iCamSource is a free companion feed-broadcasting software developed by SKJM, LLC that turns your computer webcams or mobile devices into standalone network security cameras. It captures live audio and video data and securely streams it over the internet to the premium iCam Mobile App, allowing you to remotely monitor your home, pets, or business from anywhere. 🛠️ Core Features & Capabilities

Live Streaming: Pipes real-time video and audio over Wi-Fi, 3G, 4G, and LTE networks.

Motion Detection: Triggers automatic event recording when movement occurs in the camera’s field of view.

Detection Zones: Allows you to specify active detection boundaries to prevent false alarms from pets.

Push Notifications: Sends instant mobile alerts and Apple Watch summaries directly to your receiving device.

Flexible Scheduling: Automates when motion monitoring and alerts switch on or off based on your weekly routine. 💻 Ecosystem & Architecture

The software operates as a dual-component architecture divided into a source component and a receiver component:

The Source (iCamSource): This is the free backend software. It runs on a computer (Windows/Mac) connected to built-in webcams or USB cameras. Alternatively, you can use the iCamSource Mobile App to turn an old iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch into an active camera unit.

The Receiver (iCam App): This is the premium mobile application you install on your primary phone or tablet to watch the live matrix grid (supporting up to 4 concurrent cameras) and review history. ☁️ Upgrades & Subscriptions

While the core streaming software ecosystem handles local routing for a small, one-time app purchase fee, SKJM, LLC offers additional paid premium services:

iCam Cloud: An off-site backup service starting at \(4.99/month that saves encrypted motion events securely online so records are preserved even if your computer or local cameras are stolen.</p> <p><strong>Unlimited Private Proxy Data</strong>: A \)4.99/month subscription for users operating on complex, restrictive corporate firewalls or IPv6 setups that require dedicated relay traffic.

If you plan to set this up, let me know what hardware you intend to use (e.g., Mac, Windows, or an old iPhone) and how many cameras you want to link so I can guide you through the setup. iCamSource Mobile – App Store
