Photos taken by Vector – Customer Care

Learn in this FAQ how to ask Vector to take photos, how to export them, where the photos are stored and more.

How to take a photo

Ask Vector to take a picture by giving him a command by voice: “Hey Vector, take a photo” and you’ll hear a simulated shutter sound.
Vector does not take videos.

You can view the picture from the Vector App, and from there, delete, share, or save it to your phone or tablet.
Select "Utilities" > tap "VECTOR'S PHOTOS" > Select a photo > tap "export photo".
Note that on Android devices, there will be a "photo exported" confirmation. On iOS, there will not be any confirmation. This is by design.

Vector uses a HD Camera with a 120-degree, ultra wide field of vision.
If you are wondering why the resolution and quality of pictures Vector takes may not be in line with what you would expect, remember:
You are seeing the world through Vector’s eyes. He does not see the world in the same way we do.

Any pictures are saved to Vector’s onboard memory
Your photos are not sent to or stored in the cloud
You can delete pictures saved to Vector anytime through the Vector app
When Vector is on, his camera is always on so he can see and react to the world around him
To turn it off and stop data streaming, you need to turn off Vector by pressing and holding his Back Button for 5 seconds
