You can add a new camera to the CYVIO App using one of the following two methods:

1. Add by Scanning QR Code

Step 2: Align the scanning frame with the QR code on the bottom of the camera or on the packaging box. Keep the lens clear and wait for the system to automatically recognize it.

Step 3: After the QR code is successfully scanned, enter the camera’s initial password in the pop-up password field, then click the “Next” button and wait for the device to complete the connection. (Illustration shown below)

Step 4: After the connection is successful, enter a custom name for the camera on the naming page (it is recommended to include the location), then click “Next” to proceed to the next step. (Illustration shown below)

Step 5: When the system displays “Added successfully”, click the “Finish” button to return to the Home page. The newly added camera will appear in the device list. (Illustration shown below)
