For the hone security conscious iOS user who likes to keep an eye on what is going on around their home, Logitech, the company known for its webcams, has now released an app for both the iPhone and the Apple iPad called Logitech Alert.

According to an article over on Ubergizmo, the Ligitech Alert iOS app records what is going on around your home whilst you are out and about and the footage can be played back once you get home and can stream 720p HD video along with sound.

The Logitech Alert app is a free download from iTunes and there is a version for both the Apple iPad and iPhone and the user can watch a live video at no charge. However if you wish to record video it comes as a premium feature using the Alert Web and Mobile Commander services from Logitech at a cost of some $79.99.

Apparently the system will work with all current Logitech Alert cameras, which command a hefty price tag of $229.99 and above. And just so you can see what the iPad app is all about we have a video demo for your viewing pleasure below.
