Description

Watch Tower Pro maps 648,000+ publicly documented surveillance cameras worldwide — government CCTV, police license-plate readers (ALPR), speed and red-light enforcement, traffic monitoring, and dome cameras — and alerts you before you walk or drive into range. Most people pass a dozen cameras a day without noticing. Watch Tower Pro is a privacy-awareness tool: it shows you what's documented so you can make informed decisions about where you go and how you get there. WHAT'S NEW IN 1.4 - Fresh worldwide database: 648,000+ cameras, 66,000 added since the last release. - Report a camera: drop a pin on the map to tell us about one that's missing, or flag a wrong location or type from any camera's detail screen. - Search any city, address, or landmark. - Color-coded markers by camera type, with a legend. WHAT IT DOES - Works completely offline. The entire worldwide database ships inside the app — no signal needed, no server to query. - Color-codes every camera by type so you can tell an ALPR from a traffic cam at a glance. - Optional proximity alerts: a local notification when you enter the range of an alert-eligible camera. Choose which types alert you and how close. - Travel mode widens coverage automatically when you're driving so alerts fire at highway speed. - Nearby list ranks every documented camera within 8 km by distance, with the operator where known. - Directions to any camera, plus a link to its public source record. WHAT IT DOESN'T DO - No accounts. No login. No analytics. No tracking. No ads. - Your location never leaves your device. Alerts use iOS region monitoring entirely on the phone. - We do not collect, store, or transmit any personal data. Camera reports are ordinary emails you send yourself. - We do not include residential cameras (Ring, Blink, Nest, etc.). Their locations aren't public, and aggregating them would be wrong. LIMITATIONS Public databases lag reality. A missing marker does not mean there's no camera there — treat all public space as observed. Reported cameras are reviewed by a person and added in the next data update, never posted automatically. DATA SOURCES OpenStreetMap (© OpenStreetMap contributors, ODbL), including the DeFlock community's ALPR mapping. Each camera's detail screen credits its source and links to the original record.
