Using Your Camera; Eview Mobile App - Q-See EasyView QN6401X User Manual

6. USING YOUR CAMERA

As stated before, both the Apple and Android versions of eView operate in the
same manner. The tablet versions also have the same functions, but are laid out
differently to take advantage of the larger screen size. The web application can
show up to four cameras at the same time.
Whether you're using a mobile app or the web-based one, bandwidth is always
a consideration. This not only includes the amount of video streaming to your
device, but the number of other devices competing for your network's attention.
Other wireless devices are attempting to access your router at the same time as
your camera. They will not interfere with the signal to or from your camera, but too
many wireless devices on the same network can create an "electronic traffic jam"
slowing communication speed. Multiple users accessing the camera at the same
time can also cause delays or problems connecting.
On mobile devices connecting via 3G or 4G, please keep in mind that streaming
video from live cameras will count against your data plan. You can gauge this
data usage by checking your current usage, then connecting to a camera for five
minutes and then checking your data usage again.
