Presence is a free app for iPhones which allows you to send streaming video to another iPhone. They say it can work as a nanny cam, security cam or general communications.
I am hoping if it will work to leave my iPhone in the parked coach at any site with wifi and view it from our other phone. It would allow us to check on the dog or any activity at the coach.
Anyone using Presence now?

Dennis,
I downloaded it onto a spare iPhone
Watched it from my personal iPhone.
Also used my iPad to watch it.
Would be good for a dog owner. One can see when the pup jumps onto your bed, knowing that is a no no.
Thanks for informing us. I will be using the app.
Now to get a iPhone mount.
Dan
Hope the thief does not steal the iPhone being used as camera

I use this app to watch my dogs at home and away. You need to keep the remote phone plugged in and have a wifi connection, but it works good. There is a couple of second delay but I would expect that. I had an old iPhone that was cracked, but the camera worked so it turned out to be a great repurpose. You can even have more than one and select them remotely. It's pretty cool. Give it a try. All you need is a spare phone.

With four devices, the dog could watch you as well. *smile*
