Just because you’re working from home now doesn’t mean you’re off the hook when it comes to meetings. And just because you don’t have a spare webcam around doesn’t mean you need to peel back the tape that’s covering your laptop’s camera—as long as you have an iPhone or an iPad, you can easily turn it into a makeshift webcam.
Update 07/29/20: Since we first published this article, we have reviewed a new entry in this field, Camo . It may be the best way yet to use your iPhone as a Mac webcam, though the full version is not cheap.
There are a few different apps you can use, but we recommend Kinoni’s EpocCam Webcam. Not only is it easy to set up, but the free version with ads and occasional watermarking works with both Mac and PC ( iVCam is a good option if you’re using Windows, and NDI just made its $20 HX Camera app free for 60 days ). Any iOS device that’s running iOS 10.3 or later will work, so even if you have an old iPhone 5 or iPad mini 2 in a drawer, it’ll work. If you're willing to pay, Camo works exceptionally well and gives you lots of great options in an easy-to-use interface.
