Is there a WiFi camera with an app for viewing when away from home, that has decent privacy? Plug and play would be nice. Limited time to do major setup as in 2 hours tops. Cost is fine nothing into 4 digits. Recording not neccesary. No storage is needed. Simple live viewing is all.

Raspberry pi and motioneyeOS. Getting to a state where you have a live view of the camera shouldn't take more than an hour.

I don't have a pi but I have a mini nuc like server PC. With mint installed.

That'll work too, along with any USB webcam
