## Description

Turn your iPhone or iPad into a standalone NVR, or securely view your Mac's Storage Server footage from anywhere. Smart detection, local storage, and instant scrubbing.

IP Camera Viewer 2 operates in two distinct modes: as a fully standalone Network Video Recorder (NVR) running directly on your iOS device, or as a highly secure remote viewer for your Mac.

1. STANDALONE NVR (NO MAC REQUIRED)
Turn your iPhone or iPad into a complete recording engine. All processing and storage happen locally on your device.
• Auto-Discovery: Instantly find and add IP cameras on your network.
• Universal Support: Connect any RTSP source (H.264, H.265, MJPEG).
• Local Recording: Record continuously or on a custom schedule directly to your device.
• Smart AI Detection: Real-time person, vehicle, and object recognition generate actionable alerts.
• 2 Cameras Free: Monitor and record up to two cameras at no cost. Subscriptions unlock 4, 8, or 16 cameras.

2. SECURE REMOTE VIEWER (FOR MAC)
Already running IP Camera Viewer 2 on your Mac? Access it seamlessly from anywhere.
• Zero-Config Pairing: Connects securely using Apple's end-to-end encrypted iCloud Keychain.
• Storage Server Access: View footage your Mac records to its always-on Storage Server daemon, on any internal or external disk. Connection details sync automatically over iCloud Keychain.
• Full Remote Access: Watch live feeds, scrub recorded footage, and review smart AI events generated by your Mac.
• Unified Experience: Enjoy the exact same fluid timeline and adaptive grids as you do locally.

ADVANCED MONITORING & PLAYBACK
• Live Multi-Camera Grid.
• Smart Event Timelines: Alarms and detections are grouped by day. Tap any event to jump instantly to that recorded frame.
• Immersive Scrubbing: Pinch-to-zoom timeline with variable-speed playback.
• Quick Export: Save snapshots to Photos or trim and share video clips instantly.

TEAM & HOUSEHOLD SHARING
• Multi-User Accounts (Pro): Give family or staff their own named Viewer logins for live view and playback — no need to share the owner password. Available for Macs running the Storage Server.

PRIVACY FIRST
• Zero tracking, and zero data mining. Your video, recordings, and detection data never leave the Apple ecosystem.

Designed natively for iPhone and iPad. Requires iOS 26 or later.
