Can the pro4 be monitored without a subscription?

Will the videos remain in the monitoring app until I delete them?

The subscription is to provide cloud services such as storage and smart detection.

To be able to local record you would need a smart hub for app access or a base with backup storage device enabled that you view USB files on a pc.

Just to add further, cloud storage drops recordings after 30days typically depending on region.

Using the base they are retained depending on the storage device size so can be a lot longer.

 If you’re using the direct storage access feature your viewing capability is still reduced to 30days but later files can be still accessed using a pc USB removed of course.
