As part of its macOS 13 Ventura presentation at WWDC 2022, Apple today announced Continuity Camera, which gives Mac owners the ability to use their iPhone as a webcam.<\/p>\n


A Mac running \u200cmacOS 13\u200c can automatically recognize and use the camera on an \u200ciPhone\u200c when it is nearby, without the need to wake or select it, and the \u200ciPhone\u200c can also connect to the Mac wirelessly.<\/p>\n

Continuity Camera includes FaceTime features like Center Stage, Portrait mode, and a new Studio Light effect that illuminates a user’s face while dimming the background.<\/p>\n

In addition, Continuity Camera uses the Ultra Wide camera on an \u200ciPhone\u200c to enable Desk View, which simultaneously shows the user’s face and an overhead view of their desk, which is useful for creating DIY videos, showing off sketches over \u200cFaceTime\u200c, and more.<\/p>\n

Continuity Camera is available on \u200ciPhone\u200c XR or later models. Using Continuity Camera wirelessly requires a Mac and an \u200ciPhone\u200c or iPad with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth turned on, and both devices must be signed in to the same Apple ID with two-factor authentication.<\/p>\n

Continuity Camera with Center Stage and Desk View is available on iPhone 11 or later running iOS 16. Studio Light is available on iPhone 12 or later running \u200ciOS 16\u200c.<\/p>\n

For all the other details and new features in \u200cmacOS 13\u200c Ventura, see our dedicated article.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n
