3. **Video Recording**: Enable video recording locally using the toggle button on the settings screen.

* This will record and store the video locally on your device.
* This feature is particularly useful when internet speed is low or unavailable, allowing you to sync the recorded video once a high-speed internet connection is available.

4. **Video Streaming Device:**  Choose a streaming device from the dropdown menu and proceed.

If the user selects "**Mk15**," the following screen will appear on the user’s display.
