EpocCam Wireless Webcam app review: an app to turn your device into a webcam-2020

Reviews

Introduction

Epoc Cam is a webcam app designed to turn your iPhone or iPad into a wireless computer webcam. The monitoring app is compatible with all kinds of applications like Skype, Google Hangouts, Facebook video calling, and more. You can also just watch the live video stream on your personal computer, making EpocCam a perfect iPhone webcam app or baby monitor.

With Epoc cam you can stream your online lecture, gameplay or vlog with wireless high definition webcam. Webcam app is a perfect tool for YouTubers, vloggers and game streamers. This app only takes about 5 MB of storage space but does need a little bit of setting up before it can be used.

Getting Started

After opening the app, a screen comes up with the instructions of installing the webcam. First you need to install the software on your personal computer. The available software drivers are available for Windows PC and Mac OS X, though for the latter only beta drivers were available.

Best iphone and ipad apps

After downloading and installing the drivers for your PC (these drivers are available freely on the Kinoni website), a notification will pop up on your PC, telling you the drivers are installed successfully and your device has been found by the PC. Be aware that to make this work, both PC and iPad need to be on the same wireless network.

Setting up an iphone webcam app is very simple, anyone can do it. With this monitoring app you can achieve the high quality real-time video streaming to computer - quality comparable to most expensive USB-webcams.

If you are not able to figure this really easy process out, there is even a setup video available, making the whole process even easier!

Options and Features

When you’re all set up and you’re ready to use the app, you can set a few preferences. You can flip the image, and choose to use the flash. You can also change which camera you want to use. This all has to be done in the app on your device, as the viewing software on your PC does not have any options. It is just a live feed of your device’s camera.

Within the app there is also a WiFi bar, showing how good the connection between the iDevice and the PC is. During your use, ads might pop up, but they’re never intrusive.  There is also a full version of the app available.

Conclusion

EpocCam Wireless Webcam does exactly what it should do. I can really recommend this to people who own an iPad or iPhone, but don’t want to invest in a security system, baby monitor, or separate webcam. The system is really easy to set up and doesn’t require anything else.

The paid version offers a few more extras but I’m not sure if it’s worth it. The software for your PC is really small but offers nothing in remote options. It’s literally just a viewer and drivers.
