Turn your iPhone into your webcam with this Apple feature

Apple

One of the new features Apple introduced at WWDC 2022 turns your iPhone camera into your MacBook's webcam. This Continuity Camera feature is coming to macOS Ventura, the upcoming macOS update. Apple is working with Belkin to create mounts allowing you to clip your iPhone at the top of your MacBook. It's not the most elegant solution, but this means you get better video call quality on your next FaceTime, Zoom, WebEx, or Microsoft Teams calls.

Another way this feature can be used is through a table view, where you can angle your iPhone to shoot a surface. This will come in handy when you want to demonstrate something. We aren't sure how this will work, but we're excited to see it in action. Apple plans to release the Continuity Camera feature later this year, with existing devices expected to support this through a software update.
