When watching a live view of your SkyBell, you are able to take a photo, speak to your visitor, and end the live view.
Taking a photo
Pressing the gray camera button will take a photo of what the SkyBell sees and save it to your mobile device's camera roll.
Speaking with Visitors
When watching live, you are able to speak with visitors similarly to an intercom. By default, the microphone is muted and shows a cross through the button. Holding the microphone button will cause the cross will disappear, and you will be able to speak to your visitor. Release the button in order to hear their response.
If your visitor is having trouble hearing your voice, you may need to adjust your Live Stream Volume setting.
Ending the live view
When you tap the red phone icon to end the live view, the recording will be uploaded to SkyBell's cloud servers and can be viewed in the Activity page of the SkyBell app.
