Most of us live a fairly busy life and that is especially so when we have a family to look after. It can be quite the worry when we’re rushing home and the darn traffic is stopping us from catching up with our partner and kids once more. When you couple this up with the ever rising crime wave that we are experiencing, it’s a wonder why we bother even leaving the home in the morning. But needs must and we have to do what we can, which is why these applications are so awesome. We are taking a closer look at a couple of Android Smartphone Apps that allow us to monitor our family and home whilst out and about. They link up with some fabulous home security systems that will also do a number on any intruders 24/7.

The developers of this fine application are alsoresponsible for an acclaimed home security system. You’ll need both of these to get the maximum benefit but it is certainly worth the outlay. Can you imagine the feeling of being able to control your home’s energy appliances as well as the all-important security issues? No matter where you are in the world, as long as you have a connection, this bad boy will allow you to monitor your home via live CCTV, play around with the heating and cooling systems and the peace of mind that this all brings is well worth the price tag. You can lock and unlock your doors as you wish and also ensure that you kids are behaving as well as spying on your partner whilst you are on those dreaded business trips!

Our second home security Android application will certainly suit those out there with a limited budget. Instead of having to spend thousands on a state of the art security system, this approach is pretty low cost, and then some. Essentially you can turn your old PC, tablet, laptop or Smartphone into a CCTV system that really works. Once you have installed the application onto your Android Smartphone and the target device, the fun really begins. It will run on most operating systems and you can connect more than one slave device up to the system. You can then schedule recordings at any time of night and day and also review this from your Android Smartphone at any time you like. Any interaction between your Smartphone and recording device is totally encrypted and you can forward the recordings via email if required.
