What is the purpose of the Milestone Mobile Client?

The primary purpose of the Milestone Mobile Client is to provide remote access for monitoring and control of video surveillance systems. This tool allows users to view live feeds, playback recorded footage, and control cameras from their mobile devices, enabling flexibility and convenience for security personnel who may need to monitor operations from different locations.

This remote access capability is particularly important in modern security management, where the ability to respond to incidents and monitor activities in real time can significantly enhance the effectiveness of surveillance systems. By using the mobile client, users can stay connected and maintain oversight without being tied to a desktop or a specific location, thus enhancing situational awareness and responsiveness.

Understanding this functionality is crucial, as it distinguishes the Milestone Mobile Client as a key component in modern surveillance strategies, separate from roles such as installations, user permissions, or video data storage which are served by different functions or platforms within the Milestone system.
