Camo is an incredible app. I'm selling my old 4K webcam because of it.

How is nobody talking about this Instead of spending $2K+ for a DSLR setup, you can use your iPhone as a webcam, in just a few minutes! It's MASSIVELY better than the FaceTime camera. Over Zoom, it's hard to see the difference between a iPhone 11 Pro and a DSLR:

It is a little bit mind-blowing! I've been using @reincubate Camo for about a year, & love it! Can't wait to jump into @DescriptApp this week (now I've got Storyboards). I'll still be using @loom because I create a lot of SOPs & still want to upload & share links!

The Camo Manifesto
Want to look your best on video calls? The camera on your iPhone or iPad is leagues ahead of any webcam on the market, and Camo makes it easy to use your iPhone as a webcam.
iPhone cameras are getting better but webcams are getting worse. As the Wall Street Journal reported, many newly-released laptop cameras are worse than 2010 models, and many only do 720p, which even YouTube doesn't consider "HD".
We're taking a fresh approach to solving this: no ads, no spam, no fiddly pairing, bulletproof drivers, and a polished, simple app that lets you make the most of the amazing camera you already own.
FAQ
Which video apps is Camo compatible with?
Lots! More than 40, including Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, FaceTime, Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge, GoToMeeting, Cisco Webex, QuickTime, Slack, Discord, WhatsApp and more. You can see the list on our site, or in Camo Studio itself. Camo will never ask you to run some random command. We're not like that.
Will Camo impact my privacy or security?
No. Camo doesn't know what you're using it for, and doesn't capture or transmit your feed. Our privacy policy is here, but the tldr is that your data is your business, not ours.
What is Camo compatible with?
Camo Camera is compatible with any iOS device running iOS 15 or above, so you could run it on an iPod Touch just as well as your iPhone 17 Pro. Or iPad Pro. Camo Camera for Android is compatible with devices running Android 7.0 or later. It'll run on any Mac with macOS 12.3 or newer, and on any PC with Windows 10 or newer.
How is Camo different?
Camo gives you control of everything from your Mac, with rich image adjustments, and it does all the processing on your iOS device, freeing up your computer's power for work. It has a beautiful native app with Dark Mode support and full iPad support, up-to-the-minute compatibility with over 40 apps, and detailed guides on everything from mounts to calls. Camo doesn't bother you with complicated and unreliable drivers, insecure pairing, or ads.
How does Continuity Camera compare?
Camo and Continuity Camera share an original thought: that you can achieve great video using just the camera you already have in your pocket. Camo started from this idea and in the years since has been continuously improved and upgraded. Check out our comparison of Camo and Continuity Camera to find out more.
How can I mount my phone as a webcam?
We bought every type of phone mount on Amazon, and tried them all. We photographed the lot of them, and wrote up our experiences and recommendations in a dedicated guide.
