Revision history [back]

There is a beautiful android app droidcam together with open source PC client (for Windows, Linux and Mac). It allows user to use smart-phone as external web-camera for PC or an IP Cam (connection types to PC were WiFi and USB (via adb) ).

It is still possible to use Droidcam apk from aptoide, but there are some troubles:

1. Droidcam doesn't work with display turned off. So you should always turn your display on, so your battery will be eating more. Heating also isn't decreasing :(
2. Droidcam PC application crashes all the time using Droidcam apk with Jolla. No more than 2-5 minutes working and then crash.
3. It's always good to have native app for such purposes.
