CamRidge - Remote Camera

CamRidge is a remote camera app that lets you control another Android phone's camera from a distance using direct Wi-Fi — no internet, no server, no data costs.

Perfect for photographers, videographers, journalists, home monitoring, wildlife photography, group shots, or anyone who needs to capture photos and videos remotely at full phone camera quality.

HOW IT WORKS
One phone is set up as the camera (Camera mode), while the other acts as the remote controller (Controller mode). Both devices connect directly over Wi-Fi on the same network or hotspot — no internet connection required at all. Range up to 50 meters indoors and further outdoors.

WHY CAMRIDGE
Unlike similar apps that require internet or cloud accounts, CamRidge works entirely locally. Your photos and videos never leave your devices. No uploads, no third-party servers, no cloud subscription fees.

SECURITY & PRIVACY
CamRidge is built with privacy as a top priority. All communication happens directly between two devices on the local network. No data is sent to the internet. Photos and videos are saved directly to your device storage.
