What Exactly Is Camhi?

Camhi is an app built for Android users to help them view footage from their CCTV cameras. It allows you to view live and play stored footage from the camera in the event you need to look at something happening at the moment or look back on a past event that occurred that your camera caught.

Camhi is one of several apps on the market that perform these functions for you. Let’s talk a little bit more about how to use Camhi on your home or business computer and what benefits come from using a PC versus a phone. Read on.

 

How To Use Camhi On PC

With several great features we will talk about later, Camhi is a popular choice when it comes to viewing your CCTV footage. One thing you may not know is that it was designed to be used on mobile devices only.

Thankfully there is a way to get it on to your computer safely and quite easily. This usually can be done in a matter of a few minutes.

To get an app like Camhi, that is normally for mobile devices only, onto your desktop or laptop you need an Emulator app on your computer.

An emulator is an app you download that allows “mobile only” apps to run on your PC the same way that they would run on your phone. Most of these apps won’t cost you anything and are easy to install.

We’re going to show you two popular emulators and how to use them to download Camhi onto your PC. The two we’re talking about today are Bluestacks and Nox App Player. Let’s start with Bluestacks. Read on.

 

Bluestacks Emulator

Bluestacks is one of the most popular emulators on the market. Most people that use it are gamers trying to get their Android games playable on their computers. It can run any apps on your PC, including Camhi.

The biggest pro to Bluestacks is the ability to create keyboard shortcuts known as hotkeys.

The biggest con of Bluestacks is that it does run advertisements which can annoy some people and slow down the app slightly.

Camhi App Features

It’s important to know what features apps have so you’ll know if it will perform the necessary function you’re looking for. Here we talk about the main features the Camhi app has, why they matter and what use you can get out of them.

 

Real-Time Viewability

A great feature is being able to see what’s happening in front of your security camera in real time. This can be convenient if you’re on to go and need to know what’s happening at your store or in your home.

You could use this feature to see who’s knocking on the door, to keep an eye on an employee who causes trouble or to keep watch over the entryways of your house.

 

Photo Taking Feature

Camhi comes with the ability to take photos of live video footage. This can be helpful for identifying people, animals, license plates and more.

When using Camhi on your PC, you’ll be able to see the object or person you need to grab a screenshot of. The larger screen of a PC allows for a clearer, bigger picture than you’d get using your mobile device.

 

PTZ Control

Of course, your camera has to be equipped to perform PTZ (pan-tilt-zoom) but if it can, you can control it right from your computer. Being able to pan, tilt or zoom makes seeing objects, people are certain areas in that are out of the frame or too far away much more visible.

 

Video Playback Via SD Card

Another great feature that Camhi has, is the ability to playback previous footage and save footage to your phones SD card. This can be great if you need to look back on footage from a previous date or if you have something important you find on the footage that you’d like to save to look at more closely later.

Since you’re wanting to use Camhi on a PC, you’ll be able to save the footage right to your computer and can create files to store video clips in to look back on later.

 

Time Zone Synchronization

Maybe not the flashiest feature available on the app but it could definitely come in handy, especially if you caught anything illegal on your camera, Camhi allows the time on the footage to match the time on your mobile device.

This can be great if you see something on the footage that you need a timestamp for or if you need to view footage from one time of day to another.
