  • Bait and Switch

    The software is decent, connecting the iPhone to my windows PC using wifi or USB was not a problem and I was able to use it with Webex.

    The problem is after two weeks of use, all of my setting disappeared and I couldn't use the camera in portrait mode. Shortly thereafter it placed a large box over the center of my picture that said "TRIAL."

    This app isn't really free. So be aware that if you want to use it long term it's going to cost you. Seems dishonest to slowly take away features from users after a certain threshold with no indication that it's a trial app.

  • Pleasant surprise

    Decided to turn my iPhone 5 into a webcam since I was being cheap. Plus there's a shortage of webcams because of covid 19. App works super well with easy set up. Connectivity is stable. It some settings are a little clunky when usin a phone. Flipping image vertically/horizontally and then the touch adjustment of exposure/white balance. Using the desktop app to adjust is much easier. Overall a great option if you have an phone laying around and want to try streaming.

  • IVCamera App

    Been using the app for a week now and no issues whatsoever. The set up was slightly more complicated than the four other apps, but the fact I have not had a single issue is worth it. Will most likely upgrade to purchased option. Have not played with WiFi connection too much but that’s due to my network and not the app.

  • I like it but.

    It works well and the video is clear. It works with all of my meeting software.

    For sound you need the virtual sound card mainly to access the microphone on the phone. The rest of the sound software requires some knowledge about computer sound and the interface and mixing computer devices to operate at full capacity.
    I am intrigued with the idea of using multiple iVCams. It is a nice feature to convert and iPad and iPhone into two cam-corders at the same time.

    It is easy to purchase virtual video camera software by mistake (VCam). I did. Now I am try to see if I can make use of it. The VCam is unique and usable. It is not user friendly for simple screen capture. Instead, VCam acts like a camera device forbrecording into your movie making software. VCam has many effects and some editing can be performed.

    I am please it does the webcam job really well. I am testing the multi camera feature. This is cool. Not convinced yet about VCam. The jury is still out on that product.

  • I want to die

    I don’t know about videos but if you’re using this to make something like a stop motion never download this. First there’s horrible lag. And this lag just happens randomly, it works fine half of the time but the the lag kicks you have to waste your time till the camera catches up to what happened. And no this is definitely not something wrong with my internet connection. This app also loves not connecting to your computer, one time I spent almost 20 minutes trying to pair this garbage to the computer. And also, the camera has it’s own will, it always changes the brightness making each photo look ridiculously different. I wish I never found this. It’s been 2 days of just rage and disappointment. Hope this company will go bankrupt...

  • Good but having trouble -Help-

    Hi. So it’s good. I’m using the free version and despite the ad that goes across the screen when recording the quality of shot is good. However, I don’t know if it’s just me, the microphone is very echoey when I tried using the program with OBS. Maybe they’re not compatible like I thought but I want to stream on twitch and the echos are driving me insane. Other than that it’s easy to sync my phone with my Windows PC, so that’s good. PLEASE, if anyone has advice, let me know what I can do so I can stream!

  • Pretty Nice

    It turned my phone into a webcam and was pretty easy to use. Connected to my discord and worked well for video calls without having to switch to my phone app. The only bad thing is the watermark that flies across the screen every few minutes. But for a no cost alternative I can live with that.

    One time it did stop workin because I didn’t update so make sure you update the drivers.

  • Perfect but with a possible problem

    As a content creator, I want to make videos in the best possible quality I can. Since I was getting annoyed with the quality of my Logitech C920, I wanted to look for something MUCH better. And behold, this app appeared.

    I cannot stress ho perfect this app is for m. Being able to get a webcam to record at 1080p and 60fps is a absolute blessing. And the fact that it’s using a pretty good camera from an iPhone 6 makes it even better!

    I’m still going to give it 5 stars because of how much I love the app, but I do have one problem with it. After 15-25 minutes of using the app (mind you, my phone is on a cell phone mount above my monitor in the air and the top of the monitor does not blow out any hot air), I will get a temperature warning message because my phon is overheating. I tested this issue with leaving my phone on for an hour both in standby mode and with the camera app open and I didn’t get that same message. I don’t know if it’s a freak issue but I’m also getting a cooler for my phone for it.

    Regardless, despite the overheating issue, I love the app. Once I get my setup situated, I’m definitely making a video about this app!

  • Very impressed

    I’ve downloaded many apps which claim to easily connect Wi-Fi to remotely function other software applications. None of which stand up to their claims of “ease-of-use”, most don’t work at all.
    iVCams free version DOES have annoying ADDS which block your view and distracts from the flow. BUT the free version allows you to see how seamlessly the app WORKS connecting the iPaD/Wi-Fi.
    Within 30 seconds of use I mediately bought the non-add version for 2.99.
    This app is wonderful and stands up to its claims. 👏

  • Nearly almost perfect but HELP...!

    Okay so I gave this a 5 start review because it is basically perfect! I’m so happy that added USB support because I can not trust my WiFi connection. However the issue comes in (atleast for me) when I try to record from the client app on PC. I figured with the USB stability I wouldn’t have lagginess of audio and video and it would be all synced up, but boy was I wrong. This really needs to be fixed because at times it would buffer and chop up on a USB CONNECTION! Which doesn’t make much sense to me because it’s connected my USB 3.0 port. I wanted to use this to make video production easier but this is a major problem. I could understand if this happened under a WiFi connection but USB is just unforgivable. However that’s the only glitch/bug that I have had a problem with. If I use OBS just to pick up ivCam as my webcam there is no lag or stutter. The problem only comes from recording within the app! Other than that I love the app and has really helped me step up my video production!
