Apple TV - Eufy camera

Like a lot of you, I wanted my Eufy cameras on my TV and ran into the same wall: there’s no Eufy app for Apple TV. Pulling up a phone to check the driveway never felt right when there’s a 65" screen in the room.

So I built one for myself. It’s a viewer for RTSP cameras on Apple TV, and my Eufy cameras have been running in it for months now without a hiccup.

Getting Eufy into it takes about a minute:

  1. In the Eufy app, open your camera → Settings → NAS / RTSP, switch RTSP on and note the username and password it shows you
  2. Find your HomeBase’s IP address (your router’s device list will show it)
  3. In the app, add a camera, pick **Eufy** as the brand and fill in the HomeBase address plus those credentials

That’s it; the stream shows up alongside my other cameras in the same wall view.

Being straight with you about the limits, because RTSP on Eufy isn’t universal:

  • Battery-powered models are hit and miss — they aren’t built to stream continuously
  • Eufy gives you one stream per camera, no low-res substream. Fine for a handful of cameras; if you’re running a big wall of them, keep an eye on your network
  • The video never leaves your network — it goes straight from the HomeBase to the Apple TV

It’s called Eagle Cam Viewer on the tvOS App Store. It’s free to try for 14 days with everything unlocked, and a one-time purchase after that; no subscription, no account, no data collection.

I’m posting here because this forum is where I’d have wanted to find it. If you try it with a Eufy setup, I’d genuinely like to hear which models work for you. I only have 8 here to test with, and I’d like to make the Eufy side better. Happy to answer any questions in this thread.

Going to camera → Settings, I don’t see NAS / RTSP, switch RTSP on, for any of these cameras, unless I’m looking in the wrong place:
Indoor Cam 2K
Video Doorbell E340
SoloCam C20
SoloCam E20
Indoor Cam Pan&Tilt

Well done

In the camera settings, tap on General, then Storage.

Thanks for that!

After clicking NAS(RTSP), the Eufy app says to setup the camera with a static IP, but your instructions say to use the HomeBase IP. If it’s the HomeBase, do I need to setup a static IP? Then it asks me to: Select which type Video you’d like store to your NAS: Events or Continuous Recording. Which should it be?

Thanks again,
Bob
