Please be aware that the latest versions of the Windows Store Skype app (also known as “metro Skype”) may not detect Droid Cam at all. If your apps do not detect the app, the first thing you need to do is to restart your PC and try again. Before establishing a connection, you can select if you want to sync with both video and audio feed, which can enable you to use the client only as a video-only webcam or audio-only microphone.Īfter the connection is established (video feed will be showcased directly in the app), you are free to re-launch any of your favorite chat programs and see if they detect newly created “virtual” webcam hardware. The connection can be established wirelessly over a Wi-Fi LAN (by entering device IP and port), or via USB cable if your PC doesn’t have access to wireless hardware. The main interface of the app consists form one small window that features connectivity tools on the top and video processing effects on the bottom. After a brief and intuitive installation, you can start the application and establish a connection with your phone. Then, to finish the procedure, on your PC all you need to do is to install the latest version of DroidCam Client. First, on your phone, you need to install a free application called “ DroidCam Wireless Webcam” by Devs47Apps. To establish a connection between your Android phone camera and your PC, you will need to install two apps. As of today, the app can only compatible with Android smartphones. To better take advantage form your mobile phone hardware, customization options of the client include individual settings for video resolution (up to 720p HD), sound management, and even several video processing effects such as zoom, mirroring, rotating, brightness and more.

This makes it highly attractive to users who want to set up video chat sessions on their PC in mere seconds, enabling their favorite apps such as Yahoo! Messenger or Skype to instantly recognize wireless webcam hardware.
