Use your mobile phone as web cam to your pc/laptop

 Brief

 This thing started when I had an interview😮 with one of the company in Nepal and my laptop camera quality was so bad that I was asked to turn off 😥 it which made me to think to buy a webcam for my laptop and I realized if the webcam be attached to my laptop using USB cable or WIFI then why we cannot use my phone.

This is how it started.

I have tested it and using this app called iVCam since then it worked very well as well with teams, zoom and other streaming app as well.

We need to download these 2 stuffs only:

  1. The mobile app.
  2. The PC client software.

Install these two software on your individual mobile and pc and then you are good to go.Mobile phone will ask for the permissions, and allow all the permission it ask for.

There are two by which we can connect your mobile phone as web cam and they are: 

A) WIFI:

  • Connect your laptop and mobile to the same wifi network.
  • Open app in both mobile and laptop/pc.
  • It will automatically connect to the mobile camera. 
 B) USB Cable: 
  • Become a developer of your mobile. Follow the steps from this link.
  • Then enable usb debugging options on your mobile by following steps from this link.
  • Connect your mobile via USB to the laptop/pc.
  •  It will automatically connect. If it does not then, just change the USB charging options to Transfer Files or some other options. It will work.
