Initially, Reincubate Camo worked only with Macs and iPhones, but has since been updated so that it's compatible with Windows PCs as well as Android devices. And the free trial also allows you to select one of several different color or black-and-white filters. However, the free app does let you choose between your front and back iPhone lens. However, you’ll need to upgrade for these features-which costs $4.99 a month or $39.99 a year. Reincubate Camo Studio's software provides some nice controls and settings: For instance, you can switch between your iPhone’s different lenses, stream your video at higher resolutions, zoom and pan, add more filters, etc. Plus, it removes ads for other NeuralCam apps.

NeuralCam Live is free, but if you upgrade ($29.99/year or $4.99/month), NeuralCam Live Plus gives you additional features, such as a Low Light mode, a special “Soften” style and other video editing styles. We found it wasn’t consistent at detecting and blurring images. Gesture Guard detects and blurs different types of gestures that you may not want others to see.

In addition to turning your iPhone into a Webcam, the free or trial version of this app also has a few unique features: Head Bubble puts your head in a circle and then masks most everything else. Take note, though, that the app doesn’t work with Safari. Just open it up in your Google Meet meeting, Zoom, or other videochat app. But once you’re hooked up, it works reliably. Unlike other apps in this roundup, this app runs via USB connected to your Mac laptop or computer. NeuralCam Live is easy to set up and use, although it’s only for those who have an iPhone or iPad, and it’s only for MacOS. The free version of EpocCam limits the resolution of your camera to 640 x 480, and the app launches with an advertisement if you upgrade to the paid version ($7.99), you can stream at resolutions up to 1080p, use pinch-to-zoom, use the iPhone’s flash as a light source, get HDR video, and more. You can only use either your rear or front camera on your iPhone. After launching the app on your notebook, you should see video from your phone’s camera on your computer. (You can use iPads, too.) Unfortunately, this app does not work with Android devices.Īfter the drivers have installed, the app on your iPhone will change to show an icon of your phone with some circles beaming out of it. You then need to download the EpocCam iPhone Webcam Viewer from the App store on your Mac or PC, and have both your phone and computer on the same Wi-Fi network. You can also connect your iPhone to your computer via USB. After downloading and installing the EpocCam Webcam app on your smartphone, you will be directed to go to to install the appropriate drivers on your Mac or PC.
