Overview

The Second Camera feature is designed to provide a seamless, secure way to share additional video perspectives during a session utilizing a wifi enabled mobile device. To ensure privacy and provide a smooth experience, here is a breakdown of how the feature operates.

In this article, you will learn:

  • What second camera does

  • What second camera does not do

What Second Camera DOES

The Second Camera acts as a temporary "bridge" between your mobile device and your active browser session.

  • Live Streaming: It accesses the device’s camera output in real-time while the browser link is open.

  • Automatic Feed Termination: The stream immediately stops if the browser is closed or the user switches to another application (such as answering a text or checking email).

  • Web-Based Access: It functions entirely within mobile browser, requiring only a URL or QR code to activate.

What Second Camera Does NOT Do

This feature has been built with a "privacy-first" architecture. It is strictly limited to the video feed you see on your screen.

  • No Local Storage: It does not store any video files, photos, or data on your device's internal memory.

  • No Software Installation: Users do not need to download an app or install any plugins. It runs natively in your existing mobile browser.

  • Strict Data Isolation: The feature cannot access photos, contacts, messages, or any other apps on the device.

  • No Tracking: Location or usage habits are not tracked through the Second Camera link.
