Any known IP Camera app that doesn't cause camera heating?

[yellowdart64]

Hi all,

I am trying to use an IP Camera app on my Nexus 10 to make sure my doggy is doing ok while I am at work, but till now all the app I have tried causes camera overheating which makes me a little bit worried.
I have tried this one:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/detais?id=com.ipphonecamera
And this app: IP Camera Home Security - Apps on Google Play

Last app is the best so far for accessing camera anywhere but still overheats my device.

Any suggestions? Is this normal?
Thank you.

Hi @yellowdart64

What is overheating, the camera or the phone running the app?

If it is the camera overheating then I am pretty confident that the app is not causing the overheating, it is more likely that you just have a cheap consumer camera that doesn't have a very high operating temperature and if it is positioned indoors during this summer heat it is likely just the internal temperature of the house causing the camera to overheat.

We would recommend moving the camera to a cooler/shadier position or if that is not possible replacing the camera with a model that can operate at higher temperatures (maybe look for an outdoor model).
