Help Keep it private

Deleting your recordings and data

Delete a clip, an event, a pet or a whole camera, and how long the server keeps anything.

To delete a recording on the Mac:

  1. In the Recordings list, right-click (or Control-click) the recording.
  2. Choose Delete….
  3. Choose Move to Trash. The clip goes to the Trash with its filmstrip. Empty the Trash to remove it for good.

OdinCam also deletes old recordings for you; see "Keeping the folder from filling up".

To delete events from the server, on your iPhone or iPad:

  1. Open the camera.
  2. Swipe an event in Recent events and delete it, or tap Clear All and confirm with Delete All.
  3. The event, its picture and what was seen are deleted from the server, so they disappear on all your devices.

The server deletes events by itself after 7 days. It never keeps clips or Live View.

To remove a pet on the Mac:

  1. Open Settings › Pets.
  2. Open the menu beside the pet and choose Remove (for example Remove Rex…).
  3. Choose Remove to confirm. Its photos are deleted from the Mac.

To stop a phone or iPad using a camera:

  1. On that device, open the camera's settings.
  2. Tap Forget This Mac… and confirm. The device is signed out of that camera, on the server as well as on the device.

To take a device out of your household, use Remove in Settings › Devices on the Mac, or in Household on an iPhone or iPad. It is signed out of all your cameras: it can't open new pictures or video, see events or turn monitoring on or off.
