Removing an Imou camera from the app means you’ll lose access to the camera’s live view. However, if you want to remove a camera from the app, make sure you do it correctly and safely. Most users remove cameras because they’re no longer in use or because the camera is broken, while others do so because they want to sell the camera to someone else.
In this article, I’ll explain the process for properly and safely removing an Imou camera from the app, based on my personal experience.
Deleting All Recordings from the Camera and Resetting the Camera to Factory Settings
Before I remove the Imou camera from the app, I’ll delete the saved recordings.
I take this step if I’m no longer using my Imou camera and sell it to someone else. By deleting the recordings, the new owner won’t be able to play them back. This is something many users overlook. If they sell the camera to someone else without deleting the recordings, that person will be able to view the stored footage. Especially if the camera was previously installed in your room, that person will certainly be able to see what you’ve been doing in your room all this time.
Next, I’ll reset the Imou camera to its factory settings. This is so the camera can easily connect to the new account.
