An Overview of CameraFI – USB Cmera/Webcam

Not everyone has the latest generation phones with updated cameras, so there are tons of people whose cameras on their phones and tablets aren’t all that great. So they may want to use their mobile devices for streaming or some activities with webcams, but the picture just isn’t great. This is where an app like CameraFI – USB Cmera/Webcam can help.

This app was released by Vault Micro, Inc for the Android mobile OS, and its basic purpose is to give your mobile device another way to record and-or stream video. You will essentially plug your camera into your device’s port, and this app will ensure that’s syncing you up with other apps, the same way your default camera would.

The Features of CameraFI – USB Cmera/Webcam

There aren’t a ton of features here, like effects and filters. It’s pretty much just an app that allows you to plug in an external camera. It will record whatever you’re filming, if you want it to. Just understand that this is going to require some storage space, and you’ll have wasted a recording if you don’t have the available space.

Another thing it allows you to do is stream right to other apps, like if you wanted to stream on YouTube or BitWave with a camera that gave you a picture of a higher quality. Though that’s pretty much all this app is going to do.
