## Description

Turn your phone into a wireless webcam for Firefox (Meet, Zoom, more). Pair with a QR code or saved PIN - no cables needed.

Turn your Android or iPhone into a wireless webcam (and microphone) for any Chrome tab - Google Meet, Zoom Web, WhatsApp Web, and more.

No cables, no drivers, no app to install on your phone. Just open a link on your phone's browser and pair it with your computer using a QR code or a saved phone number + PIN.

HOW IT WORKS
- Pairing handshake goes through PeerJS's free public signaling service, just to help your phone and computer find each other.
- Once paired, video and audio stream directly, peer-to-peer, over WebRTC - never through any server.
- The extension adds "Phone Camera as WebCam" as its own selectable camera option in site camera pickers, alongside your other webcams.

FEATURES
- QR code / magic link pairing, or phone number + 6-digit PIN pairing
- Remembers your pairing until you choose to forget it
- Light / dark theme, matching your system by default
- Live mini preview of your phone's camera in the popup
- Automatic video orientation matching how you hold your phone
- Reliable front/back camera switching
