    I wish there were a true plug and play option that didn’t require installing a driver on a PC. Most larger companies have VPNs and strict guidelines that don’t allow the installation of software. I would love to do this with my spare iPhone, but I’m not allowed to install the software (large, publicly traded company).

    Maybe a dumb question, but doesn‘t this deplete the iPhone‘s battery during a long (maybe 2-hour Zoom call)? Or will it sufficiently charge off a Windows laptop?

    • @TyechiaBrown
      @TyechiaBrown 3 года назад +1

      I don’t think it’s a dumb question. The iPhone should sufficiently charge off the Windows laptop, even on a long zoom call, as long as it’s plugged into it. I use my iPhone a lot while plugged into windows computer. I hope this helps.

      The Mic gets detected automatically by the system recording (you just need to choose your preferred MIC/Webcam) and to avoid voice delay…turn off the WiFi mode on your phone and plug in the usb by enabling usb debugging….the video and your voice will go in sync 👍🏻

    • @scottbecker3485
      @scottbecker3485 3 года назад

      I suppose just putting it on night mode (silent) should be fine so you don‘t get bothered by alert sounds. Pop-downs theoretically shouldn‘t bother the set-up, either, since they simply appear on the (back-facing) display. The only issue I see is that sometimes, as a meeting host, I need to have my phone at the ready right before the meeting starts, and for the first few minutes, for folks who somehow can‘t get in and need assistance, or else want to inform me they won‘t be coming. Not being able to check What‘s App or whatever is a bit of a downside.

    • @chrisalexander2726
      @chrisalexander2726 3 года назад

      Incoming calls and texts have disconnected me. EpoCam won't let you keep it in Airplane mode (even if you're using a cable connection and not Wifi). 'Do not disturb' mode will work, I think, but I've found EpoCam randomly quits now and again anyway so I'm hesitant to use it for really important meetings.
