Near Intersection of I-35 & I-90 Southern Mn. | I have two of the Larsen cameras as mentioned above. They work fine (only one at a time) with the Cam Hi app on both my iPhone 6 and iPad Pro. I ran across an old Android phone in the drawer the other day and I decided to try to use it just for working with the cameras. I was not able to load the Cam Hi version for Android though. I suspect the operating system was too old. This was an old Tracfone which might have something to do with it. There are other WiFi camera apps that would load and appeared healthy but I was not able to get them to work with my cameras. I suspect some of them could if I understood them better. Larsen Lights says they only use the Cam Hi app.
My Great Nephew has a couple of old smartphones that we will try to load Cam Hi on to. So far this hasn't happened. The other day I saw a $40 - 9" tablet at Wal-Mart that I thought might work. I asked if I could attempt to load the Cam Hi app before purchase. They said No, I would have to buy it, take it home, try it and if it didn't work I could return it within 30 days. They had several tablets on display but none of them were "ON". I asked if they could at least turn on the model I had interest in. The lady said No, due to Covid-19 they wanted to discourage people touching the display models. I said OK, I'll just buy the one of interest and likely return it. She looked and they did not have any more in stock beside the display model.
My thought was to buy a cheaper small tablet and just use it with the cameras. The iPhone and iPad work well but the 9" tablet appeared to be a nice size for my situations.
