If you have an Android phone and you've updated to Windows 11 update 24H2, you don't need a third-party app to use your phone as a webcam anymore.
The Windows 11 update 24H2 includes a new feature called Connected Camera that lets you turn your smartphone into a webcam. The folks at PCWorld have tested the feature out, and it looks pretty easy to use, though you do need to have an Android phone to use it.
Recommended Videos Now Windows has joined the club , giving us even more ways to ditch the grainy old laptop webcam for the fancy cameras we carry in our pockets. To try the feature out, you need a PC with Bluetooth running Windows 11 24H2 and a phone running Android 8.0 or later. Once your phone appears under the My devices menu on the Manage mobile devices page, you’ll see a toggle option called Use as a connected camera. Toggle it on and your phone should appear as a webcam device in any video call app like Zoom, Google Meet, and Microsoft Teams.
