If you use either our Android or iOS versions of CamerAlert then you can benefit from over-the-air updates of the database. While the main database is updated weekly the smartphone apps can download a live snapshot at any time using either WiFi or your mobile data. The whole database weighs in at around 400KB so won’t be too hard on any data allowance you have.

It’s very simple to update the database too. Every time the database is updated you will be prompted with a spoken warning and all you need to do is go to the settings and then in ‘Manage cameras’ tap on ‘Download database’ – and that’s it! For full details you can refer to the iOS Manual or the Android Manual.
