The camera comes with an 8GB micro SD card which supports 2 hours of continuous recording. Nevertheless, the camera will support a max 32GB micro SD card if you wish to have more storage. The nanny camera makes it easy to watch videos by simply twisting the top of the detector to get the actual camera out.
