Method 1: Watch Your Kasa Cam on PC using an Android Emulator.

If you are a Windows user, let me tell you that the Kasa app isn’t available on the Microsoft Store, so you need to use another way to download it, the trick I recommend is to download the app from an Android emulator.

An Android Emulator simulates Android devices on your computer so that you can download your Kasa Smart app on Windows without needing to have an Android phone or tablet.

For security reasons, we do not recommend installing any emulator you find on the web, we suggest BlueStacks as it is well known and safe.

Follow the steps below to access your Kasa camera from the Bluestacks emulator:

1. Open your web browser on Windows.
2. Then go to this website: bluestacks.com
3. from this website download BlueStacks and install it on your PC just like you do with any other software.
4. Once installed, Open the BlueStacks on the computer.
5. Click on the Play Store and log in to your Google Play account.
6. Then search for the Kasa Smart app and install it.
7. Once the app is installed on BlueStacks, click on it and log in to your account.
8. Then tap on your Kasa Cam on the app and the live stream will appear.

Method 2: Download The Kasa App on Mac and Chromebook.

If you are using a Macbook or Chromebook the process is easier, all you have to do if you are a Macbook user is download the Kasa Smart app from the “App Store” and if you are a Chromebook user, you can download it directly from “Google Play Store”.

Here are the instructions to follow to download the app on Mac:

1. Go to the App Store.
2. Then go to the search bar and search for Kasa Smart.

Method 3: Cast Your Mobile or Tablet Screen on Your PC.

Casting your phone or tablet screen is the easiest way to do in order to watch your Kasa camera on your computer, this feature lets you mirror your device to the computer so you can enjoy your content exactly as you see it on your mobile or tablet.

You can use this method with your IOS and Android devices and they must be connected to the internet.

Here’s how to cast an IOS device:

1. Open the Control Center by swiping up from the bottom of the device screen or swiping down from the top right corner of the screen (varies by device and iOS version).
2. Tap the “Screen Mirroring” or “AirPlay” button.
3. Select your computer.
4. Your iOS screen will show on your computer.
5. Launch the Kasa Smart app and access the live view to see what’s happening inside your house.

4. Your Android display will now be cast to your PC.
5. Open your Kasa Smart app and access the footage or live view and it will appear on your computer.

Method 4: Upload The Clips Stored on The SD card to Your PC.

The Kasa camera has the ability to record and store the footage on a microSD card, allowing it to save clips when the internet is down or when it cannot upload those clips to the cloud.

So you can easily remove this SD card from your camera and plug it into your computer and watch the footage recorded by your camera.

Here are the steps to follow to watch the footage stored on your SD card:

1. Take the SD card off the camera.
2. Put it on a micro SD card reader.
3. Plug the micro SD card reader on your computer.
4. Then access and view the files using a media player.

Conclusion.

Finally, I wanna say that watching your Kasa Smart Camera from your computer is a smart step to do, especially when your phone battery is drained or when you want to watch the footage on a bigger screen.
