Camera for OBS Studio for Positive User Reviews
✓ Fantastic, usefulThis app is a must-have if you’re an artist like me who’s been pushed to doing all shows virtual/streaming because of current events. The app makes OBS much more usable with very little expense. The camera settings are now quite configurable. As a nod to whatever negative comments here in the “reviews” - understand this: there are a ton of variables in any given setup and you need a bit of persistence and know-how to make sure everything works. The fact that the developer GIVES the options to configure it in different ways is a GOOD thing. It’s a well supported and developed app. Get it, and do great streams!.Version: 3.0.1
✓ Super happy!Worked perfect on my 6s plus and windows 10 machine. I was actually suprised at how little tweaking I had to do. Thank you for making this app!!.Version: 2.5.3
✓ 28.0 obs ndi wifi issueDon’t upgrade obs to 28.0+ if you want the ndi-wifi feature to work, it’s broken. Loved This feature with previous versions, not sure when or if obs is going to allow this app to work or if the developer of this app is trying to reach out to them for some coding cooperation with the 28.0 obs version. Pretty disappointed until They fix this issue, this app is amazing otherwise but defeats the purpose if the wifi ndi feature doesn’t work..Version: 3.4.1
✓ Worked perfectly!I thought my Logitech C922 webcam was good until this app let me use my iPhone X with OBS. The difference was night and day!! Followed the instructions and everything went smoothly. Only thing I had to change was the resolution from 720p to 1080p in the app settings..Version: 2.0.1
✓ Great AppHad a bit of trouble at first as my iPhone camera wouldn’t load up on OBS Studio - however I contacted OBS and one of the team got back to me within 24 hours and said I had the wrong plug in He provided me a link with the correct plug in and it was working in no time! Will definitely recommend this.Version: 3.1.1
✓ Works perfectly on Windows 10Got this set up and working in less than five minutes on a fresh Windows 10 install and multiple different iPhones running latest iOS. I even got it to work pretty well in a Win 10 virtual machine running on a Linux host, just out of curiosity. It makes me wonder what is going on with the negative reviews. I am sure some people are having legitimate issues but they just don’t match my experience at all..Version: 2.5.3
✓ Works great but connection was confusing at first.Just downloaded and trialled this app, I have iTunes on my pc as it states it needs it so already had that. I just could t get the camera to connect , just said ‘waiting on usb connection’ no matter what I tried. After some googling I found a page which suggested actually running the iTunes app in the background, phones/cameras showed up straight away with iTunes open on laptop. Be interested to know from developer if there is a way to skip this step or do I need to make sure iTunes is running when streaming, it’s not biggee really but if it can be sorted then great..Version: 3.0.1
✓ Not sure why people don’t like this, it’s greatI have tried several of the options out there, including paying for epoccam. None of them are as easy to use as this one. Yes it’s expensive, but the developer gets to choose what it costs. If you want it, you pay. If you don’t, walk away. This is also the only app that I could get to send 1080p from my phone to the mac. The other option I tried could not get obs to receive it that way. For people thinking you can use this to get obs to send your phones video to skype, why would you think that? This app is specifically for getting the video to obs. Obs to skype/zoom/etc is entirely different functionality, called virtual webcam. The devs of this have nothing to do with that. There is a plug-in for obs to serve as a virtual webcam. It’s not available for Mac, but currently being worked on to be brought in natively to obs. But it makes no sense to slam the developer of this because of a lack of that feature in obs..Version: 2.5.3
✓ It worksYou need to install a plugin on you computer and be sure to connect your phone to iTunes on you computer as iTunes will authorize the app and install a plugin on its end..Version: 3.0.1
✓ 3 weeks in... 6 successful streams!Working with Will (this App’s Developer) has been amazing. I encounter some technical issues “out of the box” while using the app, and after reaching out to Will with the details and logs, he got it fixed and prepped a new release with VAST improvements over what I had purchased! I absolutely recommend this app for anyone wanting a drastic improvement in video quality over a webcam for OBS. The app is very simple, and the improvements coming down the line are even better!.Version: 2.5.3
✓ GreatSaved me from buying a cheap and bad webcam during quarantine. Works perfectly when used properly and correctly. Would recommend tobpeople needing an alternative to a webcam..Version: 3.0.1
✓ Just worksI decided last minute to live stream a performance today. I’ve never used OBS before, and this app just worked straight away. I streamed a 1h 20m gig and this worked non stop. Money very well spent!.Version: 2.5.3
✓ App stop working properlyMy whole screen is showing up in OBS with all the menu as seen on iPhone. Not sure why it stopped working properly. It was working 2-3 days ago now it’s not...Version: 3.0.1
✓ As others have said, does what it says on the tinI bought this to enable using my iPhone to record a video for a teacher friend using OBS with a green screen. Blown away with the results and so were the children at the school where she works. Great App..Version: 3.0.1
✓ An innovative and useful appThis app is extremely useful if, like me, you want better quality out of a webcam but don’t want to invest in ‘proper’ equipment. Given that the iPhone has such a decent video capture mode, it sometimes seems wasted when you go to record something on your computer (or perhaps stream) and you then have to rely on the Logitech or Microsoft webcam you bought in 2005. The seamlessness with which the app ‘just works’ with OBS probably masks the amount of effort the developer dedicated to its development. I’m very pleased with the results and consider this app to be well worth the asking price. I oscillate between using OBS on the Mac and PC. If you’ve used the Mac version, you’ll probably be aware of its occasional sluggishness. That manifests itself with this app a bit in the fact that what you see on-screen seems a little laggy while recording, but at least in my case, the output is always absolutely fine. I suspect it may be more of an OBS thing. Many thanks to the developer for putting the time in and I hope the program continues to be popular enough to support for the longer term..Version: 2.5.3
✓ Great app, great dev supportI am using this app with an iPod as an OBS source via an Ethernet connection. This allows me to have very low latency in my OBS stream and power the iPod at the same time. The iPod is mounted high on a side wall, and this app allows me to control all of the camera settings right in the OBS screen. It’s a great setup and works very well. I did need some help with getting the app and iPod to work as intended over an Ethernet connection, and after a few emails back and forth the dev was able to help me get everything up and running..Version: 3.4.1
✓ Works well on iphone 11Using an iphone 11 im getting really good video quality out of it. I installed a plugin on my pc so i also yse this for video chat on discord and as a camera in a unity project im doing. Great app, but a little pricey.Version: 2.5.3
✓ It’s great!!It’s great just did a dj stream with it, only problem is once or twice it just randomly crashed but other than that it’s AMAZING!.Version: 3.4.1
✓ Audio doesn’t workAudio doesn’t work on iPhone 11 Pro. Audio constantly cutting out. However video works great..Version: 2.5.3
✓ So far amazingWow... I was super Leary about paying this much for an app, but I told myself, “hey I have wasted more on dumber things”. To be honest I had some issues getting it to work, but not because the app was broken, but I did not read the FAQ’s. 1. Make sure iTunes is installed and setup 2. Make sure the plugin is installed 3. Add the device in OBS 4. Open the app then connect the USB. Boom works perfectly and the video quality is amazing. I directly compared it to a Logitech 1080p cam. No comparison to the iPhone XS Max using this app. Yes, I know the camera on the iPhone is superior, but didn’t know how it would be with the app.. have to say it is amazing . Spend the money it is worth it. I’ll try to reposted after streaming for extended times to make sure there is no issues ..Version: 2.5.3
✓ Help with an update issueI’ve been using OBS for live streaming my fitness platform for the last couple months and absolutely love it! About 3 weeks ago, after an update, the voice settings were off and somehow my voice tone was lowered significantly. I had no idea what was going on and tried everything on my end to fix it but had no luck. I sent an email to OBS and was totally prepared to not hear anything back for days. To my surprise, I got an email response within minutes about my issue and an awesome dude by the name of Will kindly let me know it appeared to be an issue on their end. Within 30 minutes, we were testing things out together and finding a solution. The issue was fixed but I’m just so grateful for the awesome communication on the OBS end to help a newbie like me continue to run my business and solve the problem. Super impressed and happy to be a part of the OBS fam..Version: 3.1.1
✓ Great AppWe purchased the app earlier this year for use on iPhones as our video source for the live streaming at our church via OBS Studio. It has been great to use and the video quality through USB is also great. We have used it with three recent iPhone models. We recently contacted the developer to address a minor issue and it was fixed within days. Highly recommend!.Version: 3.0.3
✓ Literally a GAMECHANGERI’ve been tweaking my OBS setup for a month now and getting everything in order. As a Mac user it’s been a task to try and find plugins and things that work with the Native Apple OS. OBS Camera makes it all worth it. The Logitech C922 “Pro Stream” is $100 for quality that is frankly....trash. With OBS Camera I’m able to plug my iPhone in and just go. Setup is easy and it helps offset the cost of streaming the video content people wanna see! Do yourself a favor if you have an iPhone. Buy. This. App..Version: 3.1.1
✓ Works well for me, full quality to zoomThe order is important, have to open both OBS on computer and the phone app, BEFORE connecting the phone. If you do the wrong order you have to close the app on the phone, disconnect the phone, reopen the app and then reconnect. Sometimes it take a few clicks of “reconnect to this device” in OBS to get it working. Never has cut out on me, great support with light adjustment issue on iPhone 11 Pro. Full resolution and quality when going OBS to zoom (via NDI plugin in OBS), which I couldn’t get with epoccam or ivcam direct into zoom or through OBS.Version: 3.0.3
✓ It works. But battery drain is a problem.Disclaimer: I’m using this on an iPhone 6s Plus so my battery isn’t great anymore. $30 for a high quality webcam is a good price so I took the risk and I got it to work great except for two main issues (one I may be able to work around, the other I think ruins it for me). The issue I think I can work around is that the camera stop working when you get a phone call, the app is interrupted I suppose so it makes sense, I could probably put it on airplane mode or something to stop that I assume. The other issue is that even though I have it plugged into my computer the battery drains faster than it can charge. I wanted to use this for streaming so that kind of ruins it for me as my session time would be limited. Now I do have red USB ports on my computer that I could try with this (they output more power) but I don’t know if this will mess with the quality of the connection in other ways. I haven’t tried it yet because they are a pain to get to. If you think of it as $30 for a high quality webcam it’s good, but I wouldn’t personally consider it a long term webcam solution for myself (unless I got a new phone so my old iPhone 6s Plus was only used as a webcam and I manage to fix the battery issue)..Version: 2.4.1
✓ Great AppI bought this app to live stream on Facebook during the Covid19 crisis, webcams are in short supply so thought I would try the OBS camera app. It worked perfectly on my Windows 10 machine. You need to follow the connection process in the dev’s documentation!.Version: 2.5.3
✓ Great appGreat app to use, money well spent. Could be better if the flashlight could be able to be turned on as the live filming begins... so another functionality of the iphone could be utilised just like its camera without the need to buy seperate lighting equipment..Version: 2.5.3
✓ No contact or responseI purchased this app in December in hopes to use this for streaming my iOS on OBS and the option would not show up in that program. I contacted Will the programmer multiple times on email, Facebook and Instagram it received no response. I went through all the troubleshooting. I hate to leave a bad review but there was no support on a very expensive $26 app (Canadian).Version: 2.5.3
✓ No landscape!! Permanent usb connection warning!!Edited! I initially thought the app wasn’t working, but I had not followed the instructions. It is not quite as straightforward as plug in and go, you need to make sure you also have the obs camera plugin for OBS installed, and do this before you connect your iOS device. (Slightly clunky for a paid-for app, hence 4 stars not 5). Definitely works so long as you follow the instructions carefully..Version: 2.5.3
✓ Worth it!Finally! Somebody did it. We can finally use the iPhone as a webcam via cable for PC! I rather support and continue using this app than some weird unknown software that only works over the WiFi to be able to use my iPhones or the spare older iPhones that you have lying around as a webcam. This app from what I can gather is fairly new and it obviously needs some work but it does what it says it does. Yes, they are some really low reviews and some sound like they’re children but like I said this apps is going through the process of becoming something great so... Give it time, support, and help by writing to the developer any bugs you come across and he will most likely address it faster with updates!.Version: 1.2.0
✓ Excellent Quality and OptionsThis app is well worth the price. It saved me from buying an expensive webcam for OBS, if I can even find a webcam since they’re all out of stock. Follow the guide online. The plugin is easy. I think I had to restart OBS just once to get iOS Camera to appear. Open the app, connect via USB, et voila, you have video. I like the zoom and exposure options. Make sure to mute the iPhone mic in OBS if you have another audio input. This is a life saver of an app!.Version: 3.0.3
✓ IOS input plug-in updated for OBS 28I just wanted to express my gratitude for how quickly the developer updated their OBS plug-in to use this app to be compatible with OBS 28. Also, since that plug-in is only applicable for people using the USB input, just a note that until OBS NDI plug-in is updated by its developer (supposedly in progress), you can download the NDI tools from Newtek and use the NDI virtual input program to patch an NDI stream to a webcam stream and bring it in to OBS that way..Version: 3.4.1
✓ Waste of moneyBought this hoping to use as a Facebook live camera, works well so far, took a while to set up, need to get plugin in to the OBS studio..Version: 2.5.3
✓ Some apps come from the heartThis app is excellent. I found it did not work as well on my older iPhones but on my newer iPhones it works perfectly(6 and up). I can’t tell you how many times I’ve said to myself boy wouldn’t it be nice if I could just use my iPhone as a WebCam. The developer seems to have improvements in the works and he is very responsive to community feedback. Thanks wtsnz! Your work is very much appreciated!.Version: 2.0.1
✓ Does what it says on the tin!Yesterday, I spent the day getting to grips with OBS (with the help of an excellent 2 hour training video which I purchased), and this morning found this App after some research and testing of other such Apps which had failed to achieve a successful outcome. This App has worked perfectly from the very start, and I have spent the day testing it with 4 cameras, all IOS devices; an iPhone 10 XS Max, an iPhone 6S and two iPad Pros giving me a 4 camera setup. I have had this on test and experimenting for 6 hours now and it works well. I looked at all the reviews before purchase, and did my research. There are a number of very positive reviews, together with some negative reviews. I can only assume that the people who have posted negative reviews have probably not followed the instructions, read all the FAQ and have not put in the time to secure an initial setup and test. You need a good basic understanding if OBS before you start I would suggest, and need to set a little time aside. It’s not the cheapest of Apps, but it delivers ‘what it says on the tin.’ If an app delivers what I need, then I am always happy to purchase it and support the developer and it’s future development..Version: 2.5.3
✓ What I’d love to see...The app works great overall. I’d love to see one possible feature developed though. During livestreams for my band we use 4 phones to give different views (one overview, one for each bandmate) but the view in each is a static field of view. It would be REALLY something if there was an extension of the app to allow each camera to randomly zoom in for closeups once in a while—just to give a bit more visual dynamics to the livestream. A 5 second zoom in for a closeup, then pull back out to full frame. We are playing so we can’t control the cameras—they are fixed frame. It would add a bit of dramatic flair to the footage if that feature was added. The controls would include speed of zoom, extent of zoom, and perhaps have it react to transients in the audio feed to go “monkeycam” when the music gets really frenetic. Maybe someone else will do this first in their app. I’d love yours to be the first to do so though!.Version: 3.1.1
✓ Fantastic!Been forced into the world of live streaming for the first time and OBS has been the way in for me. Wanted to use my iPhone as the camera so downloading this app was a must. It worked first time, simple to use and meant I was up and running in minutes. A few weeks in I had a major latency issue crop up so contacted the developer and they replied pretty much instantly with great advice and were very friendly - following their input got it all sorted and in time for that week’s live stream. What can I say? Great app and great support 👍🏻.Version: 3.0.1
✓ Camera is lagging all the timeI’m using the app for about a month now to stream on twitch and I was having a lagging camera problem all the time. I tried to be patient, as previously I just needed to refresh the app and it was not lagging anymore. But today it was impossible to stream because of the app, even if I was refreshing the app every 10 minutes. If it was free, then oh well, but now about 20 euros for an app that is not working properly. I don’t know....Version: 3.0.0
✓ Great app but can be difficult to set upUpdated review: OK, so I have now got this working and have updated the review. The problem I had with it is that there was a conflict with another process running. It was some application that was running in the background with an icon in the toolbar - it MIGHT have been Automap server by Novation but I’m not 100% sure as I was exiting a few apps in the toolbar to test whether there was a conflict. The app works great and is actually very easy to use (and high quality) once it is set up. You might get lucky and it just works but if not, it can be very difficult to fix. The reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is that the support is somewhat lacking. The docs are limited and there are a lot of issues like this discussed in the OBS forums but no responses from dev (from what I’ve seen). ———— Old review: I paid for this app and it has never worked. It’ll connect fine to my MacBook Pro and then seconds later the feed just freezes. I’ve tried everything, yes including wiring the device directly to the USB-C port on the Mac. I’ve looked at all the discussion of issues online. Save your money and look elsewhere, this simply doesn’t work..Version: 3.1.1
✓ Streaming made simple!Bought this app desperate for an easy solution to simple live-streams for a local church. Instead of buying an expensive camera, to utilize my iPhone 11 camera for just $25 is an absolute steal! Developer is quick to respond to any issues, and helped us resolve a glitch within hours on a Saturday!.Version: 2.5.3
✓ Perfect cam app for OBSThis has been the most amazing App - I have (so far) done 46 consecutive 2 hour Facebook shows and it’s performed perfectly and given incredible quality - highly Recommended.Version: 3.0.1
✓ Works PerfectlyI initially had some freezing problems when using this with my iPhone 12 Pro (it worked without problems on my old iPhone 6S). I was able to resolve this by switching the usb connection to a 3.0 USB port. This isn’t the easiest app to setup, once you have it working though; everything runs flawlessly..Version: 3.1.1
✓ A learning experienceI’m editing my previous review. I had initially given this a lower rating. This app promises a lot and I was excited to try it, even at the high cost. At first I was disappointed because it wasn’t working right. Turns out it’s a little more complicated than I was prepared for. I’m used to more plug and play stuff so it’s been a bit of a learning experience. However, it gives you a great amount of control over the camera. I just need to learn more about how it works but so far I’ve been able to connect to a Mac and a PC..Version: 3.0.1
✓ Great app, Crashes are a problem thoughI love this app and have used it for a long time, lately though I’ve been experiencing an issue where I can’t switch camera lenses without the app crashing (even to front facing) on my iPhone 13 Pro. If that was fixed it would be an easy 5 star.Version: 3.4.1
✓ Best in classLove it..Version: 3.0.3
✓ Fantastic!Having struggled with other apps to turn my iPhone into a webcam, I found this app. The set is easy and it connects to obs studio straight away - once a plug in is downloaded. The picture quality is great - well worth the cash. The connection has not dropped once in 4 hours of streaming so far. Highly recommend this app..Version: 3.1.1
✓ LagsVideo lags and does not match to my audio when I use an external mic.Version: 3.0.2
✓ IOS Camera plug in will crash OBSI appreciate what Will is trying to do here but the iOS plugin download will crash OBS. And it will not open, even if you try to open/execute it from terminal. If you have macOS or an iPhone don’t bother. Also if you try to use it with the cable without downloading the iOS plugin your screen will have a bunch of buttons on it and will freeze and not resume unless you unplug and plug back in which isn’t feasible. Save your money for the time being maybe one day it’ll work. Also if OBS won’t open for you uninstall the iOS plugin/driver and I’m hoping that will do the trick. Now I have to go about getting a refund..Version: 2.5.3
✓ Simple, easy, high quality webcam. Worth it!This app is a no brainer for anyone looking for a new webcam, or even just wanting a higher quality webcam. With a spare iPhone, or even your own iPhone with this app, it’s incredibly easy to get running, and you don’t need to buy any new hardware! Just follow the directions on the developer website, everything is laid out right there. Once you get a successful connection, it just works! I have only used the USB connection as that really makes the most sense so you can charge your iPhone at the same time while using the fastest quality connection. For anyone wondering whether you can have another app running while this app is in the background (e.g. twitch chat), you cannot unfortunately do that. However, using a spare iOS device solves this. Overall, fantastic app and amazing developer with quick responses to questions. Thanks Will!.Version: 2.5.3
✓ Great Quality! Low Latency!I was able to get everything working in OBS Studio in less than five minutes. Nearly no latency with the wired connection (there is always going to be some degree of lag), which is why I chose this app over the other options out there. I haven’t really pushed it yet to see whether I can get some 4K or 1080p60 streaming happen, but 1080p30 is still incredible. Thanks Will for making a great app! 👌🏻.Version: 3.0.1
✓ Works great, what about streamlabs?Can this work with streamlabs obs as well?.Version: 3.0.1
✓ One of the best apps ever!I purchased this app about a week ago while trying to get an app to use my old iPhone as a camera for OBS while I stream on twitch. After a little install and a few instructions this app was up and running. During these times where webcams are crazy over priced this app is the go to if you are in need of a webcam like I was. I also had a question so I emailed them and within a few hours they had responded and helped me figure everything out. I can not say enough about how greatly appreciative I am of these guys and their app. Thank you so much!!.Version: 3.0.1
✓ Worth every penny.This app works great. I use it to record long art time-lapses. The video quality is clear without artifacts. I don’t record audio or stream with the app. The small file sizes are exactly what I need and because my iPhone is attached using the lightning cable, battery life is not an issue..Version: 3.0.3
✓ My old iPhone 9 no longer lives in a drawer!I use this app and my old iPhone to add a second “selfie” cam to my streams, and I absolutely love it. Every once in a while when starting the app I have to unplug/replug the phone’s USB cable for OBS to see it, but once that’s done I’ve streamed for hours with no issue. Overall I really think this app is perfect for what I need it for. I’m thrilled my old iPhone has a new lease on life as quality streaming camera (love that portrait orientation!), much better than any regular USB webcam!.Version: 3.1.1
✓ Simple set up, fantastic qualityNot much to review here. This was pretty much plug and play. I’m completely new to OBS and set this up within a minute or two with no difficulties at all. The only issue was that the camera quality was so high. My self esteem couldn’t cope with seeing my face in such laser sharp detail. That aside, well worth the money. Set up: MacBook Pro (base 2015 model), iPhone 8, USB connection via a USB hub -> using OBS Virtual Cam for conference calls on Zoom, Teams, etc..Version: 3.1.3
✓ Add streamlabs OBS!Great app, really working good with iPhone X in OBS! It would be great if you could add a plugin for Streamlabs OBS, is it possible? Thanks, Atomic.Version: 2.1.0
✓ Great app and devI’ve been using this app for about a year with no issue whatsoever. It does a great job with OBS and for Twitch streaming. A recent update included a bug with some flickering. I contacted support and had a response within the same day! They invited me to the Beta program and the issue was resolved within days. Now it’s back to being the same reliable app. No need for a new camera with this..Version: 3.1.3
✓ So useful.It was only really this year that I realised how terrible webcam quality is on my laptop(s). This app provides me as choral leader to broadcast at a higher quality. With an added bonus it makes it SO easy to add external to keep it in sync. I’ve paired this with a ‘Belkin Rockstar’ which means I can use the line out of my Mic/Interface and have that route directly into my iPhone which syncs with the camera and goes into OBS studio. So no latency! Perfect..Version: 3.1.1
✓ Great AppWorks as advertised, exactly what I was looking for. Helps to have some familiarity with OBS, but once setup it does a great job. The UI is clear and unobtrusive, no clutter. Developer is helpful and responsive over email..Version: 3.0.1
✓ It Works!I see other reviews of people who can’t get this to work, but it does. I was a little confused at first because it does take several steps to set this up: 1. Buy the app 2. Have iTunes installed and used at least once. 3. Install OBS 4. Get the OBS iOS camera source plugin from the app website and install with OBS closed 5. Plug in your iOS camera and launch OBS (your app will say “USB: Waiting for connection” until the last step) 6. Add “iOS Camera” (not to be confused with video capture device) 7. Open settings for iOS camera in OBS and choose your device 8. Choose Refresh Devices/Reconnect to Device On a side note, the live feed doesn’t seem to work well with anything past 1080p, but neither do the $200 webcams you would have to buy instead. Keep working on the app it’s great, thanks!.Version: 2.4.1
✓ This is SO HELPFULI only just installed this and got the premium. But I did a bunch of testing before, and I can highly recommend this as a budget option for all things OBS. I can stream 1080p 60 fps video from my phone wirelessly, or low latency via USB, easily! I can go as high as 4K 60fps if I want. I prefer the 1080p option however. But this is the easiest to download, use, and understand software that I could find for using my phone via USB as a webcam in OBS studio. Thank you. If I have any issues with the app or with it within obs, I’ll make an updated review. But so far, as of Day 1 using this app. This has been very pleasant and convenient..Version: 3.2.1
✓ Irreplaceable!I noticed some low reviews for this app, and I can only assume that this person has other issues that were unrelated to this app, and they jumped the gun. Trust me when I tell you... during the quarantine, I was forced into a position to learn (quickly) how to stream our worship service at Forks United Church of Christ in Stockertown, PA. I’m their A/V Tech as well as Music Director. I quickly discovered OBS, but was extremely disheartened by camera quality. I tried multiple webcams... and I mean decent ones. I even purchased a game capture device and tried using my Sony HD camcorder. It was noticeably better, but latency was an issue, and the video still lacked what I needed. This app is incredible. The iPhone cameras are SO much better than moderately priced webcam options. I love it so much, I purchased an iPhone 8 from eBay just to use as a second camera. Even at $200, it’s far better than any option in that price range. Here’s the best part... I ran into a slight technical issue, so I emailed Will. He was incredibly helpful and extremely nice. I love this app! Get it!.Version: 3.0.1
✓ Delayed in the camera.Since oBS update this app is delayed - feels like I’m in a badly dubbed movie right mown.Version: 3.1.3
✓ Fantastic appTested with two phones for a dual cam setup and worked flawlessly. Internet connection quality and device capability (ram and graphics) matter to take full advantage of the app. Use wired connection when on unknown wifi network. Great work!.Version: 2.5.3
✓ Great, but needs a remote controlGreat app. However, it would be amazing if the plug-in within OBS could remote control the camera settings. I do a lot with top down cameras, so having to set the parameters on the phone screen is a serious pain. If I could do it within OBS using a little UI everything would be so much easier..Version: 3.1.2
✓ A great asset, ruined with its price tagThis app features an all-encompassing package of great tools to have a great video source in OBS. It is highly customizable and also provides an audio source for your comfort. Both the USB and NDI method works flawlessly and causes no inconvenience. This app used to be a great help to me when I participated in my online classes and I used to use my brother’s iPhone which had this app in it. Unfortunately, the app is now using a subscription business model and the lifetime plan costs about 7 times more. I definitely understand the maintenance costs of this app but I can’t afford it now with my country’s ridiculous exchange rates. Despite the pricing, I definitely recommend this app for those who can afford it. And at last, I appreciate the developer for making this possible..Version: 3.2.3
✓ Great app!I’m on a MacBook Pro 2018 and after faffing about with other apps trying to get them to work with OBS, this one did the job easily! I can now use my phone (IPhone 6) as a webcam via USB really easily and with great results! I use the audio on my Mac, so I have to remember to switch the mic off, but my t works like a dream each time..Version: 3.1.0
✓ Powerful App, for Strong iPhonesBeen in the market for a 4K@60 usb streaming app that I can just plug and play my phone in for, and this seems to be a solid option. I can take 4K@60 videos but I stop/start a lot when making content so this isn't a flexible option for me. The app's price was a little high if I'm honest coming in at $70 something for a lifetime purchase, maybe the subscription model would be best for others but I can understand developers gotta eat too. So overall solid app and functionality, I used DroidCam ($5 for 1080@60) up until it no longer supported my newest mac which was a pain, and as of now it does not support 4K@60. However on the topic of 4K@60, according to the devs, the app has to encode every frame in real time so, my 11 Pro on the app just can't do 4K@60 on the app. Most likely with the 14 supporting 8K 60 this will be a lot smoother in the future, looking forward to it improving my workflow..Version: 3.2.2
✓ WorksOk so it’s a lil bit of a pain to setup but it works. I want to give it 4 stars because of the price but it’s cheaper than a webcam so... 5 stars.Version: 2.5.3
✓ Please add iPhone Pro 11 support!This app works really well with my iPhone 11 Pro - lovely landscape HD footage for my streaming, as long as you carefully follow the instructions to connect - swipe-close the Apple Camera app before launching OBS Camera is the key - but please please add support for the wide angle lens in the iPhone 11 Pro!.Version: 2.5.3
✓ READ THE WEBSITE !BEFORE DOWNLOADING THE APP.... go to camera.obs website and read the instructions. Once you follow/ read them you’ll see obs camera works on your device. I use an iPhone XR and it works perfectly!.Version: 2.5.3
✓ MrNot too impressed with this software. Was recommended by a friend who had used it successfully in the past. Was not the easiest to set up. But having copied all the same settings from my friends working setup I found mine did not perform in the same way. The phone constanly says on screen waiting for connection. But the screen is mirrored to my MacBook. By tilting the phone the orientation should also do the same on the MacBook. However this does not happen. We spent a good bit of time trying to trouble shoot this with no resolve. In the end had to use the built in camera on the macbook to record. Wasted money. Update. After completely removing the app from both my laptop and phone. Then reinstalling both. It now seems to be working as it should. Not sure why I had problems first time round. My friend uses Mojave OS. While I had Catalina running. But now it works....Version: 3.0.1
✓ A huge improvement !!I use OBS to make videos and I had bought a web cam for it. But the image was not sharp and the biggest issue was that green screening in OBS was a nightmare. Getting a good result was extremely fickle requiring filter adjustment depending time of day and outside light coming in. I always assumed OBS chromakey filter just was not that good. After reading about this app I decided to give it a try. It took just minutes to set up and get a video feed. Wow! the picture from an iPhone really is a magnitude of order better than a good webcam! Then I decided to try the chromakey filter........as soon as I turned on the filter it was perfect! The default settings have a great image. No need to spend 5 minutes tweaking the filter settings! I really really did not want to spend 15 bucks for the App fearing it would not be any better than what I had with the webcam. But it turns out this was money well spent! Installation really was a breeze, I use a USB connection. Can’t speak for the WiFi connection. But it was very quick and simple and the improvements in image quality were huge!.Version: 2.5.3
✓ Flawless on my PCI’m using an iPhone XS connected to a PC and it works flawlessly. I have some hiccups at the beginning but the developer contacted me with the solution. I use this app all the time and never had a problem..Version: 3.0.1
✓ Works Great After Plugin UpdateInitially this app did not work for me, there was a terrible delay and lag that got worse and worse over time. However, after emailing support I downloaded a new version of the OBS plugin and this solved my issue. I turned on “hardware decide” in the plugin settings. I love that I can send my 1080 video into obs now without an expensive camera. Also remember that this isn’t an OBS official app, it’s a 3rd party that has to continually work on and update the app to ensure it works. If you run into an issue, check out the app FAQ or email support..Version: 3.0.0
✓ Works Well For MeI have been using this app for the last twelve weeks without a problem. Does everything I need it to do. Thank you OBS Camera Apology: A previous bad review under my name written by someone who didn’t follow instructions. ITS A GREAT APP 🙌.Version: 3.0.1
✓ App works spot on!I was thrown off by the price originally, due to there being free alternatives but I’m glad I made the investment. Loads of settings in the app that you can play with and really easy to set up providing you follow the instructions. The only negative point I have is that it doesn’t work with stream labs obs. But if I googled it before buying it I would’ve known that 😅 was still able to set up normal obs exactly how my stream labs was. Over all no complaints here and very happy with the app. Saved me spending big money on a decent webcam..Version: 3.1.0
✓ Easy to use!I downloaded this app for streaming a concert from our living room. The app is simple and easy to use! I love how it sleeps when you stream to save the phone from over heating. When I had questions, Will was very helpful as well. Great app!.Version: 2.5.3
✓ One recurring issueI’d firstly like to note that this could be an issue with my connector cable but I’m not totally sure. I have some trouble with the video desynchronising from my audio (the video lags behind sometimes). This issue is normally quickly resolved by reconnecting to the device in obs. I have had few other issues - a new one recently where reconnecting to device did not solve my problem but creating a new iOS camera source did. Also would like to note I do not use the phone microphone but I think it works alright. This app was easy to set up and use for me other than those issues..Version: 2.5.3
✓ Low latency with heaps of settings optionsThere are many other cheaper and free options but none offer options as much as this app! EV, zoom, flash, grid, WB, shutter speed, resolution even to bitrate and output choices of USB or NDI. It will also capture phone mic if needed. Even better to save battery life of phone you can also opt to turn the screen off!! We have been using this since!.Version: 3.1.3
✓ Works on iPhone 5s and iPhone 6Pleased to say got this to work - but although I had iTunes running on my windows 10 laptop, the iOS plugin installed, the iPhone connected via lightning-USB and the green indicator light implying all ok and connected, I had no display either on the iPhone or on the laptop! The reason.... you must reboot your iPhone after installing the app!...easily overlooked and semi-obvious but might be worth mentioning in the, nonetheless, useful instructions..Version: 3.1.1
✓ Worth every pennyI was hesitant for the price, but the level of camera control for this is amazing, and streaming over NDI works very well. Creates a bit of heat which is somewhat expected, but probably could optimize a bit. I think it needs a Connect/Disconnect or Start/Stop button somewhere…I didn’t see a way to stop streaming. It would be nice to have a way to see what is connected too. It says streaming to 2 devices when connected to it, so I guess one is video and one is mic. It would be nice to see the devices connected though..Version: 3.1.3
✓ FantasticUsing this app every week for the last year and it works flawlessly. Only killer feature I would love to have is the ability to flip cameras (front-back) without loosing settings and do it through OBS. Loosing custom zoom settings between use is a bit annoying, but everything works so well, that resetting is not a big deal..Version: 3.1.3
✓ Perfect app for streaming!My fellow co-hosts and I wanted to switch from just an a audio podcast to an audio and video podcast, but we didn’t want to shell out a bunch of money on expensive cameras. After finding out we could use our phones on OBS using this app we jumped on the opportunity. It’s super easy to setup and use, it works great, and the video quality Is amazing! I 100% recommend using this app. It’ll save you a bunch of time and money..Version: 2.5.3
✓ Fantastic appI have used many WiFi webcam apps and they are fantastic yet glitchy and laggy. Yes this app is costly but completely worth it. Please note you must have iTunes installed in order for it to work. (Developer please make this more easy to find in your instructions) This issue was made clear after contacting the support team who in fact replied in minutes to help me as I couldn’t get it to connect at first. Easy to set up and also allows you to stream in 4K and 60fps which makes a very good looking camera considering I’m using an IPhone X. Installing the OBS plug-in was easy too. Great Job with the app and hope this review helps others. Another tip from myself is if you buy a camera adapter phone case you can stream with a wide angle lens or even fish boll. Pros: - Easy to set up - Great support - Easy to use - Built In Mic - Both Front and back facing cameras - all your regularly camera features - USB Compatible Cons: - Pricey - Almost impossible to find on the App Store - Itunes installed to be made more obvious - Would like 4K Widescreen Resolutions.Version: 2.2.0
✓ Great appAfter a bit of head scratching I got this to work. I honestly think the issue was with iTunes. Anyhow, it’s brilliant and well worth the money..Version: 3.1.1
✓ Best on the market!This app is the best on the market for this. Picture quality is great, app stability is great, generally is a flawless experience. If you are looking to use your iPhone in OBS, this is the app to get. It’s worth the money. Make sure you use a really high quality cable plugged directly into system, don’t use cheap aftermarket cables, don’t plug cables into a usb hub. If you don’t use a good cable, you are going to have a bad time. Edit/update: All of my previous gripes are gone! The devs continue to update this and it just gets better and better. If you are on the fence about this at all just buy it! 1. The app now supports 4K60 flawlessly 2. The output no longer glitches or skips! 3. The app has profile features now! You can lock orientation as well as camera choice (like wide angle) and it will default to that when opening. This makes set up a lot easier! Big thank you to the devs. This a perfect app for me and well deserving of 5 stars..Version: 3.3.1
✓ Works brilliantly.I rarely write reviews, but felt I should drop a few words here. I have 2 high-end Logitech webcams for OBS and was looking for a quality upgrade. I was skeptic this would work without issues, but I took a chance. So glad that I did. My iPhone 8 camera blows the Logitechs out of the water. The software works as expected. You might need to quit the app to reconnect in later sessions, but that’s no biggie. Well worth the asking price if you care about the quality of the video you are streaming..Version: 2.5.3
✓ Well worth the money but does need tweakingI bought this app thinking it won’t do the job but I was wrong I own an iPhone 11 Pro Max and didn’t realize the powerful camera I had in my pocket anyway I was about to purchase a Logitech c920 and this blows it out of the water. Now I have noticed when connected the app can cause a slight delay on the camera sometimes but refreshing the device in obs fixes This maybe a little bug no biggie. Over all fantastic app easy setup and does what it states.Version: 3.0.1
✓ So far so good; responsive developer is a reliefSo far this app has performed as well as can be expected. I’ve been using my old iPhone 6+ as a webcam for about 10-15 hours now with few problems. I’ve had some freezing and frame drops but that might be my hardware or internet. I’ve updated and performed some tweaks so we’ll see if things get better from here. When first installing I had an issue so I contacted the developer. The fault was found to be OBS’ but either way the developer got back to me promptly which gives me great confidence going fwd. Well done!.Version: 3.0.3
✓ Essential for live-streaming!I don’t write many reviews but I absolutely couldn’t livestream without this app. Apple/Mac tools are always a limited selection so this has been a fantastic way for a budget streamer like me to use the more than good camera on my iPhone..Version: 3.1.3
✓ Audio input issues on iPhone 11With an iPhone 11, Video to OBS works both wired and wireless but audio is extremely choppy and unusable. Contacted the developer and he invited me to beta test the new version that fixes the issue. I can happily say it fixes the issue and I see some other improvements as well.Version: 2.5.3
✓ 5/5 but..The app works perfectly and smoothly, the only think that i would like to request it’s if it could be updated to be able to use the 3rd lens (wide angle) from the iPhone 11 Pro. I was hoping to use it for my streamings but the only options are 1x (Regular lens) and 2x (Telephoto lens)..Version: 2.5.3
✓ Works great.It works great. You can’t beat the quality and the price either. It’s clear and it’s super easy to use. I’m using it on my Windows 10 build. Only issue I ran into was installing iTunes on my computer first. It didn’t connect properly until I install iTunes. This is actually an Apple issue and not the OBS Cam App. I was hesitant to get this because of the reviews, but I don’t see any of those complaints using this. This is a must if you want to get into streaming or recording using OBS..Version: 2.5.3
✓ Finally an update! :oYou made it!!.Version: 3.0.0
✓ Great app! But...I was really excited about this app! I got it all setup on my laptop (the plugin wouldn’t work so we had to redownload OBS Studio and then it worked) I plugged an iPhone SE into it and I could see the video on the laptop but about a minute later the picture on the laptop screen froze and stopped moving! I had to reconnect and everything! It did it again! I don’t know if the problem was the laptop processing power or the iPhone SE but it stopped working. I do recommend this app but make sure the devices your using have enough power to be able to run it. Also I was using USB so I know it wasn’t lag or WiFi connection. 4/5 stars GREAT APP!.Version: 2.5.3
✓ Superb AppI have to admit I was a little reluctant to buy this as there are a ton of apps that claim to do things .... but don’t .. however this ain’t one of them and I really can’t fault it ... if you follow the instructions given everything works as it should and as claimed by the developer ...I’ve used Logitech cams for years but have never really liked them .. they were pretty much the best out of a bad bunch so I made do .. this app now takes things to a higher level as the iPhone camera is head and shoulders above any webcam I have come across .... one thing to be aware of is that you will need an external mic or use your laptops built in mic .. the developer has said that he is looking into adding the mic function to a future update ... however this app is still worth the money just to get the iPhone camera quality .. Top notch app with great results so thank you to the developer for the work that has clearly been put in to this ..Version: 1.2.0
✓ The best app to use iPhone as a cameraThe mobile app has all options I need. Quality, bitrate, option to turn off the screen, focus and brightness control. The small part that I don’t like right now is the OBS app itself..Version: 3.0.1
✓ Easy to useA lot of people seem to have a problem reading the directions for this device. Simply download the plugin for OBS, purchase the app and you’re good to go. If there’s a problem connecting force close the app, unplug your iPhone, re open the app, and then plug in the cord again and it should connect just fine. Quality looks great and there’s very little latency when using usb cable. Would recommend as a camera solution..Version: 2.5.3
✓ Great appOk so I have no idea why this is only 3 stars app! This app is actually awesome and thanks to it I was able to save lots of money. My iPhone has a better camera than a lot of this webcams out there! One thing I would like to get some help to set up my older iPhone 7+ to work I downloaded the app just like I did on my iPhone X I originally got the app and everything worked beautiful with my iPhone X but with my iPhone 7+ I’m only getting a black screen (no image) i can see it in OBS and it connects but just black screen. Even when I open the app on my iPhone 7+ is no image just black screen. PLEASE HELP.Version: 3.0.0
✓ Awesome solution for iOS videoThis app is great, especially because it offers hardwire connection via USB! There are other OBS solutions for iOS that use NDI over Ethernet, but this can quickly lead to bandwidth problems and force you to sacrifice stream quality. (I personally use a bunch of other many media protocols over Ethernet besides OBS so I am very happy that this app exists for a solid wired USB option.) Although the instructions advise to use Apple lightning cables, I have connected successfully via third-party cables and USB extension cords so you can really space cameras out around the room for a real production studio feel. The instructions also offer a disclaimer that iPhone models 5S and earlier may have encoding issues, but I have used the app successfully with 3 iPhone 5S’s simultaneously streaming at 1080p All around great app, bridges the gap between iOS cameras and broadcast software for a very low price! To achieve the same capability with enterprise-level iOS broadcast software costs hundreds of dollars a year in subscriptions. Keep up the great work guys!!!.Version: 3.0.1
