How Do the Mevo Cameras Communicate With My Mobile Device?

Mevo cameras communicate to your mobile devices by being on the same wifi or hardline network. The cameras also create their own hotspots, to make it possible to connect 1:1 with your camera and mobile device. To bridge this connection, the camera uses Bluetooth or Bonjour to hand off specific information to make the connection possible through wifi or ethernet. 

 

In order for the Mevo App to detect a nearby Camera, you must have Bluetooth enabled on your mobile device. If you launch the Mevo app but do not have Bluetooth enabled, the app will prompt you to turn it on. Tap Settings.

You will be redirected to the Bluetooth settings menu. Toggle the switch to On. It will take a brief moment to turn on.

You will see the camera listed under your Bluetooth. Selecting it will not allow you to connect, you must connect via local WIFI or the "Mevo" Hotspot listed under WIFI.

Once you have Bluetooth turned on, go back to the Mevo app and you can proceed with pairing the app to your camera
