2. Controlling the COUNTcam 2

Using the COUNTcam App

Once you have the COUNTcam app installed, 

connect to the COUNTcam 2 wireless network 

through your mobile device. Next, open the 

COUNTcam app on the mobile device connected 

to the COUNTCAM wireless network and wait 

up to 20 seconds for the live stream to appear. 

The COUNTcam app may have some minor 

differences between the iOS and Android 

platform, however this section covers both 

Android and iOS app functionality
Using the COUNTcam app, you are able to do the 

following:

• See the live view of the camera for positioning to 

ensure you are recording the desired recording 

area.

• Start or stop the COUNTcam 2 video recording.
• Check the battery level of the COUNTcam.
• Review recorded video stored on the COUNTcam.
• Format the internal storage on the COUNTcam.

Recording Video 

Once you are connected to COUNTcam 2 through 

the COUNTcam app, you will be able to start 

recording video. To initiate recording, tap the 

orange circular recording button in the center-

bottom of the app (in portrait mode) or the center-

right  of  the  app  (figure  1,  3).  You  will  know  the 

COUNTcam 2 is recording when the red recording 

indicator starts blinking in the app (figure 1,1) and 

the blue LED on the front of COUNTcam 2 is also 

blinking. 

App Functionality

The COUNTcam app has several icons on the sides 

of the screen that serve different functions. This 

section will explain those icons in more detail. 

1. Recording Indicator.

 When the red icon is 

blinking, that means the COUNTcam 2 is 

recording video. The blue LED on the front of 

the COUNTcam 2 should also be blinking to 

indicate the camera is recording. 

2. Battery Meter.

 This icon displays the current 

charge level of the COUNTcam 2's internal 

battery. If you are using a booster pack, this 

indicator 

does not

 represent the booster pack's 

state of charge, it is for the camera only. 

Note: 

the battery meter in the COUNTcam app is 

displayed very close to the battery meter of 

the mobile device running the app. When 

checking the battery level of your COUNTcam, 

make sure you are looking at the COUNTcam 

battery meter and not the mobile device's 

battery meter.

Tip: 

The COUNTcam 2 wireless network will 

appear as ‘COUNTCAM_XXXXXXXXXXXX’ This 

is the Device ID of your COUNTcam 2 and is 

located on the label under the mounting bracket.
