## What is Document Camera?

Transform your iPhone into the best document camera on the market with Doc Cam!

Doc Cam is a straightforward app for sharing your workspace with your students, just like a document camera or old school overhead projector.

### 5/5 — Overhead Projector!

*2026-02-10, version 1.1.1*

We wanted to turn a phone into an overhead projector, and the camera app wasn’t cutting it. This app is great for that, with panning, keystone, and orientation toggle. Flashlight is a nice touch.

### 5/5 — I love it that way I can play teacher with it it’s so fun

*2025-01-14, version 1.1.1*

I give it 10 out of ten

### 1/5 — How to operate?

*2022-11-28, version 1.1.0*

2nd doc camera app I have tried. When I open, there’s only a picture of it being used. I tap and swipe to try to find some type of controls. Nothing. 

Puzzled at the reviews since nothing happens when I try to use. I’m not app illiterate but this one is lacking something.

### 1/5 — It won’t open past the splash screen.

*2022-02-25, version 1.1.0*

It has a small pic of a young girl & says:
Use Doc Cam to present your
workspace through Google
Meet, Zoom, Screen
Mirroring and other video
conferencing services! To
get started, we need acce...

I can’t go anywhere from there. There r no buttons or arrows. All I can do is close the window. I have an iPhone 12 Pro. I don’t really want to underrate it. It just doesn’t work.

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2021-10-22, version 1.1.0*

I loved using this app for screen mirroring and it has worked beyond amazing for the past few days totally recommended!

### 5/5 — Really good

*2021-10-15, version 1.1.0*

Really good can just make it a document so great nothing bad

### 5/5 — A must!

*2021-03-03, version 1.1.0*

Exactly what I needed for virtual learning and teaching! I just bought a stand on Amazon to place my phone over my document! Works like an Elmo!

### 1/5 — Downloaded but it won’t work

*2021-01-19, version 1.1.0*

App says it needs access to something but there’s nothing to select and the app is frozen.

### 1/5 — Limited Rotation

*2021-01-12, version 1.1.0*

It would be nice if users were able to rotate the document 90 degrees versus only 180 degrees.  I can’t use this for teaching.

### 1/5 — Won’t open

*2021-01-01, version 1.1.0*

I’ve tried installing this on my iPhone X twice and it would get stuck on Home Screen.
