Connecting and Adding your Device
NOTE: When adding a new device, it may take 5–10 minutes before you begin receiving notifications.
A device can be added to the Night Owl Connect App by using the application's Smart Auto Detection or
through a QR Code Setup. With Smart Auto Detection, your NVR will automatically be detected by the Night
Owl Connect software, making connecting easy! To use this preferred method, ensure your Smart Device and
NVR are both on the same network.
