Ocean bed , 02 июня 2022 в 07:43:21 # Спасибо! Очень полезное приложение. Добавьте пожалуйста выключение экрана для экономии заряда, тогда вообще будет Агонь) Ответить
Alfabet 156sw , 06 апреля 2022 в 15:22:10 # При запуске вижу картинку 4/3 вместо 16/9.
Иногда «лечится» включением и выключением стабилизации. Редко.
За что я только что отдал 650₽? За глючный софт, дающий картинку для старых кинескопных телевизоров моего детства?. Ответить
Tiktok hater123 , 11 сентября 2021 в 17:01:35 # After the last update, it’s just not connecting, i think it’s cause the versions on my phone and on my pc don’t match, and there is no option to revert back to the old one, if someone knows how I’d live to know Ответить
Samsss79 , 26 февраля 2021 в 21:03:55 # Прошу включите поддержку по USB. Все работает отлично, звук передаёт, у кого не передаётся, смотрите настройки устройств записи в винде, правой кнопкой по динамику в трее и выбрать Записывающие устройства. Выберите устройство Микрофон Irium webcam и потом будет все работать. В скайпе и других звлнилках тоже это устройство выбрать как микрофон. Спасибо за программу! Ответить
Orna tonn , 25 февраля 2021 в 20:58:20 # Приложение замечательно, добавьте пожалуйста возможно USB соединения для более стабильного захвата изображения! Ответить
Ilia , 25 февраля 2021 в 20:33:34 # Приложение выполнят свои функци, но почему-то не передается звук из микрофона. Очень хотелось бы получить не только видео, но и звук. Ответить
Kivuch st , 25 февраля 2021 в 11:28:20 # Под вин/мак все работает хорошо. Приложение минималистичное, но с другой стороны, главная функция работает хорошо. 4 звезды, потому как не смог заставить работать под Ubuntu 18.04 даже с vl4loopback устройством и нельзя принудительно поставить передачу потока через usb. Ответить
Emo in law , 24 февраля 2021 в 15:40:16 # Шикарное бесплатное приложение, выполняет свои задачи полностью. Конечно, настроек нет совсем, но как вебкамера — шикарно. Спасибо. Надеюсь на развитие в будущем Ответить
Timoha425 , 24 февраля 2021 в 06:27:37 # Перебрал много приложений(epocCam, ivcam и т.д)
У всех надо было заплатить, чтобы убрать водяной знак и разблокировать больше функций(которые вообще не нужны)
Тут же все просто: установил на телефон, установил на пк, подключил(wifi или по проводу) На пк открывается окошко где можно выбрать качество видео
Один минус: не передаётся звук Ответить
Chilintanowan , 23 февраля 2021 в 14:29:06 # Добавьте поддержку переключения на широкоформатную камеру для 11 и других устройств с несколькими камерами. Ответить

Ratings and Reviews
This close to being perfect
For the life of me I don’t understand why this doesn’t have USB support. It literally would’ve been, and I’m not exaggerating, the premium version of any other cam app here if it had this one small feature with the USB. The problem with WiFi is the lag and the latency. People wouldn’t have minded just plugging in their phone or that just being an option along with the wireless one. Other than that, I love that video quality change is free, I really can’t complain about a lot. But because of that minor problem I will still find myself using the other cams. Too bad, as I really liked the free features here. I’ll give it ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️/2
Finally found a perfect app to turn my phone into a PC webcam.
So i have been looking for a program for years to turn my phone into a webcam for my pc. I have finally found the perfect app to do so. I have been using this app for about a year now, i think. This app has never had a single issue for me and this app has always worked great without issues. I have bought the in app purchase for this app too, since the cost was not that much. All other camera apps i have used before this one had issues. Plus all the other apps i have used for this sort of things had resolutions and many features behind a monthly payment or just expensive in app purchases. Which was required to have features, Such as controlling it with my PC. Best webcam app i have used honestly and i like it. Keep up the good work, you are doing great.
Good but could be better
I have the app connected from my iPad to my Windows PC. It works nicely if you’re just running the app on both computer and iPad. Problem is that on the computer the program window will be small and you can’t resize it. When I tried using it as a webcam for zoom and jamkazam the results were the same. The visuals in both kept repeatedly blinking from the picture to black. I felt like a stroke warning should have been issued before I made my attempts. On zoom I tried sharing my screen and it worked, but again the screen was small and I couldn’t resize it. I paid $6.99 for screen control on my iPad but there are only a few things you can do: Flip camera, mirror, and brighten. I can’t really use brighten because my iPad doesn’t have a flashlight. I hope that if this app gets funded even more so that there would be more screen control options such as video filters, fix the blinking, and let’s me resize the window on my computer.
