Connect to the camera via IP Address

If your Mevo camera doesn’t appear in the Mevo App, you can manually connect it using one of the following methods:

  • Using the default IP address for Hotspot Mode
  • Using the camera’s IP address from your local network (Wi-Fi or Ethernet)
  • Using the last 5 characters of the camera's serial number (iOS only)

All three options use the same manual entry screen within the app, shown below.

IP entry in Mevo app

Option 1: Hotspot Mode (Default IP)

  1. Power on your Mevo camera.
  2. Open the Mevo App. At the “Switch on your Mevo” screen, tap IP in the bottom-right corner.
  3. Enter 192.168.17.1 and tap OK.

This IP only works in Hotspot Mode. It will not work for Wi-Fi or Ethernet connections.

Your camera should now appear in the app to connect.

Option 2: Local Wi-Fi or Ethernet

If your camera is connected to the same network via Wi-Fi or Ethernet (Mevo Boost), follow these steps:

  1. Find your camera's IP address from your router, DHCP server, or connected device list.
  2. Open the Mevo App. Tap IP at the “Switch on your Mevo” screen.
  3. Enter the IP address from your network and tap OK.

Do not use the default Hotspot IP in this case. It will not work on a local network.

Your camera should now populate in the app to connect.

Option 3: Using Serial Number (iOS Only)

  1. Flip your camera over and locate the serial number (under the camera for Mevo Plus, on the back for Mevo Start).
  2. Write down the last 5 characters of the serial number.
  3. In the Mevo App, tap IP at the “Switch on your Mevo” screen.
  4. Enter the last 5 characters and tap OK.

Your camera should now appear in the app to connect.
