5/5Great 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.

5/5No way it’s this good?
If you’re new to streaming, don’t have a camera but you have a phone with a HD camera, get this app NOW! It’s free and easy to use and when I say easy…I MEAN EASY. Download this app on your phone and PC, make sure both devices are on the same network, make sure the Bluetooth is enabled on both devices and with a click of a button you have a camera for streaming. I started streaming a week and some change ago from when I made this comment and haven’t had any problems since. I just recommend putting your phone on DND so no calls come in while you’re using it as a camera but that’s honestly just a personal suggestion. If you have a spare phone that isn’t your primary, even better. I use my primary phone as my camera and put it on DND so it doesn’t interrupt the camera. Highly recommend, a legit 5 out of 5 🙌🏼

5/5Superior 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.

5/5Truly 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!!!

5/5Love 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.
