## Description

The Camera Endoscope | USB extension allows you to connect various external cameras, such as USB endoscopes, borescopes, or inspection cameras, directly to your Android phone via USB OTG technology. Ideal for plumbing inspections, blocked drain checks, and general sewer inspections, this app reads and displays live video feeds from compatible UVC USB cameras. It requires USB OTG support and access to the microphone for video recording with sound, plus gallery permissions to handle photos and videos.

Using the app is simple: connect your USB endoscope to the phone, launch the extension, and tap the camera icon to start viewing. This tool replaces the need for expensive plumbing repair cameras, offering a practical and portable solution for home and professional use. Whether for drain inspections or other detailed visual checks, this extension provides clear imaging directly from your connected device.
