Can any of you high tech rednecks help an old man out with this?
What is the easiest way to view pictures and videos in the woods without a computer on trail camera?

Get a SD card reader for your phone.

I’ve got one like this. When you plug it into your phone it asks if you want to download all the pics. After downloading, it asks if you want to delete the pics on the card. Then just put the card back in the camera.

It is really easy.

The hardest part is going back and deleting all the pics from your phone afterwards. Lol.

So it will automatically download all the pictures to phone and they will be deleted from sd card?

No. It will prompt you. “Do you want to download...”. You hit yes.

When download is complete it will ask you if you want to delete contents of the card. You hit yes then put card back in camera.

I have an extra card and 3 cameras. I just swap the card in the camera with an empty one in my bag. Then when I get to my truck I upload the pics to my phone and delete them from the card. Then use that card on the next camera I go to check.

I hope that came out clear. Lol

I have that exact one and it worked fine until I upgraded my phone. Read that the latest version of iOS doesn’t support it. Guess I’ll have to bite the bullet and get the Apple one for $30.

I use an old Samsung phone w/o a SIM for viewing, just so I'm not eating up battery on my regular cell.

Don’t get the boneview reader. They wear out pretty quick.
