This article shows you how to connect to your Veo Cam 3 using the Veo Camera app to control the camera.
The Veo Camera app allows you to control the camera when you want to record, live stream or connect to the camera to check the settings.
To install the app click here for iOS, and for Android click here.
Once you have the app installed on your mobile device or tablet, follow the steps below to connect to your Veo Cam 3.
On your camera:
- Press the power button for 1 second to turn the camera on.
- Wait for the first status light to stop blinking and be solid, and the camera will be ready to connect.
On your mobile device:
- Make sure Bluetooth is on.
- Open the Veo Camera app and log in with your Veo credentials.
- If it's your very first time connecting to a camera, the app will show you cameras found nearby. If you have previously connected, saved cameras will automatically appear.
- Select your Veo Cam 3 when it shows on the app. Select the correct one if multiple cameras are available based on the ID number.
You are now connected to the Veo Cam 3 via Bluetooth.
At this point, you can:
- Access recordings Library.
- Access the Camera settings (recording time remaining, camera info, internet connection info, about, and firmware version)
- Start a recording and live stream without enabling the preview. If you want to start a recording or a live stream but are unsure about the camera position, we highly advise you to enable the preview by tapping on the preview button in the top left corner.
To enable preview, make sure the WiFi option is active on your mobile device. The app will make the request to join the camera’s WiFi network. This is just a temporary connection between the camera and your mobile. Tap on Connect. Make sure the WiFi option is active on your mobile.
Please note that being connected to the camera hotspot while live streaming may interfere with the stream quality.
