**Want to show your appreciation for this app? A donation is possible via http://www.d2c.nl **
To be able to use this app, you need to supply the app with the IP of the Synology NAS, as well as the username and password of an admin. It's best to set up an admin purely for this purpose, by following these steps from a computer:
- Login to your Synology
- Click on "Surveillance Station" so it opens in a new window.
- Click on the menu button, go to "User".
- Click on "Add", fill in a username and password (remember both, you will be neeeing them later)
- Click "Next", make sure to choose the profile with "Manager" rights.
- Click "Next", make sure to check all cameras you want to give access to.
- Click "Complete".
Also make sure your Synology has a fixed IP in your network.
The following cards are available:
- [ACTION] Start recording
- [ACTION] Stop recording
- [ACTION] Take snapshot (will go to /USERNAME/@Snapshot/ on your Synology)
- [ACTION] Mail snapshot (first fill in SMTP settings under 'Settings' in Homey!)
- [ACTION] Take snapshot as token for use with Homey
- [ACTION] Enable camera
- [ACTION] Disable camera
- [CONDITION] Is the camera recording?
- [CONDITION] Is the camera available?
- [TRIGGER] Starts recording (require enable_polling checked on settings page)
- [TRIGGER] Stops recording (require enable_polling checked on settings page)
- [TRIGGER] Becomes available (require enable_polling checked on settings page)
- [TRIGGER] Becomes unavailable (require enable_polling checked on settings page)

- If you still have problems with the functionality of this app, you probably have had this app from before version 1.2.6 which had some big changes. Please remove your Synology webcam from Homey and re-add it. This should solve it.

- Bugfix for crashes on Homey 1.5.x
- Bugfix for pairing with multiple cameras
Version 1.2.6
- Added support for camera's on multiple Synology's in combination with the Telegram app's "/snap" functionality. If you already have multiple Synology's connected, you will have to delete all but one to be able to screenshot via Telegram, then add them again.
Version 1.2.5
- Snapshot now available as token. You can use the "Take snapshot as token" card to take a snapshot and save it as a Homey token, which you can then use in combination with other supported Homey apps such as the Telegram app.

Version 1.1.1
- Small bug fixes
Version 1.1.0

- Settings page now has a 'Use encrypted connection' setting that you can use if your mail provider supports (or requires) it.
- Settings page now has an 'enable polling' button. If you check this, Homey will check the status of every camera every 10 seconds. This enables the triggers.
Version 1.0.3:
- There now is a 'test' button in the settings menu. This will test your mail settings and display it either being sent successful, or return the error.
