Yes. With the right CCTV system, you can view live camera feeds, play back recorded footage, receive motion alerts, and export video clips - all from your phone. This is one of the biggest advantages of a modern CCTV setup over older systems that required a dedicated monitor.
The UniFi Protect system that Doberman installs comes with a free mobile app available on both Android and iOS. There is no monthly subscription - once the system is installed, remote access is included at no extra cost. You can watch any camera live, scrub through a timeline of recorded footage, and download clips directly to your phone.
The app also sends push notifications when motion is detected. You can customise which cameras send alerts, set detection zones to ignore areas like busy roads, and adjust sensitivity so you are not overwhelmed with notifications every time a cat walks past.
Remote access works from anywhere with an internet connection - not just when you are on your home Wi-Fi. Whether you are at work, on holiday, or just upstairs, you get the same full access to your cameras. Multiple family members can have the app installed on their own phones too.
During every installation, Doberman sets up the app on your phone and walks you through live view, playback, exporting clips, and configuring alerts. You will not be left trying to figure it out from a manual.
