Frequently Asked Questions
Can I share with family and friends?
Yes! You can share access to all GEENI devices— cameras,
plugs, bulbs, doorbells, etc.— with family & friends. In the
Geeni app, press the “Profile” button and click on “Device
Sharing” to give or revoke sharing permissions. In order to
share, the other user should have already downloaded the
Geeni app and registered an account.
Recording and Micro SD Card Usage:
Without a Micro SD card (optional, sold separately), the
smart Wi-Fi camera can show live camera video, save
screenshots or videos of the camera stream to your phone
for later, and record still snapshots of motion alerts when
notifications are turned on. Installing a Micro SD card
will further enable video recording and playback from
your phone. When the card is installed, the camera will
continuously record and play back video to your phone until
the card is full (up to 128GB supported). Video is encrypted
and only viewable through the Geeni app on your phone, so
do not try removing the MicroSD card to view video.
How Many Devices Can I Control?
Geeni app can control an unlimited amount of devices in an
unlimited amount of locations. Your router may have a limit of
how many devices can be connected to one router.
My GEENI device has a funny name. How do I rename it?
From your main device list, click on one of the devices you
want to rename, press the “•••” button on the top right for
advanced settings, and click Modify Device Name (or Modify
Group Name, if applicable). You’ll then be able to choose a
more familiar name.
How Much Video Can the Camera Record?
Depending on video quality, the camera will use around 1GB
of storage per day, so a 32GB card can provide weeks of
continuous video. As the card fills up, the oldest footage will
automatically be replaced by new video, so you don’t have to
ever worry about running out of storage space.
What’s the Wireless Range?
The range of your home Wi-Fi is heavily dependent on your
home router and the conditions of the room. Check with your
router specifications for exact range data.
If my Wi-Fi/Internet goes down, will Geeni still work?
GEENI products need to be connected to Wi-Fi in order to use
them remotely.
