Smart Home Surveillance Picket

If you happen to have an old smartphone or tablet collecting dust somewhere, now you have a better option. Picket turns your spare Apple and Android 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.

UNIQUE SELLING POINTS
- Available on Android & iOS

MOTION DETECTION: Enjoy peace of mind without keeping a constant eye on things. Picket provides automated motion detection schedule. Once a motion is detected, it starts siren alarm to scare the intruder away. Link your Google Drive and Dropbox on both the camera and viewer so that WardenCam can also upload the motion video to your cloud storage. You may even enable 24/7 recording in settings.

NIGHT VISION: The only surveillance app supports night vision mode that can be enabled in settings. Night vision significantly improved visibility with low ambient light, although don't assume visibility at complete dark.

this app works better in the free version that the paid one. Fix the bug and I will gladly change this review. As of now.. this app is garbage. There are many good things that I could say about the app, but I won't until the app is running as it should. For some reason my account only shows Pro version on the phone that it was purchased with. This means adds on the other devices connected to the same account. The worst is when I can't see recorded clips.. at all. (On the PAID version, mind you.)

Picket is better than Alfred: The camera doesn't run down the battery while plugged in, it saves video from about 3s before the motion, & it lets you specify the area of detection, greatly reducing false alarms. (A grid of squares can be turned on/off individually.) Camera can be zoomed. Sends a notification to the viewer in 20s (even when the viewing app isn't running) & in a few mins video is on Google drive. View in app or Web. You can also schedule when to detect motion with different hours 4 different weekdays.. Needs live video on PC rather than just on the viewer. I had some problems using a Galaxy Victory as the camera & a Galaxy S5 as the viewer. The remote zoom slider is on the viewer screen, but doesn't work. The zones 4 detection on the viewer vs. camera are flipped. The viewer to camera sound doesn't work. Took time to figure out that if the camera doesn't have an SD card & you set it to use it, it won't save anything online. Trial ends after 2 days. You can restart for 60m at a time. Trial's limited to 480p for no reason. Buy once, have at least 2 cameras & a viewer.

Given massive amount of functionaly, it would be surprising if everything worked perfectly in a free version. That said, I was able to use it quite effectively. Zoom worked very well and did not degrade the image quality (of cource, it is transmitting only 720x480 part, and I wish it could be increased to standard HD). The motion sensor that allows selecting the area using a fine grain grid and works realy well too.

Well worth paying for pro. It's simple to use and very handy to have. It helped me deal with a lid neighbor and prove that he was having large parties. I set up two old phones. The cameras on each of them are of different quality, so I did take a few minutes to fine tune the auto detect, but aside from that it was smooth sailing.

App makes an old smartphone useful again. Need to keep plugged in and stop auto updates. Mine won't tolerate 1080p but good picture at 720p. Night useless unless proximity light illuminates scene. Movement detect seems reactive to sun shadows. Doesn't catch all people either. Still a very useful and fun app.

So far works really well for being a free app. Good motion detection, records when motion is detected. 4 stars only bc it often takes a whole to load, but allows me to use an old phone as the camera, so not complaining.

A. G. u. Jan 20, 2019     

Sorry but at least 1 star must be taken away when actually 2 stars taken away would be Just Review. You don't know why so i tell you. 1: There is No zoom in feature like Alfred cam. 2: This app the only one which battery saver complains about as even with screen shut closed on phone it still draws a lot of battery. Now there are many more flaws i cannot type but the app is slow on fastest of phones and fast clear wifi. it buffers and. bufers and locks up too. Too much delay mostly in every step.

awesome. the one problem I have is the camera doesn't always connect overall reuse your old phones and it works great for security or whatever your needs are. I give Warden camera 5 stars it really works and you can record to and you can even speak through the microphone it's really cool give it a whirl.

Motion Detection and Videos will not load. It just spins. Also while using it, it told me the app was installed incorrectly and to reinstall it. I paid for Pro Version so I should not be having these issues. This is not a beta version.

I dont like google account sign in. I am a more professional office user. I use microsoft office. I am a microsft geek. I dont like using google for anything other than laughing. Also I do like the speed of this app. I will come back when there is a premium fee to remove adds and an advanced option to use microsoft email instead of google. Thanks alot.

decent app works pretty well but recently stopped sending notifications and crashes a lot. kind of disappointing but it is free and works better than anything else I've used

Mik. T. Aug 26, 2019     

Complete rubbish. Most of the time you just get to stare at "Loading..... or Buffering.... Texts and nothing happens. If it manages to connect, the connection keeps braking and lagging. Don't waste your time with this.

Mat. G. Oct 11, 2019     

I have the pro version under two email address and note for dinner reason I can't seem too user either one. Are you having problems with the app. Can not view at all, and the internet is not the problem. Will give 5 stars and great review of you can get this resolved

don. Jan 28, 2019     

app is great but I have an annoying intermittent delay in notifications. also how can I get sound with the push notifications? likely a phone issue but just thought I'd ask

Mir. H. Apr 24, 2019     

It works really well. I feel at ease knowing that I can watch over my home from work or while in vacation. I'm putting my old phones to use! Thank you!

Jil. w. Oct 20, 2018     

All great except there are still ads after paying for the service. Other than that it's perfect for what I need.

Car. M. Aug 23, 2019     

Takes you much battery power even when phone is plugged in, does not alert very well.

A. G. u. Sep 15, 2018     

Installed and wanted to try but app requested permission to read and manage my emails. What's up with that? Why?

Mar. C. Aug 4, 2020     

Night vision it's not worth a shot I want to get off the phones get confused on which is the server and which one is the Watcher hard to get back in also I patched download at least four email Justice Just you have the work that you working for you so don't get it

Gon. W. Jan 5, 2020     

Buffering & loosing connection disaster. But ironically, video ads have no problem getting through...

Dou. B. May 4, 2019     

Cannot get rid of ads or correct picture. Paid $5.99 for up grade and ripped off, no way to refund through google. Stay away poison app.

Ser. M. Mar 17, 2020     

This app works great. It was easy to set up. I'm able to zoom so I can keep an eye on my car and the front of my home
