Before you ask for help
-----------------------
* Make sure you have read the [FAQ](https://zmninja.readthedocs.io/en/latest/guides/FAQ.html)
* Make sure you have [validated](https://zmninja.readthedocs.io/en/latest/guides/validating-api.html) that your APIs are working (if not, its a ZM issue, please post in ZM forums)
* Please don't ask me for help with source compilation if you are not familiar with coding mobile apps - you should try and solve your own problems
Video Demo
-------------
Check out a video demo of zmNinja [here](https://youtu.be/prtA_mv68Ok)
Mobile Platforms
---------------------------
zmNinja is stable as of today and runs on a variety of Android and iOS platforms.

It also runs on the desktop (see below)
Desktop Platforms
-----------------
Please download binaries from [here](https://github.com/pliablepixels/zmNinja/releases).
Key Features
-------------
* Push Notifications Object detection/face recognition for alarms (Needs the [eventserver](https://github.com/pliablepixels/zmeventserver) to be set up)

* H264 video support
* live views of monitors

Key Limitations
----------------
* Client certificates are not supported
* If you use self signed certificates, you will likely have to install them in your phone (especially Android)
* If you use Basic Authentication, you'll have to go through additional setup (see FAQ)
Thanks
------
To the Zonemider community in general, and the awesome Stack Overflow community.
But specifically, [Andrew Bauer](https://github.com/knight-of-ni) (knight-of-ni) who egged me on to take up this project and [Isaac Connor](http://github.com/connortechnology/) who has been incredibly supportive in helping fix various ZM issues that affected zmNinja.
Important Notes
---------------
* zmNinja needs APIs enabled in ZoneMinder. See [this](https://zmninja.readthedocs.io/en/latest/guides/validating-api.html) for instructions on how to make sure your APIs are working. If they are not working, zmNinja **will not** work.
Why did I develop zmNinja?
------------------------------
* I wanted to learn how to write a mobile app. It was (and is) fun.
* I originally reached out to tinyCam to see if they were willing to do an app - did not get a response
* I found zmView limited for my needs
