Meari is a smart home security app developed by Hangzhou Meari Technology Co., Ltd. It allows you to monitor your home or business remotely through live video streaming, recorded video playback, motion-triggered push notifications, two-way audio, and multi-device management — all from your smartphone or tablet.
Download the Meari app from the App Store or Google Play, create an account, then tap "Add Device." You can add cameras by scanning the QR code on the device or using AP pairing mode. Follow the on-screen instructions to connect the camera to your WiFi network. Once connected, the camera will appear on your dashboard.
Common causes include: the camera not being in pairing mode, using an incompatible WiFi frequency (some cameras only support 2.4GHz), incorrect WiFi password, camera too far from the router, or network firewall blocking the connection. Try resetting the camera, moving it closer to your router, and ensuring you're on the correct WiFi band.
The Meari app is free to download and use. Core features including live streaming, TF card playback, motion alerts, and two-way audio are available at no cost. TF card local storage requires no subscription. Optional cloud storage subscriptions are available for users who want extended video storage in the cloud.
Meari supports a wide range of devices including indoor PTZ cameras, outdoor PTZ cameras, dual-lens PTZ cameras, battery cameras, video doorbells, baby monitors, pet feeders, outdoor bullet cameras, 4G cameras, AOV battery cameras, floodlight cameras, and NVR kits manufactured by Hangzhou Meari Technology.
Yes, Meari offers optional cloud storage subscriptions for extended video storage. You can also use TF cards (up to 256GB) for free local storage with no subscription required. Cloud storage provides the advantage of accessing footage even if the camera or TF card is damaged or stolen.
The Meari app is primarily designed for iOS and Android mobile devices. On Mac, you can run the iOS version on Macs with Apple Silicon (M1 or later) running macOS 12.0 or later. The app also supports visionOS 1.0 or later for Apple Vision Pro.
Open the Meari app, select your camera, and tap the playback button. You can browse recorded footage by date and time. The app supports playback from both TF card local storage and cloud storage (if subscribed). You can also take screenshots and share video clips from recorded footage.
Meari uses end-to-end encryption for video streams and data transmission. Hangzhou Meari Technology maintains ISO 27001/27701/27017/27018 certifications and operates a PSIRT (Product Security Incident Response Team) program with CVSSv3 vulnerability scoring and regular security audits.
If you see an unexpected charge from Meari, it is likely from a cloud storage subscription. Check your subscription status in the Meari app under account settings. You can cancel cloud storage subscriptions from within the app or through the App Store/Google Play subscription management. Contact [email protected] for billing inquiries.
Great app for managing all my Meari cameras. Setup was smooth and the live view is crisp. Love the two-way audio feature for talking to my kids.
Reliable security camera app. Motion alerts work well and I can check my home from anywhere. The cloud storage plans are reasonably priced.
Using Meari with two indoor cameras and a doorbell. The app handles multiple devices seamlessly. Playback from TF card is convenient.
Bought a Meari pet feeder and camera combo. The feeding schedule feature is fantastic. I can watch and feed my cat while at work.
Decent camera app overall. Night vision quality depends on the camera model. Would appreciate faster loading times but it gets the job done.
Set up three cameras in my small shop. Motion detection alerts are prompt and the playback works great. Saves me from hiring a security guard.
Basic but functional. The app does what it promises — live view, playback, and alerts. UI could use a modern refresh but core features work.
The baby monitor features are excellent. Feeding reminders, two-way talk, and the ability to play lullabies through the camera are amazing.
Managing cameras across my villa with Meari. The outdoor PTZ cameras work well with the app. Battery camera connection could be more stable.
Affordable cameras with a free app. Cloud storage costs extra but TF card recording works fine. Good value for basic home security needs.
