I had over a dozen “smart” cams with custom enclosures and mounts that are trash now. Over a thousand dollars and many hours setup. Every one was fully functional with years of service life remaining. I will think twice before purchasing a Samsung product that requires support. I have switched my security cam system to REOLINK 4K cams including an outstanding video doorbell. The Reolink app is excellent!
which app for viewing reolink cameras please I have a dozen Samsung and they are working on my older iphone / SmartCam app but my new iphone with the app stated rendered useless and of January 2025
Also what to do with a dozen perfectly working Samsungs unbelievable
If you have blueiris or vlc and setup a static dhcp reservation for the cameras you can still grab the rtsp stream from the camera. But as others have stated you can't configure or see anything on the camera app anymore. I had started replacing all of my cameras with unifi cameras since all of these cameras are 2.4ghz and a pain to keep going.
You can access the direct rtsp streams using the username/password that was setup admin (and your passcode)
Members_i3r9dye, is there some way you can post your info above again with no shortened words or acronyms for those of us who are clueless? I love these cams, and I have seen the Blue Iris recommendation before, but I do not know how to do what you recommend. When you say admin user and password, do you mean the Samsung login for the Samsung account, or the password that I set for each camera during setup? Also, if the password for each camera, what would the user name be? Admin? Sorry, but I have no idea. I will probably be purchasing that Blue Iris software. I use these cams to monitor my elderly mother, and nothing else I have purchased will capture sound worth a **bleep**. I have to be able to hear and understand her. I also, have to be able to see and hear if she leaves her kitchen sink water running. The TAPO and Wansview cameras I have tried are not cutting it. The FOV for every other camera is also much less and does not work for my purposes. Any help you can provide would be so appreciated!
Some encouraging news for those of you with unifi protect camera setups. It looks like if you enable 3rd party cameras it will automatically detect and you can adopt the samsung cameras.
