Would be a great cheap option for a second monitor or a monitor for my Raspberry Pi. There must be millions of old iPad kicking around desperately looking for a second life rather than going to landfill. ### 4/5 — Last update *2026-06-28, version 2.4.0* Super perfect app in every aspect u can imagine with a lot of free options than other apps I think it's the best of them But in the last update battery usage is insane and my phone gets so hot hope they'll fix it. ### 2/5 — Jesse *2026-06-22, version 2.4.0* One Only Woman ### 5/5 — Nice *2026-06-02, version 2.4.0* Nice ### 5/5 — Yes. *2026-05-24, version 2.4.0* Changed my life. Thank you guys for this platform! ❤️ ### 2/5 — Doesn’t show up on PC *2026-05-23, version 2.4.0* It doesn’t work for my PC Jesus ### 3/5 — Works great *2026-05-19, version 2.4.0* It’s relatively simple, 52-year-old Gen X figured it out. It’s good so far for streaming YouTube and TikTok. The only reason he got three stars is because I can’t stream with The yet and that’s what I want to do. ### 3/5 — Connection problem *2026-04-28, version 2.4.0* I have to keep reconnecting just works weird. Has my phone in to slots one never works the other goes through my computer so it did not work for what I needed. The ai kept reading it’s my phone so I had to buy a camera anyway. They advertise that you can use your phone. ### 5/5 — Great *2026-04-28, version 2.4.0* Love it for my twitch stream ### 4/5 — It works *2026-04-23, version 2.4.0* It’s a reliable means to do video conference calls I use my iPhone and mount it to the top of my display. There have been no issues. I only wish I was better looking on the camera😏 ### 3/5 — FRAME JUMP BUG *2026-04-20, version 2.4.0* Camo works well most of the time. But randomly the frames on camo stay at 1080p 60hz but jump frames almost like your camera is experiencing packet loss. Diagnosing this issue is the hardest part as you can have the best PC, nothing running besides Camo and OBS, best wifi.. and still experience this issue. It makes workflow hard as recording YT videos sometimes can be delayed up to 24 hours. Restarting the computer does not work, I have bought a new cord, new phone new everything. Restarted all my stuff yet nothing can stop the jumping frames ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Inconsistent *2026-08-07, version 2.4.1* If anyone has other recommendations I’m all ears. Randomly cuts out, fails to connect, sometimes works awesomely and sometimes takes 30 minutes to find connections ### 1/5 — Badd update *2026-07-17, version 2.4.1* I struggle with microphone ever since I updated Now I doesn’t use phone microphone anymore unless computer microphone and with mine there is noise in it ### 1/5 — Fallas *2026-07-09, version 2.4.1* Últimamente da mucho problema para conectar mi iPhone como webcam ### 1/5 — LAG *2026-06-12, version 2.4.0* The lag is so bad it’s literally unusable. I’m talking 10 MINUTES delayed lag. ### 1/5 — Had to FACTORY RESET MY COMOUTER *2026-06-07, version 2.4.0* DO NOT INSTAL THIS ON YOUR COMPUTER Just had to completely factory reset my entire computer. I JUST got my computer and everything was FINE till THIS APP started acting up. ### 1/5 — Audio Only mode for iPad is non-existent? *2026-06-03, version 2.4.0* That was supposed to be a big addition to this app and its just not a thing when you’re connected to iPad? WHY?? You’re draining my phone’s battery for what reason. ### 1/5 — BS software *2026-04-26, version 2.4.0* Glitches constantly ### 1/5 — Service client PITOYABLE *2026-04-21, version 2.4.0* J’ai demandé un remboursement sur le forfait Pro, pourtant dans les normes selon les conditions suite à une mauvaise qualité vidéo. J’attends mon remboursement depuis plus d’une semaine et je demeure sans nouvelles de leur part. J’écris plusieurs courriels sans jamais avoir de réponse. ### 1/5 — Cellphone OverHeat *2026-04-06, version 2.4.0* Crash anytime on windows and cellphones overheat… Is a great app but… Don’t works correctly on windows and cellphones ### 1/5 — Billing issues and shady business practice. *2026-04-02, version 2.4.0* This is a review of the service, not the product, which was just okay. I found that I had a duplicate account the was being billed for just over two years, $6. per month, not much, but it adds up. I sent a note to their customer service department, and after a few days they found there was a typo in the registered email address domain - gmaill.com - my bad, but we know that they must have seen the errors coming in. They offered to refund that last payment. I suggested that they could refund the duplicate amount with the typo. In short, I was told, no, this was their policy - to keep charging as long as the credit card posted each month. I won't call this theft, what would you call it ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — STREAMER HERE *2026-08-22, version 2.4.1* Yoooo it’s HotQuesoDip Yes sir him himself, this app lets you use your phone and will save you a lot of time super simplistic and easy to use, I enjoy this app been using it for 3 years now the quality is like no other. Trust me when I say you will never need a expensive camera, I use my iPhone 13 Pro and it’s like a 4k camera best app in the market, I only use the free version but if they send me the upgraded version I will let y’all know, stop by the stream I’m live on twitch everyone is welcome yeeeeee sir let’s go gg!!! TEXAS BABY!! ### 5/5 — You Want This App *2026-08-21, version 2.4.1* I lead yoga classes over Zoom and was using my iPhone as a participant for the camera but always disliked the vertical rectangle view it created. I then learned I could flip the iPhone around and use the camera lens in the Continuity Camera mode on Apple devices, but then the Center Stage built in feature in Apple products kept zooming in and out and not displaying full frame. That’s when I came to learn of Camo- you can control all aspects of the camera in your iPhone to act as a remote camera to your Mac. Love this app! ### 5/5 — Good software *2026-07-29, version 2.4.1* No bugs. Works great ### 5/5 — love it *2026-07-03, version 2.4.1* Good ### 5/5 — The best free app on the internet? *2026-06-26, version 2.4.0* This app works so well! Even the free version slowed you to use your phone as an HD camera without a watermark. Highly recommend!! ### 5/5 — nice but pricey *2026-06-19, version 2.4.0* for what i’m doing 720p isn’t enough. and it’s pricey to buy pro, but i’m absolutely loving it. works perfectly and easily. ### 5/5 — Best app of its kind!! *2026-06-16, version 2.4.0* Flawless!! 5/5 ### 5/5 — Awesome *2026-06-10, version 2.4.0* Awesome app great effects recommended highly ### 5/5 — It works *2026-06-10, version 2.4.0* I tried a few similar apps, this one actually worked and as of this review was supported, I recommend this program to my friends, update several years later, still works ### 5/5 — 10/10 *2026-06-05, version 2.4.0* 10/10 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
