Give your old phone a new role

goGPS Drive in this scenario

goGPS Drive lets a compatible Android phone act as a Security Camera. Place it in the area you want to monitor: movement triggers video recording. With Drive connected, the main phone follows new recordings.

Step-by-step setup

Install the app on the camera phone, grant camera permission and provide a fixed position, power and internet.
Connect the appropriate Drive account on both phones. Choose Security Camera on the old phone and Main Phone on the one you carry.
For live video, compare security codes, pair the phones and keep the camera screen open.
Trigger a test movement. Check video, notifications, live access and battery status.

Before you start
