The visitor mode is a useful feature offered by the Hik-Connect phone app (for Hikvision CCTV devices). If you log in as a visitor, a visitor account will be created for you by default, and you can add devices to the client and manage them without registration.
How to use visitor mode in Hik-Connect app?
Step 1. Install Hik-Connect on your smartphone and run it. The app version must be 3.5.0 or newer (older versions don’t support this feature).
Step 2. Tap on the Visitor Mode button and the Hik-Connect app will create a visitor account for you. Note: You can tap on Manage Device as Visitor (no need to register) to get more information in the login page.
Step 3. Tap on Add Device button and scan the QR code on device label or QR code under Platform Access in the local recorder’s GUI (interface) to add a new device to your phone.
Note: You can also tap the adding icon on the top right and select Scan QR code or Manual Adding to add a device to your phone.
Step 4. Tap Add button and then tap Finish button.
Notes:
- One device can only be added to one visitor account.
- If you use the client in visitor mode, after you delete the client or change your phone, the visitor account will also be deleted, so that the device added to the account will be unavailable for a new account.
