FloofCam Guide
Turn an old phone into a pet camera (free, no app)
You can turn an old phone into a live pet camera in minutes, without installing an app. FloofCam is fully browser-based, needs no download, and uses a simple 2-device setup: one device becomes the camera and the other is used to watch live.
Most pet camera apps require downloads or subscriptions. If you want a free pet camera with no app to install, you can start right away on FloofCam.
How it works
FloofCam uses two devices. One becomes the camera, and the other is used to watch live. This lets you use an old phone as a pet camera while checking in from a second phone, tablet, or laptop.
Step-by-step setup
- Open FloofCam on your old phone.
- Allow camera access.
- Keep the browser open.
- Open FloofCam on your second device.
- Open “Your Cameras”.
- Start watching live.
Common issues
- If the camera is not showing, make sure camera permissions were allowed on the old phone.
- If the page was closed or the screen locked, reopen FloofCam and keep the browser active.
- If you cannot see your camera on the second device, make sure you are logged in to the same account.
Why use a browser-based pet camera
A browser-based setup is simpler than downloading another camera app. There are no app installs, it works on phones, tablets, and laptops, and it gives you a free pet camera with no app when you use devices you already own.
If you also want a larger screen setup, you can follow the same idea when you use an iPad as a pet monitor, or use an old laptop as a pet monitor.
