How it works

Three taps between your sofa and the evidence.

  1. Daytime iPhone photo of an empty living room with a Christmas tree — the photo a parent takes for HoHoCam
    01

    Snap the room

    Take a photo of your tree, fireplace or hallway. Lights on works best — we add the night vision. Wide and level, floor visible.

  2. 02

    Pick the moment

    Eight scenes — down the chimney, milk & cookies, leaving presents, filling stockings and more. Three Santas, same price. Name the camera after your kid.

  3. Santa caught on camera stepping out of a fireplace, night-vision security camera still shown in HoHoCam’s full-screen Show the kids mode
    03

    Show the proof

    Save the frame with its CAM 01 label and timestamp. On Christmas morning, open “Show the kids” — full screen, no app name, no buttons.

Looks like the real thing

Real-looking enough that you’ll want to keep the original.

The night-vision look

Grain, glow, and the soft blur real cameras have.

Infrared grey instead of cartoon green. Tree lights bloom the way they do on a real indoor cam.

Your room, not a stock scene

Santa stands on your rug, next to your tree.

He is placed into the photo you took — your furniture, your shadows, your mess on the coffee table.

Timestamp you control

CAM 01 · ELLA. 02:14:37, Dec 25.

Set the date and time yourself. Put your kid’s name on the camera label, or keep it plain CAM 01.

Made for parents

“Show the kids” hides everything but the frame.

Full-screen viewer with no app name and no buttons. Nothing on screen says “virtual” or “generated”.

Before and after

Your photo → the night-camera frame.

Your photos stay yours

Used to make your footage. Not kept.

Your room photo goes to our servers only to make your Santa footage, and we don’t store it. The images and clips made along the way are deleted automatically after 24 hours. We never train on your photos. No ads, no tracking, no account to create.

Read the privacy policy →
  • Not stored, then deleted. We don’t keep your room photo, and the images and clips made along the way are gone after 24 hours. The finished footage lives on your phone, not with us.
  • Never used for training. Your living room is not a dataset.
  • No kids’ data. HoHoCam is a parent tool. The optional name on the camera label is just text on your image.
  • Delete in one tap. Settings → Delete all footage clears the app. For your credits and records, email us.

Questions parents ask

The fine print, without the fine print.

Is it safe for kids?

Yes. HoHoCam is a parent tool: you take the photo, you get the image, you decide when to show it. “Show the kids” mode goes full screen and hides the app name, the buttons and anything that says “generated”. There are no ads and no chat.

Do you store my photos?

No. Your room photo is sent to our servers only to create your footage and is not saved there. The images and clips made along the way are deleted automatically after 24 hours; the finished footage is saved on your phone. We never use your photos to train anything.

Does it really look like security-camera footage?

That’s the whole point. Night-vision grain, IR glow, a CAM 01 label you can name after your kid, and a timestamp you set yourself. Real-looking enough that we recommend not zooming in with a 12-year-old.

Do I need a Christmas tree in the photo?

No. A hallway, a fireplace, the front door or the kids’ bedroom door all work. Wide, level shots with the floor visible give the best result.

How long does it take?

A photo usually takes under a minute and a clip a few minutes, because every take is checked before you see it. On the busiest nights (December 24) it can take a little longer.

How much does it cost?

The app is free to download and the scene previews are free to browse. Every photo uses one credit; packs start at $2.99 for 3 photos. One-time purchases, no subscription, credits never expire.

Christmas morning, upgraded.

Your camera. Your living room. Santa, caught in the act.
