    Hi,

    My father cares for my grandmother and we were wondering is there a camera that can be set up to link to his Android so he can have a live feed while he is out of the house?

    Don't know much about phones or tech so any help would be great :)

    I do have a spare one I'm not using. I'll give this a go when I'm home at the weekend.

    Thanks.

    Better off getting a 40-50 Euro wireless IP camera. Once set up for the first time, all you have to do is plug it into a power socket and off you go. And no need to worry about battery running out like on a phone.

    You can get them in HD too, check the res of them. I got mine from China but that does take a few weeks. You might also want one that pans and tilts depending on the room it's in and what you need to view.
