How to use Android as a Mac webcam

Yes, you can use Android as a Mac webcam

LinkMyMac turns your Android phone into a webcam source for Mac. That makes it a practical option when you want better camera quality or more flexibility than your built-in Mac camera.

Set up the camera once, then select it inside your video app

Install LinkMyMac on Android and LinkMyDroid on Mac, pair the devices, complete the webcam setup, then select LinkMyDroid Camera inside your video app on Mac.

Once the webcam workflow is ready, the camera can start when you choose it as your active source in the app you are using.

Zoom, Teams, Google Meet, FaceTime, and more

LinkMyDroid Camera is designed to work with Mac apps that let you choose a camera source. That includes Zoom, Teams, Google Meet, FaceTime, and other video apps that support camera selection.

Switch front and back camera from the Mac menu bar

The webcam workflow includes camera switching controls on Mac, so you can move between the front and back camera without reaching for a separate setup each time.

A better camera option for calls, meetings, and content

Many people searching for an Android webcam for Mac want better video quality, more flexible camera placement, or a simple way to reuse the phone camera they already trust.

LinkMyMac focuses on that direct Android-to-Mac workflow without making you stitch together multiple separate tools.

Build the rest of your Android-to-Mac setup

LinkMyMac also covers notifications, messages, file transfer, clipboard sync, and more.

Read Android notifications on Mac, Android messages on Mac, and Android to Mac file transfer if you want a broader desktop workflow too.

Install the apps and complete the webcam setup

Install LinkMyMac on Android and LinkMyDroid on Mac from the links on the homepage. If setup does not behave as expected, use the support page or email support@linkmymac.com.
