The Smartest Outdoor Watcher You Already Own
Most garden or pool cameras are expensive, low-resolution, noisy, and keep your footage in their cloud. RECAM flips the script: the old phone in your drawer becomes a precision outdoor security device powered by hardware you already own and on-device AI — the full CCTV stack with no camera to buy.
Place it facing your garden, your pool, or your back gate — and RECAM takes care of everything:
- Human detection — perfect to catch intruders or unauthorised pool use.
- Animal detection — fox crossing your lawn at 2 a.m.? Boom, notification.
- Smart motion alerts — filters useless movements from leaves or shadows.
- After dark — keep a garden or porch light in view: RECAM has no infrared night vision.
When Something Happens, You’ll Know Instantly
Whether it’s a fox raiding your bins, a neighbour’s dog sneaking a swim, or someone hopping your fence — RECAM sees it, analyses it on-device, and sends you a private, encrypted alert.
And here’s the fun part: you can watch the clip right there in the alert. Sometimes it’s adorable. Sometimes it’s weird. Sometimes it’s very useful.
Pool Monitoring With No Wiring and No Camera to Buy
Unauthorised pool access is a real issue — especially during summer. With RECAM:
- You receive an immediate alert when a person enters the pool area.
- You can open the live feed and see for yourself.
- You can act right away: call a neighbour, a security guard, or local police.
No expensive doorbell. No cloud uploads. No wiring. RECAM streams end-to-end encrypted video — direct between your devices when your network allows, with an encrypted blind relay fallback that can never read it. What happens in your garden stays for your eyes only.
Perfect for Gardens, Driveways, Patios, and Pool Zones
RECAM is incredibly flexible. One old phone pointed at the right spot gives you:
- Full-day garden monitoring
- Evening monitoring wherever a garden or porch light reaches
- Instant alerts for any unusual movement
- Replayable clips for fun or a second look
Set up RECAM once and forget it — it will quietly watch over your outdoor space, day or night, while keeping your data private and local.

FAQ
Can I monitor my pool or garden using RECAM?
Yes! RECAM turns your old phone — iPhone or Android — into an outdoor camera that can detect humans, animals, or motion — perfect for pool safety or garden security.
Does RECAM work at night?
Yes, with some light in view: a garden, porch or street light. RECAM has no infrared night vision, so in full darkness the camera sees very little.
Do I need a subscription to use RECAM?
Yes, after your first 3 days. Free to start, two ways. With no plan at all, live video and AI detection alerts are free for your first 3 days, with no payment details. Or, as a new subscriber, start the yearly plan’s free trial: every Pro feature for 3 days, including the remote siren, push to talk and clip replay, then £44.99/year unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the trial ends. Prefer monthly? £4.99/month, no trial, cancel anytime. Without Pro, the camera device keeps detecting and recording on its own, and a notification still says something was detected, but not what; the viewer shows no live video. There’s no camera to buy, no per-camera fee and no cloud copy of your video.
