WebCamera for Positive User Reviews
✓ Great App! Works great!This app works like it should. I can connect my iPhone 5 to my desktop, and use it in many applications, such as OBS and Skype. Any problems others may have with low FPS in higher quality, can be explained by saying they don't have a very fast connection to their desktop computer. I myself cannot use 1080p without having a small delay. I hope the developers can make it to where it can connect directly through USB..Version: 2.6
✓ Works well- few bugs but recommendedWorks well- setup is easy enough, and I was using Skype for a video chat which worked brilliantly. However I should note that there is no sound recorded, which is noted as a future update. The app did drop out the connection a few times but never during a call. Fix a few bugs and this will be essential for around the house video calls..Version: 1.0.9
✓ Geeked Out!I'm thrilled that I can make my iPhone a webcam with this app. I don't video chat very often so I didn't want to purchase a normal webcam. That would have run me $20, $30, $50 or more. This is only a few bucks and it works great. I just used it in Google+ Hangouts. It took me a minute to realize that I needed to change the mic input setting on my Mac, but once I figured that out, the video and audio transferred perfectly. What's even cooler is the fact that all this is wireless! I also like how you can change the video quality. For anyone that may have downloaded this and thought the streaming video quality was bad, you can change that in the settings. Is it the best webcam ever? No, you can buy really expensive HD webcams. But for the money and convenience, this app is perfect..Version: 2.2
✓ IPhone 5 and Mac mini mountain lionPerfectly works without any probs. The video quality is awesome with front camera giving 1280 x 720 and back camera 1920 x 1080. Phone gets a bit hot for long video call. Highly recommends..Version: 2.5
✓ Nice appAnother upgrade to my iPhone.Version: 2.2
✓ Great app!Running this on my iPad 2, and I haven't had any issues! I haven't had any lagging issues, devices (including my pc) freezing, etc. Works BEAUTIFUL with Stickam. Worth the money people!.Version: 2.3
✓ Just what I expectedWorks perfectly with Yahoo! Messenger. Can't wait for sound support to come to PC. That is the only improvement I can think of..Version: 2.0.1
✓ This app is great!!!Sure it crashed when recording video at high res, but lowering the res worked. Good enough for a review as while you can notice some pixellation from the video encoding, the frame rate was excellent apart from in 1080p off the rear camera which is fair enough. If debs read this.. What would make this even more better if there was an 'always on top' feature in the client apps. Good stuff..Version: 2.3
✓ WikidWorks flawlessly on my new iPad and iPhone 3GS using windows 7 and mac osx saved me money on a new webcam.Version: 2.3
✓ Great app, but needs some thingsBest app for this purpose I've ever used. There are just some suggestions I'd like to give: the ability to use the flash in the iPhone 4 and being able to use the device in another orientation, like the opposite one or even upright. :).Version: 1.0.8
✓ Brilliant!Does what it says. Turns iPhone into a webcam. 3 levels of resolution up to 1920 x 1080. Will even record. Setting up was immediate and painless. A free OS X app must first be downloaded and run with iPhone app concurrently. I use it to monitor an environment. Camera must be placed within range of wifi. Can't understand why this app is not more widely known. Highly recommended..Version: 2.3
✓ Great app!Bought the app and really impressed with the function and ease of use! Would happily give 5 stars once sound support has been worked into the app!.Version: 0
✓ Does what it's supposed to doAwesome, no complaints. Works fine with my laptop. 10/10 great job.Version: 2.2
✓ Great!!This app is so great, just what you need for an affordable price and not going to any electronic store, it works pretty well, maybe not the best quality but it is pretty fair for the usage you can do, five+ stars for this app..Version: 2.0.5
✓ Works very well!!!Did everything I wanted it to do, makes a great webcam! You can use it for anything! For those saying it doesn't work remember to download the computer app from their website. When you download the app it gives you the message to do it..Version: 2.5
✓ Great appWorks great for me, and it's so much cheaper then a regular webcam, the setup is a little confusing, but other than that i've used this app for oovoo and skype so far and it works perfectly.Version: 2.2
✓ Good app (if you actually read & follow the complete installment instructions)Downloaded the app, followed the instructions on how to connect it to my pc, works great, and connects right away! Video quality is also good. Don't think this app deserves a bad rep for those who probably didn't do all the necessary steps.Version: 2.2
✓ Pretty darn goodOkay so the common perception of this app is that its horrible, well i am not involved with the app i swear yet i find the app overall pretty effective, i can do omegle for long periods without it giving me one problem, perhaps the reason its 4 stars instead of 5 is there could be more work done on the video quality and frame rate. Overall good app that does what it says, saves having to buy webcam and software and all that crap..Version: 2.6
✓ IDFK what other peoples problems areThis application has done me great justice for years. These other folk just don't know what the French toast they are doing. I voted it awesome because it does what it's supposed to do just fine..Version: 2.6
✓ Great appGreat little app if u find urself without a headset, I just used it as a mic only and works fantastic. Video is pretty average but does the job.Version: 2.5
✓ AwesomeWow this app is so good and it does work. A great quality picture. I can use both cameras on my iPhone 4 and it is outstanding. Well done SHAPE services and keep up the good work.Version: 0
✓ Worked First TimeInstalled on 3GS and MacBook. Running in under two minutes. Sound works fine, too. As for comments on battery life, it's bound to be reducef if you record and transmit video. I don't think that's the app's fault. Cool to be able to capture from laptop. I intend to use this in the classroom. Good one!.Version: 2.2
✓ I was wrong.Picture is green and there are no settings to change resolution. Using USB connection - computer does not have wireless. Is that the issue with quality? Direct connection should be better, I would think. Revision: it was horrible the first day- I sent a note to support. They never responded by email, but the program updated and it works perfectly now..Version: 2.8.1
✓ Best Webcam App on the MarketI don't know what everyone's issue is with this app. This is literally the only app that allows use of your phone camera as a webcam in-browser via Adobe flash. I've found some similar apps that work in Skype but never via flash. Epoccam is trash, every IP cam I've tried is trash. This thing is hands down the best. I had it up and running in 5 minutes and that's only because it required restart. The quality is equal to 1080p cams, I see it, and the people I talk to see it. There's literally never even been a second of lag or a blimp in audio, its perfect. I'm shocked how low reviewed this app is because for me, it works amazingly well. I'm running it on an IPhone7s, and on a windows 7 partition in a Mac, direct LAN with 50mbps connection, nothing fancy, in fact quite dated. Apple/windows integration is usually spotty at best but again, this app came through. Can't recommend enough!.Version: 2.10
✓ Great app but one faultThis app is fantastic, there is no lag between the computer and the phone and it's easily set up. The only thing, and I know I'm not the first person to mention it, is that the screen has to stay on when the cam is connected to the computer which drains the battery super quickly and makes the phone heat up. It can't be that complicated to enable the screen to go to sleep while the camera is still rolling that it cannot be done. Or at least let the screen go into darkened mode after a moment. I hope you guys can fix this for us because that will make this application absolutely perfect. Thanks!.Version: 2.3
✓ Works great! Does exactly what it says.Here's my system: - 2010 MacBook Pro 17 running OS X 10.6.8 - iPhone 4 running iOS 4.3.5 (8L1) Installation was incredibly easy and worked perfectly with no stumbling points. It automatically detected the desktop software and was set up in seconds. I was able to see my video stream on my desktop in about a minute. The frame rates at medium and high resolution are not fantastic (720p is just 2-3fps) but I imagine that has more to do with network speeds than anything else. This is incredibly useful as a tool to see into tight spaces. With the ability to turn on the flash light while it's in operation, you can see if your keys really are behind the fridge, etc. The only thing that could really use improvement is giving the Desktop software the ability to display the video steam at the resolution it's coming in at. The window is very small, even at 720p. I have not tested this app with any other applications as I'll be using it as a diagnostic tool to perform timing adjustments on my old Porsche. It's really hard to see the timing marks deep in the engine bay, and I was looking for a way to put my phone in the engine bay and adjust the timing by watching my laptop screen. This will work perfectly. All in all, does exactly what it's supposed to with a very simple interface. For a coupe dollars this is absolutely, completely worth it. Thank you guys for making this app!.Version: 2.2
✓ Works great for meI downloaded this while being a bit skeptical but it worked right away without a hitch. Decent quality and features, definitely worth the cost..Version: 2.2
✓ Love it!I don't know about all the people who say its capture rate isn't sufficient, it's choppy, etc. I think the issue for them is wifi or something because this app works just how it's supposed to-your phone becoming a webcam for your computer! I've used to so far with Skype, stickam, and OMEGLE and have no complaints. Love it love it love it-definitely worth the 3 bucks. (:.Version: 2.3
✓ Better than the built-in cam on my notebookAfter downloading, and being really disappointed with another cam app, I gave this one a try. The download link for the driver on the dev's website didn't work for me, so I sent them an email, and they very promptly replied with a link that did. Once the driver is installed, the app pairs with your computer (a Windows notebook in my case) easily and produces a high quality images and good frame rate, In the 3 weeks I've used it, I haven't come across any cam based websites that aren't compatible with it. Like any app that uses the camera, it can drain your battery quickly, so best to charge your phone while running it if using for an extended time. I'm stoked - great app, responsive developer, and where else can you get a webcam for 3 bucks?.Version: 2.2
✓ Excellent app- used on iPhone 4, iOS 7.1.2I recently came into possession of several old iPhone 4’s. I was interested in turning them into IP cameras, but so far, nothing had worked. I didn’t expect this to, but I was pleasantly surprised. The resolution is low, but for the hardware that it is running on, it’s pretty good. If you run into problems setting it up on windows, go to settings -> windows firewall -> allow apps thought firewall and check all of the mobiola and bonjour service boxes. 10/10 excellent program..Version: 2.10
✓ Very good, but.....It disconnects a lot and lags with higher quality therefore making it useless to use the higher quality features. Please make an update that fixes the disconnecting issues and such. Desktop application needs an update too.Version: 2.3
✓ Works PerfectlySince the reviews are all over the place I thought I should put in my experience. In short, perfect. I am using it on an iPhone 4 to stream video and audio over a wifi network to my Windows desktop computer that is on the same network. There is very little delay and the video quality is amazing. This program does provide real time video and it works. I see this is not everyone's experience, but it has worked flawlessly for me, so I thought I should let people know..Version: 2.6
✓ Great appBought this app so I could put Skype onto my TV and put my iPhone in front as a webcam. Worked a treat people on the other end could hear and see clearly, medium quality level was sufficient. Relatively easy to install too, although the PC program took a little while..Version: 2.3
✓ Its not trueI tried its free to chat wid yahoo on wifi ...... Its great app...LOVE IT & MUST BUY ...dont wast ur 50 to 100$ on wireless accessories..its just awsome.Version: 0
✓ Awesome Solution!Works like a charm - right out of the box (pardon cloud ;-) ). Switching the video source within Skype is such a great feature! I was about to buy the new LOGITECH WiFi Broadcaster (WiFi Webcam) - a 200 US$ web cam - but now with this solution for iPhone & iPad there is simply no need to buy one! Thanks SHAPE team!.Version: 2.5
✓ Works perfectlyQuick and easy to install. I mean, 2min, seriously. And there is even a MAC version And the sound is coming ? What are you waiting for ?!.Version: 2.0.5
✓ Works greatUsing my iPhone 6+ as a web camera in obs to stream to twitch. No lag, looks great, and I can mute it. Shows up in every program I use as a webcam just like a normal webcam. (Tested with xsplit, obs, and ffsplit)..Version: 2.8.1
✓ Unlike all the other crap ones it actually worksTook 5 minutes to setup, works like a charm and hooks easily into applications. Nice job..Version: 2.10
✓ Worth itI'm lovin it..Version: 0
✓ Best webcam app but..This app is really good I can have the highest res and it still barely lags best is the middle res doesn't lag at all but I can't seem to get the mic to work....Version: 2.2
✓ Very Good StartApp installed quickly on my iPhone 4 as did the necessary software onto my MacBook running Snow Leopard. The two devices found each other and "just worked!" Until I went into setting on my computer that is. Can't do that, it crashes every time. I wonder what is there? I hope to find out after the next update! I'm happy with this product as a very good start and I have high hopes that they'll develop it into a great product!.Version: 1.0
✓ GreatWorks perfect for me, you have to expect a little bit of stutter as the video is streamed over wifi, though all things considered it does a great job. The software you install on your pc is very lightweight unlike a lot of apps which is nice. Oh and video is also 720p on the highest setting :-).Version: 2.5
✓ Works! Totally coolSuper super great deal if you're looking for a quick way to get a web cam .. I have an iPhone 4. Don't have a webcam anymore so looked around at a few to read reviews and decided to purchase this one. Get the app and the computer install they tell you, and it works! Yes it has audio, but you only hear it after you record a segment and then go to play it back. So not while you're recording.. At least if you're just trying it out like I was for the first time right now.. Not sure about messengers like Skype (don't use those type of thing). Simple and no bs, worth it for what it does!.Version: 2.6
✓ Amazing but could do moreSuch a great app.. All I would add is iPad capability to make most of the lack of a camera on the iPad itself *update: apparently iPad compatibility isn't possible.. But still a great app and 100% customer relations, quick to answer any query (satisfied customer... Check).Version: 2.0.1
✓ Works perfectly with MacCan’t really fault this, I’ve used it reliably for live stage shows with no problems. Only request would be to add a video control to up the quality of the transmitted stream which is a little low at the moment.Version: 2.10
✓ It's goodIt's good it did what I originally wanted it for which was just to stream the camera to my pc, did tested out the playback of sound from my pc to the iPad on the app and found a huge delay..Version: 2.2
✓ Great App.Setup is a breeze, works straight out of the box, had to hunt a bit to find the link for the PC Componant but no probs. after I found it..Version: 2.8.1
✓ Not bad at allHad NO problem installing this and the desktop software to my i7 PC running Windows 7. Worked great on Skype and FaceBook video chat and my iPhone also acted as the microphone so the other party could hear me. Thier voice came thru on my PC speakers just fine. Video wasn't choppy, even at full screen and quality depended on the lighting. It will eat your iPhone battery up but was easy to just plug in the iPhone's USB cable to the desktop and it worked perfectly for a 3 hour video session on FaceBook video..Version: 2.5
✓ As good as expectedI'm running mac mini server and the iPhone 4s, and after I figured out how to get the desktop app, the connection worked fine. I am not using it for a webcam, but rather a wireless camera for iStopmotion. It is suitable as a camera, except for the zoom not working in app, and an upgrade from a wired camera. With this and a quality camera stand adapter case iStopmotion can use your iphone..Version: 2.3
✓ Belting This is a fantastic app. Blew me away. I was a little dubious before I download it but works fantastically well. Far better than expected. This is a very well put together application. There are a few additions I would like though: (sound): I know I could buy the additional app but an "all in one" would just sell like crazy. Combine your apps PLEASE! I know it states on the app description that sound is coming soon. FINGERS CROSSED it arrives soon - before the would be just fantastic. Screen Rotation: I use an holder and rotation would come in handy. Please integrate the gyro sensor API. Anyone considering downloading this app; don't consider; just do it; it's on the cheap at the moment too. I have one small reservation is that using the back on full resolution is very twitchy and I'm on a rapid network too. But on medium resolution it's just BLOW AWAY (no I don't work at Apple)! Can't wait to get out and about using this app. Yes I have given this app 5 's; it would be 10 if these small additions were to be added. Is that I hear coming just round the corner? For the developers: here is an early christmas present from me: Nearly forgot: with the please make it work with the in built and and not just with the ..Version: 0
✓ Wonderful wireless cam appI never write reviews on AppStore and if I do it's to tell how crap it is and how can I get my money back but for mobiola/webcamera using home/private network wifi (it will not work not if you use public wifi as you've already guessed!) they are too good not be mentioned. I'm having so much fun with the application that the only limit I have is the sound, locking the phone and the battery short life and warning up if using the iPhone for a long time. Actually for the sound I've noticed that the applications like skype or yahoo messenger are already showing in the settings ''mobiola sound'' but I've not tried yet as you can always bypass by using your ext/internal mic if using your iPhone as a webcam and for the short life battery I just have my cable ready as always. For the lock, you cannot lock your phone as it will stop the application hence you have to turn off automatic lock, I wish they could work on that, same also if your receive a phone call, the application will stop working (but if you use your iPhone as a spy cam or wireless cam you have to adjust around those limits...lol don't use it as a spy cam and your phone is ringing....lol....you see what I mean!). Apart from all that I get a HD webcam (depending of your iPhone generation) and an application for £1.99....if you can find something better, practical and cheaper....please let me know!!! Oh there is one little down side but I can live with it (But please Mobiola can you change that?) is that every time you get a free upgrade for the program installed on your PC/Laptop (to be install for free) you have to reinstall the program. It will be great if they could just add those upgrades without reinstalling the all lot (You see it's a pain to repeat) and also you need a holder for the iPhone but something I did not bother to work on. To cut it short....great 5 stars Application/Program for a nice webcam at the reasonable price....buy.....buy!!!.Version: 2.2
✓ Works on my iPod Touch 4GGood resolution at low setting with front and back cameras. Lags with medium and high resolution. Landscape orientation only - It would be nice if it could be used while iPod is in portrait orientation, as when docked. Easy Windows XP installation, but I had to hunt for the download link. RH.Version: 2.0.5
✓ Great. Just waiting for the sound updateGreat for keeping an eye on our little one, turning the iPhone into a video baby monitor..Version: 0
✓ Best app ever!It works very well with windows systems. I just had a Skype conversation on Skype and it connected at the first attempt. Also the program for the laptop is quick to install and does not give any error. Best money ever spent. I definitely recommend it!.Version: 2.8.1
✓ Frame rate dropGreat app over all, just when I go up to high resolutions my frame rate drops and that can't happen for my needs, but it may be my slow laptop being stupid. If a patch goes out that the data streams through the USB cord so it doesn't drop frames or a path goes out that corrects that issue for slower computers that would be great. So for now 4 stars until the issue gets corrected..Version: 2.2
✓ Needs USB compatibility.This seems like a useful app, but it would be more of potential use to me if I could connect it to my computer and use it as a webcam that way. I have a big house, and instead of using the wifi which barely reaches my room, I use an ethernet cable from my wall to my computer. I don't even know if it's a possible change, but it would be nice if this became available in a future update. Keep up the great work, guys..Version: 2.5
✓ Works GreatDownloaded on Iphone, Powerbook, and Imac and everything worked right off. the only trouble I had was when I had it on high quality picture on the iphone then it would lock up. Best is on Low for capture quality. I like it and recommend it..Version: 1.0.9
✓ Worked 100 % for me.Maybe some people are just not that tech savvy, this app worked awesome for me..Version: 2.11
✓ Best app everYou can use this as a webcam or a spy cam it streams to your computer anywhere you have wifi or 3G it's great to spy on your siblings to..Version: 2.5
✓ Cheap WebcamI have tried this app out with Windows Vista: all works as advertised. For those of you who complained about lack of front facing camera support- it is there - just click on tool button and choose from or back camera. BTW for the next update, please bring the dedicated button to switch between cameras up front. About the quality: this is not your 1080p fancy HD cam, but none of the iPhones cameras are. On the medium setting the quality is acceptable. For some reason when I moved to the room with no router, connection dropped. There is always a minor connection issue: app complains that your computer is firewalled when in fact it is not. All in all not a bad replacement of the USB cam that costs ~$45-50.Version: 0
✓ Brilliant!Not sure why there are so many bad reviews but this is the third webcam app I have tried & I can honestly say I was third time lucky! I've tried minicam (waste of time) but it was free so can't really complain. iwebcamera (Connection to slow) lags to much! But this one was perfect used it with Skype & it was great. When you increase the quality, there is a delay, but that's understandable as it would be with anywhere camera. Great app worth the £2..Version: 2.2
✓ I don't see the problem...Wanted a cheap-ish, easy app to use my iphone as a webcam for livestreaming. And it works like a charm, nice settings, amazing compatibility with programs, I have AUDIO and everything else. If you're having problems maybe try updating to latest OS?.. I don't know, but this is great- five stars. ✨.Version: 2.3
✓ Great Success!Works as advertised! I just got the idea to use my iPhone as a webcam and sure enough there are two apps. I downloaded this one and iWebCamera. It seems like this app has more features and flexibility, and it was a tad cheaper too. Also, I like the promise of the upcoming sound support (this will add the 5th star if well executed). There is a slight delay in the video which I expected due to the fact that it's streaming over wifi. I'd love to see an option to use the usb cable (maybe that would speed up the transfer?). Glad I bought it!.Version: 2.0.1
✓ What a great idea!I've recently been looking for a webcam to use with my external monitor (I can't use the built-in webcam on my laptop as it sits closed underneath the monitor). Whilst browsing for webcams with good reviews I realised my iPhone 5 probably has a better camera built into it than many of the cheap USB webcams I was looking at (sub £30). I Googled to see if anyone else had thought of this, and found this app. After looking at the reviews I decided to purchase the app and I'm thrilled with how well it works. I haven't used the full HD setting yet as Medium works just as well for Skype calls. The phone does get marginally warm when in use, but not alarmingly so. The battery went down about 15% after a 20 minute call. Overall this app does what it says on the tin, the software for the computer is simple and intuitive, and I now have a superb quality webcam, with a built-in microphone, autofocus and no wire - doesn't get any better than that for £2.49!.Version: 2.5
