an area by leaving your device plugged into a charger and pointing to the area to monitor. It works great as a bedroom monitor or facing out of a window.<br><br>If the app does not do what you were expecting, or there is an issue with it running on your device, please contact me for help.<br><br>There are no adverts in this software. If you would like to try the free version first (with limited snapshots and image size), it is listed under &quot;GhostEye Lite&quot; here https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.worldbydesign.ghosteyelite
