Description
The Apple Design Awards Finalist 2023 app, Camo, uses the incredible cameras in your iPhone to produce pro-quality video, whether you’re meeting, streaming, or recording.
Joanna Stern, The Wall St. Journal – “how I do all my live TV hits”
MacWorld US – “full-featured, easy-to-use, and delightful”
9to5Mac – “an easy way to seriously improve your video call quality”
WIRED – “there are a number of apps which let you use your iOS device’s camera as your webcam, but the best one is Camo”
MacWorld UK – “an easy way to beef up the video quality on your calls”
With over 10 million users helped over the last decade, Reincubate is one of the UK’s most-loved software companies.
— EASY TO USE / PLUG AND PLAY / Wi-Fi —
No extra hardware needed, just connect your device to your Mac or PC. Choose between connecting wirelessly, for the most flexible experience, or opt for a trusty USB connection. With Wi-Fi connectivity, get set up for a call in seconds – no more looking around for a spare cable or a free port.
— POWERFUL ADJUSTMENTS & FILTERS —
Camo Studio gives you full control of your video, letting you adjust lenses, exposure, colours, contrast, and more; and it lets you zoom, crop, and focus your image precisely how you want it. Apply cinematic styling and color grading to your video with 18 bespoke filters, including support for custom Cube, 3DL, and LUT files.
— STAND OUT WITH SPOTLIGHT & PORTRAIT —
Use Spotlight to compensate for less-than-ideal lighting conditions, such as backlit or under-lit environments, by brightening yourself against your background. Portrait creates a sophisticated bokeh effect that cleanly separates you from the background and gives you full control over the depth of focus.
— VIRTUAL GREEN SCREEN AND PRIVACY —
Use Replace, Camo’s virtual green screen, to cleanly swap any image into your background. Or activate Privacy to cloak your surroundings with a pleasing diffused image effect. Both offer industry-leading performance, enabling video that foregrounds clarity without sacrificing appearance.
— FIND FREEDOM WITH AUTO FRAMING —
Camo’s auto-framing functionality keeps you at the center of the action, whether you’re shuffling around at your desk or presenting at a whiteboard. With a range of zoom options, you’ll remain firmly centered and proportioned on screen.
— COMPATIBLE WITH OVER 40 APPS —
Camo works perfectly with Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Safari, FaceTime, QuickTime, Chrome, OBS Studio, Streamlabs, Skype, Twitch, Panopto, ScreenFlow, Final Cut Pro X, and dozens of other video recording and streaming products.
— SECURITY AND PRIVACY FIRST —
Camo doesn’t know what you’re using it for, and doesn’t capture or transmit your video feed. It simply routes it from your iPhone to your computer. Your data is your business, not ours.
— NOT ONLY BUT ALSO! —
- Super low latency, high speed video with a range of resolutions
- Powerful presets to save and quickly switch to your favourite adjustments and settings
- Native support for iPadOS as well as your iPhone, and beautiful Dark Mode support throughout
- Camo offloads all processing to your iOS device, keeping your computer cool and fast
- Crop your video without losing quality with dynamic-resolution Smart Zoom
- Automatic image stabilisation minimises bumps and vibrations
- Virtually rotate your video without touching your device
- Switch between video from multiple iOS devices and lenses in real-time
- No ads in the app, not ever
— WE’RE HERE TO HELP —
We’re fanatical about supporting users, and we’d love to help you make the most of Camo. Reach out to us any time: [email protected]
Camo Studio supports macOS 10.13 or later & Windows 10 or later.

playallthenotes,
Great for online teaching
My monitor doesn't have a web came or a microphone and Camo let's me use my camera and its mic and it looks great and sounds great. Aside from using my iPhone 11 and mic the zoom feature is incredible. I teach guitar and other instruments through zoom and the ability so quickly zoom in super close on my fingers is a gigantic help! I don't use any other Camo features. It's nice to have color correction and all those other doo dads but I never use them. I have nice lighting in my studio so I never have to worry about that.
I give it 5 starts because it really is fantastic for me I just can't stand the subscription model of software. Sure, I could buy the lifetime use but, too me it's too much money for what the software does. I have other really sophisticated software I use that I paid less money for and I've been using those for years (with updates). Even $5 a month is steep to me but I make money using it so it makes sense.

OldSoul-ja,
Truly Fantastic!
I searched high and low for "the best" webcam when starting a new remote job this year. I have also tried many different brands over the years and simply never found one that excited me with the quality and features. Once started at my new job, they internally recommended Camo, which I had never heard of. I tried out the free version first and very quickly (and excitedly) paid for premium. I already had the best possible camera in my pocket, and now I could easily use it for all my web calls! The finetuning capabilities make this my absolute favorite option now, and I don't have to carry any additional cameras or cords when I travel, than the phone and cord I already have on every trip to begin with. Thanks for making such a great app, Camo Team!!!

Superior web cam
I compared this to epocam which is used with the elgato family of products and vcam. Reincubate is superior. It has a very natural looking depth of field background blur whereas the other two pixelated the area around the portrait.
It has only one downside, which was still not enough to knock it down a star, which is that it requires a wired connection from your phone to your Mac or pc. Not an issue if you’re using as a webcam or to feed in video to obs or streaming. It might be an issue for those trying to do mobile filmmaking. But then you’re probably not looking for webcam software.
I recommend the developer work on a wireless option which will allow the phone to be used further from the computer which opens up a wider range of film angles.

Brand Animal,
Love It!
I was using the logic Pro 922C camera and a light ring for meetings. I struggled with mounting the camera to a 38-inch screen. Also, the mic would always create an echo during the meeting so I had to change to iPods. And even with the ring light it was always dark. In one meeting I noticed the Camo icon on a screen. The image was high res, bright and the sound was great. I researched Camo and immediately purchased it for my new iPhone 14 Pro. Now my image is sharpo, bright and the audio is problem free. Camo has far exceeded my expectations and has deleived a fantastic user experience.
The only negative I can think of would be that I would like more /- zoom control when using the front facing camera. I have to use it because my stand is magnetic. And it only offers 1:1 ratio.

The only way I've *really* been able to use my iPhone as a webcam
There are a ton of apps that allow you to use your phone as a webcam: Epoc, Iriun, etc. and I've tried several. My issues with those were that the video was choppy, they were slow to connect, the lighting was bad, they didn't connect with Zoom, the desktop client was ugly or hard to wrangle and other frustrating things that ultimately left me to go back to my Macbook's built in camera. Then, I found this app. It actually works well, finally! The video is crisp, it connect via USB so the connection is instant and stable, the settings are straightforward and well-designed, it works flawlessly with Zoom and everything else I care about. Exactly what I was looking for
ArifImam,
Content creators need this app.
In addition to the many apps available for turning your smartphone into a webcam and using it with OBS, Zoom, or any other software, I was interested in finding an app that has no delay and creates a sort of depth of field effect to my videos. That's why I bought a 13 Pro Max iPhone recently. I tried my old iPhone XR with this app and got surprised when I saw the "Basic Portrait and Portrait Mods; I wish I had known about this before I purchased my new phone. I am not using other image adjustments in the app, as I am using the app in conjunction with OBS Studio and doing all my color grading and correction within OBS. This app is a must-have tool for those looking for that kind of usage, and it does not break the bank. I recommend it.

TRULY IMPRESSED WITH THIS APP!!!
Truly impressed with how this works with your older (iPhone X) or new mobile phones. I was actually about to sell my iPnone X when I cam accross this app. The biggest selling point was your mobile phone has pretty much all the color and lighting correcting features anyway, so you don't really have to mess around with anything, like you have to using a Logitech 920 or BRIO. Just plug in your iPhone and turn on the Mac and iPhone app and it just works. Cool thing is you have the option to custom correct all your Lighting Adjustments (Exposure, White Balance, Flash and Levels) and Image Adjustments (Brightness, Hue, Saturation, Contrast, Gamma and Sharpness). Not that it needs it, but it does it all. Again, AMAZING APP! Hope this will last for years to come! Thank you!

The definitive webcam app
You know how every now and then you’ll see a Zoom square that looks much better than everyone else’s camera? That’s what you can get with Camo.
I’ve tried a few others, but Camo stands out for high quality and high configurability. My favorite adjustment is white balance temperature -- it makes your room’s color tone look “cooler” or “warmer”, a big improvement over the default camera settings. Combined with higher resolution (compared to everyone else’s webcams), it makes my presentations look professional. I also appreciate the ability to crop the camera image, especially when I’m working from a messy office or a distracting public area. Just tons of useful and well-thought-out features.

Monk with Family,
Truly enjoying my fantastic iphone 12 camera with no delay!
My iphone 12 pro max is now my internet camera - it is also my recording camera for other things and Camo has made it all possible!
There is no perceptible delay on my computer screen so using the Awesome camera's on the back of my phone is zero problem. The clarity and function is way beyond a Logitec Brio.
This has ended my search for a great streaming experience, a great camera.
This experience is every bit as good as advertized!
The only thing left will be figuring out the best holders for the phone and positioning - but it is easy to be motivated to buy those when you see how vast the improvement is. And the solutions are often super cheap and simple.

PSiMac,
Gets the job done and it does it well!
The thought came about, "hey, this old iPhone 6s that is otherwise useless with its bad battery would make a great web cam because the camera is better than my MacBook, and the microphone is really good. How would I do this?" After trying a few other apps I ended up with Camo and I'm super happy. The free version functions well but if you get the Pro version, it opens up even more opportunities. My old 6s lives on as a great webcam and thankfully Camo supports this old device, unlike some of their competitors. I absolutely love it and highly recommend. I want to add that I bought a few webcams and found that unless you spend big dollars you wont get one as good as an old iPhone.
