Remote Camera Not Working ​

If your remote camera is not functioning properly, follow these steps to troubleshoot:

1. Check Network Connection ​

  • Ensure Both Devices Are on the Same Wi-Fi Network
    • Both the remote camera device and the controlling device must be connected to the same Wi-Fi network.
    • Note: Remote connections may not work on public or business networks due to their security settings.

  3. Configure Remote Camera

    • Tap Configure and enter the address as shown in the remote camera app.
  4. Connect

Ensure that Local Network access is enabled for both devices:

  1. Open Settings

    • Go to the Settings app on each device.
  2. Locate Stop Motion Studio

    • Swipe down and find Stop Motion Studio.
  3. Enable Local Network

    • Make sure Local Network access is enabled for Stop Motion Studio on both devices.

4. Restart Wi-Fi Connection ​

If the remote camera still does not connect:
