I got an old iphone 4s, dont know how to deal with it since I have bought a new one.

I see people saying I can turn the old phone into a security camera by using a certain of apps.

This is the instruction that I refer to: make-iphone-ipad-a-security-camera/
Has anybody try those apps successfully? and how did they perform?

Which one is the best? I dont wanna download and test them one by one, so I'd like to ask your opinions.

Or what else can I do with the old thing??? Please give me some hints, bro.:confused::confused::confused:

Manything home security camera app with cloud DVR, motion alerts and two-way talk by Manything
https://appsto.re/us/qkkiM.i

Not sure if compatible with 4S but used this on my 6 and worked really well...

I've used Manything in the past with my iPad 2 and whatever iPhone I had at the time and it worked quite well. The motion detection feature was excellent. I don't need the app now, but I wouldn't hesitate to return to using it if necessary.
