Once you add a camera to the app, you become the admin of the camera. If you want to add an additional user to watch the camera on multiple devices, let's say, you want to make another person (your family member or your friend) be able to access the camera on his or her phone, you can share your camera with that person. The shared user needs to download the app and register a new account first. Below are the sharing steps:
