Hi lemmys.

My friend is looking for an indoor security camera. He’s only going to use it while he’s away, which doesn’t happen too often. Otherwise, the camera will be in a box.

Are there any good cameras, which also have an iOS app? Can’t be self-hosted as he’s not that technically savvy and overseas so I can’t do it myself lol

Thanks :)

    I have a TP-Link Kasa indoor WiFi camera. This one in particular. It’s not a self-hosted camera that uses an NVR or anything. It’s accessible from the Kasa app on iOS (and Android). It requires a microSD card to store footage.

    There is a cloud subscription option to recorded footage, but it’s not required. I am subscribed though, because if a camera is stolen/broken during a break-in or something, there goes all the recordings that one might need.
