How to Use Android Camera in Screen Studio

Many content creators want to use their Android phones as webcams when recording with Screen Studio. This makes sense, as modern Android phones come with high-quality cameras that often outperform standard webcams. While Screen Studio doesn’t directly support Android phones as webcams, you have several options to make this work.

Approach 1: Camo

Camo provides a reliable way to use your Android phone as a webcam. The software creates a bridge between your phone and computer, letting you access your phone’s camera quality during recordings.

To use Camo with Screen Studio:

1. Install Camo on both your phone and computer
2. Connect your devices through Camo
3. Select Camo as your camera source in Screen Studio
4. Start recording with your enhanced video quality

Approach 2: USB Connection

Recent Android phones offer a simpler solution through direct USB connection. This native feature turns your phone into a webcam without extra software.

For Google Pixel users, the process is straightforward:

1. Connect your Pixel to your computer with a USB cable
2. Pull down the notification shade on your phone
3. Tap the USB preferences notification
4. Select “Webcam” mode

Your Pixel will now function as a webcam in Screen Studio and other recording software.
