Yes, the Cinmoore app is free to download and use. All core features — including live streaming, motion alerts, two-way audio, and local SD card recording — are available at no cost. Optional cloud storage subscriptions start at $2.99/month (Secure Plus Monthly) for users who want cloud-based event recording and extended storage.
How do I set up my Cinmoore camera?
Setting up a Cinmoore camera is simple: (1) Download the Cinmoore app from the App Store or Google Play and create an account, (2) Tap the '+' button to add a new device, (3) Power on your camera and follow the on-screen instructions, (4) Scan the QR code displayed in the app with your camera to complete WiFi pairing. The camera supports 2.4GHz WiFi networks. Ensure your phone and camera are on the same network during setup.
What cameras are compatible with the Cinmoore app?
The Cinmoore app works exclusively with Cinmoore-branded cameras, including: the MonkeyKing (BC2U) indoor wireless camera, 3K Indoor 360° camera with AI tracking and WiFi 6, 4G AOR solar-powered outdoor cameras (no WiFi required), and 2.5K wireless WiFi cameras with IP65 weather resistance. All models pair directly with the app for setup and management.
What is pre-roll recording and how does it work?
Pre-roll recording is a feature that captures 5 seconds of video before a motion event is triggered. This means when you review an alert, you'll see what happened just before the motion was detected — not just after. This is particularly useful for capturing the full context of security events, such as seeing someone approach before they trigger the motion sensor.
What cloud storage plans does Cinmoore offer?
Cinmoore offers several cloud storage tiers: 300MB for 7 days ($1.99), 1GB for 30 days ($5.99), 2GB for 30 days ($10.00), 12GB for 365 days ($59.99), Unlimited for 30 days ($17.99), Unlimited for 365 days ($179.99), Secure Plus Monthly ($2.99/month), and Secure Plus Annual ($29.99/year). Some cameras include a 90-day free cloud trial. Local microSD card storage (up to 256GB) is always available as a free alternative.
Can I share my Cinmoore camera with family members?
Yes, Cinmoore supports two sharing methods: (1) Add family members to your 'Home' — they'll have access to all cameras in that home, or (2) Share individual cameras with specific people for more granular control. Shared users can view live feeds, receive alerts, and review recordings without needing your account credentials.
What AI detection features does Cinmoore support?
Cinmoore cameras feature AI-powered smart detection that can distinguish between humans, pets, crying sounds, and vehicles. This intelligent filtering significantly reduces false alerts caused by wind, shadows, or passing wildlife. You can customize which detection types trigger notifications for each camera individually.
Does Cinmoore work without WiFi?
Most Cinmoore cameras require WiFi for initial setup and remote access through the app. However, cameras with microSD card storage can record locally when WiFi is temporarily unavailable. For locations without WiFi, Cinmoore offers 4G AOR solar-powered models that use cellular connectivity instead of WiFi for always-on remote access.
How does the Security Mode feature work?
Cinmoore's Security Mode lets you create customizable profiles — Home, Away, and Armed — that control which cameras are active and what notifications you receive. For example, in 'Home' mode you might disable indoor cameras but keep outdoor ones active. In 'Away' mode, all cameras can be set to maximum sensitivity with full notifications. Switch modes manually or set schedules.
Is my data private and secure with Cinmoore?
According to the developer, the Cinmoore app does not collect or share user data with third parties. Video feeds are encrypted end-to-end, and the app includes a privacy mode that can physically disable the camera lens when not in use. All cloud storage data is encrypted and accessible only through your authenticated account.

Clean design and easy navigation. The categorized events feature makes it really simple to find what you're looking for.

Good security camera app with solid AI detection. The pre-roll recording feature is especially useful — you can see what happened right before the motion event. Cloud plans are reasonably priced.

Perfect for keeping an eye on my dogs when I'm at work. The pet detection works great and I only get alerts when it matters. Night vision quality is impressive for the price.
Google Play
Easy setup with QR code scanning. I have three cameras around the house and the family sharing feature lets my husband also check feeds. Daily security reports are a nice touch.
Google Play
Solid app for a relatively new brand. The security modes (Home/Away/Armed) are well thought out. Two-way audio is clear. Would be nice to have a web/desktop version in the future.
Google Play
Using the solar-powered outdoor camera and this app together. No wiring needed, battery lasts forever with the solar panel. Motion detection is accurate and notifications come through quickly.
