How do I set up WebViewer? – AlfredCamera Help Center

In this article, you can find out steps to set up WebViewer:

Open WebViewer
Enable H264
Enable Notifications
Record Video

Open WebViewer on a computer?

Open the Webviewer in Chrome, Firefox or Safari, and log in to the same account. You’re ready to go! (Make sure you have set up your phone/tablet as Camera before using WebViewer)

For the moment, Motion Detection does not function when you are watching the live feed. If you want Alfred to automatically record clips when there is movement, please end the live session first.

Enable H264 Video Codec

Chrome

Type the URL "chrome://flags/"
Change the H264 setting to "Enabled"

Firefox

Go to setting > Adds on
Change the H264 setting to “Always Activate”

Enable Notifications

Did you ever wish you could get notified when events take place just like how Alfred works on your phone while you are using WebViewer? Now you can! You will be prompted to turn notifications on the first time you log in to the new version:

Choose “Yes, please”

Your browser will ask you to allow notifications. Choose “Allow”

You’re good to go!

Please tap on the bell icon again and you will be asked to confirm you want to allow notifications.
