Your phone as a webcam for Google Meet

Camora turns your Android phone into a webcam on your computer. Google Meet sees it as a normal camera called “Camora”, so you get your phone's much better camera in every call, with no plugins and nothing else to install.

Questions

Is Camora free to use with Google Meet?

Yes. Camora is free, with no ads, no watermark and no account: up to 1080p, and 60 fps if your phone supports it.

Does Google Meet need a plugin for Camora?

No. Camora adds a camera called “Camora” to your computer, and Google Meet lists it like any webcam.

USB or Wi-Fi?

USB has the lowest delay (about 150 ms from camera to screen on Windows) and charges the phone while it streams. Wi-Fi needs no cable: pair once with a 6-digit code and it reconnects by itself.

Does it work with an iPhone or a Mac?

Not yet. Camora needs an Android phone (8.0 or newer) and a Windows 11 or Ubuntu computer.

Turn your phone into your webcam

Camora is free: install it on your Android phone and on your Windows 11 or Ubuntu computer, and you're live in a few minutes.
