To access your camera on your iPhone, simply visit the external address of your camera (i.e your fixed external IP and port, or your DDNS account and port address).

On the iPhone, open the Web Browser (Safari), input the address exactly (start the address with "http://" but no need for www)

This will load the camera Homepage menu.

Rotate the iPhone so it becomes bigger, and click “live view”

It will prompt you for your cameras password.

This will log you in to the camera as usual.

If you are accessing a 2nd Generation Y-cam, the picture will auto switch to the MJPEG view.

If you are accessing a Y-cam SD, then zoom in by pinching the screen, and click on “Motion JPEG” on the far top right.

This will display the live stream from the camera, and you can zoom in and out to make it full screen.

Some later models of SD also allow for access to a dedciated iPhone view - put /iphone at the end of your cameras address.

There are Apps available in the iTunes App Store which will allow you to login in to the camera via the App and it will remember your login details and allow easy full screen display.
