Spancam turns the iPhone in your pocket into a sharp, reliable webcam for your Mac with advanced AI Features - over your Wi-Fi network, with no clutter. Your iPhone almost certainly has a far better camera than your Mac's built-in webcam. Spancam puts that camera to work for video calls, streaming, and recording. HOW IT WORKS 1. Install the free Spancam desktop app on your Mac. 2. Open Spancam on your iPhone and make it discoverable on your Wi-Fi network. 3. Your Mac finds your iPhone automatically β accept the connection. 4. Pick "Spancam" as the camera in Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, FaceTime, OBS, or your browser. That's it. WIRELESS, THE EASY WAY β’ Leave the cable behind β stream over your local Wi-Fi network. β’ Your iPhone is discovered automatically; no IP addresses to type. β’ Automatically reconnects if the connection drops. BUILT FOR REAL CALLS β’ Smooth, low-latency, hardware-encoded video (H.264 and HEVC). β’ Front or rear camera, with a clean on-phone viewfinder. β’ Pro controls: zoom, exposure, focus and white balance. β’ A live status indicator shows when you're streaming, with signal strength and bitrate. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Spancam has no accounts, no ads, and no trackers. Your video goes only to your own devices, over your own local network β never to us, never to anyone else. Nothing is uploaded. REQUIREMENTS β’ iPhone with iOS 17.0 or newer. β’ The free Spancam desktop app (macOS available; Windows and Linux on the way).

TuttiCam links multiple iPhones, action cams and mirrorless cameras into one group. One iPhone is the host; the others fire in sync, making interval shooting easier for timelapse, photogrammetry and 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS). HOLD STILL, THEN SHOOT The gyroscope estimates motion blur, and the next round starts only when every connected iPhone is steady. Choose Tripod, Handheld, or plain interval shooting with no stillness detection. Walk to the next spot, hold still, and your devices keep shooting. NO ROUTER NEEDED Nearby iPhones connect peer to peer over AWDL, the technology behind AirDrop, with no internet needed; shared Wi-Fi works too. Clocks are aligned regularly and shutter lag is compensated. The host sets the interval, format and supported capture settings for the whole group. EXPOSURE AND LENSES IN THE VIEWFINDER Adjust white balance, tint, exposure compensation and AF/MF. Pro adds manual shutter speed and ISO. Available lenses and controls depend on each device. SINGLE-LENS RAW, DUAL-LENS CAPTURE Single-lens interval shooting supports RAW (DNG) on compatible models and lenses, saved with the processed photo, for more highlight and shadow detail in night-scene 3DGS and large areas. Supported devices can shoot with the 0.5x ultra wide and front cameras at once, with a side-by-side preview, in JPEG or HEIC. Multi-lens mode does not support RAW. TURN ONE PHONE INTO A REMOTE In Remote Mode the host skips its own camera and just sets up and triggers shots. Selected DJI, GoPro, Sony, Canon, Fujifilm, Nikon and Ricoh cameras trigger over Bluetooth; compatible DJI models also report battery and remaining shots. External cameras must share a rig with an iPhone that detects stillness. See our website for supported models. Their photos stay on the camera and are exported separately. CAPTURE DATA FOR EVERY PHOTO Each photo gets a JSON file with exposure timing, sync deviation, camera settings and motion data. Route Compass (Pro) records capture points and your relative path, so you can see where you've been. It's estimated offline from the gyroscope and accelerometer, with no GPS or network; relative positions drift. ORGANIZED BY SCENE, READY TO EXPORT Create or switch scene folders anytime; Pro lets you name them. Photos and JSON files are sorted by scene, round, device and lens. Share or copy folders from the Files app for structure from motion, 3DGS training or timelapse editing. Export each iPhone's photos from that device. THE DEVELOPER USES IT TOO β’ DJI Osmo 360 + iPhone 14 Pro, a large car show: about 4,000 photos, aligned and trained into Gaussian splats in Spirula. β’ iPhone 17 Pro + iPhone 14 Pro, my home: about 1,200 photos, processed in MipMap and published via Unity to VRChat to tour with friends. TuttiCam captures photos and metadata; 3D reconstruction, 3DGS training and timelapse rendering happen in other software. FREE STEADY INTERVAL SHOOTING. ONLY THE HOST NEEDS PRO. Free: up to 3 devices, automatic steady interval shooting, manual white balance and tint, and AF/MF. Pro: up to 8 devices, plus manual shutter and ISO, Route Compass and custom scene names. Pro is based on the host, so clients don't need to buy it. Pricing and trial eligibility are shown in the app. NO ACCOUNT. PHOTOS STAY ON YOUR DEVICES. No sign-up. Photos and capture data stay on each device. No advertising, analytics or crash-reporting SDKs, and location access is up to you. Requires iOS 18 or later. Lens combinations, resolutions and RAW support vary by model. Actual exposure timing depends on the device, lighting and exposure length; coordinated triggering is not hardware-synchronized exposure.
