App suggestion to turn phones into webcams during quarantine

2 points by dirtyid 7y ago

Can anyone recommend apps that repuporse phones into webcams? Looks like webcams are selling out, sold out or reselling at inflated prices, and no one should be craiglisting and meeting strangers in real-life right now.

I use the free version of Alfred. Works great on Android, I have no experience with it on iOS.

  Cheers, but looks like this turns phones into CCTV cameras. I'm looking for something that turns an old android phone into a Windows10 webcam either wirelessly or via adb.

    Ah, I misunderstood.

Iriun (https://iriun.com/ https://iriun.com/) works well for me on OS X with a Xiaomi Mi A2 lite running Android 9. There's also versions of the required drivers for Windows and Linux available. Used it with Skype for Business and Blackboard Collaborate Ultra so far.
