Stop getting alerts
about yourself.
Snooze every camera before you step outside, and your system stays armed the whole time.
Most of the alerts are you
Front door, driveway, back yard, garage. Anything that moves gets an alert, and every phone in the house gets it.
Why it happens
A camera can't tell you apart from anyone else. It sees movement at the door and sends an alert, whether that's a stranger or you with the recycling.
What OffDuty does
Snooze before you step outside and those alerts don't arrive. Two minutes later it's back to normal on its own.
Multiple ways to snooze
One action, two minutes. Repeat it for more time, up to ten.
Tap it
Open OffDuty and hit snooze. One tap, and a live countdown starts.
Say it
"Hey Siri, snooze my OffDuty cameras." Your phone stays in your pocket and the app never opens.
Long-press it
Hold the app icon on your home screen and pick Snooze All. Also in Spotlight and Shortcuts.
Press a button
Optional. A BlueCharm Bluetooth button by the door. Press it and your phone snoozes the cameras from inside your pocket. Sold separately. See setup.
Snoozing doesn't disarm anything
A snooze is only a snooze
Snoozing pauses notifications and nothing else. Your system stays armed, your cameras keep recording, and no setting is changed. You just stop getting pinged for the two minutes you're walking through the door.
A snooze can't fail open
The countdown runs on your camera provider's servers, not on your phone. Close the app, lose signal, or flatten your battery, and your alerts still come back on schedule.
Arming, disarming, and turning motion detection on or off are separate controls you choose to use. Those changes stay until you change them back, exactly as they would in your provider's own app.
Quietly well behaved
No account with us
You sign in to your camera service, not to us. We never see your password and hold nothing of yours.
No tracking
No advertising SDKs, no third-party analytics, nothing sold or shared. Anonymous usage data only, with an off switch.
Free
No subscription, no ads, and nothing to unlock.
Per-camera control
Snooze everything, one system, or a single camera, each with its own live countdown. End a snooze early whenever you want.
Arm and motion controls
Arm or disarm a system, and switch motion detection on or off for any single camera, without leaving the app. Reorder your systems and cameras so the ones you use are on top.
Stays in sync
Snooze somewhere else and OffDuty knows. It re-checks every twenty seconds, so there's one source of truth.

The latest recordings with inline playback, so you can see what set them off without switching apps.
