User reviews

Perfect for using your iPhone to add a camera to OBS

MimoCam does exactly what it says it does. You connect your iPhone via Lightning/USB to your computer and then it appears a second camera for programs like OBS - full screen, without the camera controls or face tracking. It keeps the phone from sleeping while it’s on, uses no additional drivers or software on your computer, and I’ve had zero issues. Thanks!

Complete waste of Money

Doesn’t work, won’t connect to the desktop app at all, feeling like I’ve been ripped off. I want a refund!!!

Response from developer

Hi, I'm sorry to hear that mimoCam doesn't meet your expectations. However, I suspect that there might be a misunderstanding of how it is supposed to work as it is not designed to connect to anything. Can you please contact support@boinx.com?

Works perfectly

The app works perfectly with the MimoCam app on the Mac! Also work as a simple no control, full screen live view if you just want to use it as a mirror.

No other apps like it

Nicely done!!
