Opinion:
Thousands of features and apps are in themselves unnecessary as are many of the high-profile smartphones that act as "desirable" luxury that will make no difference whether you have it or not.
But as time passes, things that were once unnecessary will gradually become a need....
Image a world without a phone in today's world....but it was the same world that survived without it for billions of years.
Same is the case with these overwhelming numbers of applications coming in the market for smartphones everyday. How useful are they. The application mentioned here could work as a way to monitor homes during one's absence, but it is developed with a pre-conceived assumption that we will have "old" phones that will act as cameras for the house--the images from which will be accessed by by the owner of the "new" phone.
Not everyone is rich enough to own more than a few digital devices, let alone the ability to enjoy the luxury of making phones their "security cameras". And i bet this wouldn't be less expensive than having traditional surveillance CCTVs.
