What is SpyCam 2.0?
SpyCam turns a Mac into a motion-activated camera that records video only when it detects movement. The new Surveillance Mode starts recording the moment you lock the screen and stops when you unlock, so the app never films while you are at your desk.
Problem
Users previously relied on continuous recording security systems or manual video monitoring, leading to high storage consumption and privacy risks when filming unnecessarily.
Solution
A macOS app offering motion-activated recording and Surveillance Mode triggered by screen lock, enabling efficient, privacy-focused security monitoring.
Customers
Mac users, remote workers, small business owners, and privacy-conscious individuals needing cost-effective, automated security.
Unique Features
Seamless integration with Mac’s screen-lock state to control recording, eliminating manual intervention while ensuring privacy.
