Phone as Webcam

Overview

Mobile Webcam for Chrome lets you use your smartphone camera as a webcam in supported websites and web apps. Phone cameras are often much better than built-in laptop webcams - so you can get a sharper image, better low-light quality, and more natural colors for calls, lessons, recordings, and demos. What you can do - Use your phone as a webcam in Chrome - Connect in seconds with QR-code pairing - Choose front or back camera (selfie camera or main camera) depending on your use case How to use - Install the extension in Chrome - In your meeting/website, choose Mobile Webcam as the camera source - Open the extension popup and connect your phone by scanning the QR code Real-world ways people use it - Better-looking meetings: upgrade your video quality for daily calls - Online teaching: place your phone above a desk to show handwriting, notes, or small objects - Product demos: use the back camera to show details up close (great for hardware, packaging, or prototypes) - Content recording: get a cleaner picture for talking-head videos without buying a new webcam - Work-from-anywhere setups: pack light and still have a high-quality camera Designed for local networks & privacy - This extension is intended to be used on local networks (home/office Wi-Fi). - We don’t send any video to our servers - We don’t provide relay servers, so your phone and computer must be directly reachable for the connection to work
