How do I use my iPhone an an external 2nd camera when using zoom?
iPhone 6s Plus, iOS 12
As long as you have the meeting ID, join the meeting with your phone. But the problem is, there will be two yous that will show on participants.
You can also try this one: https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/207599483-Screen-Share-a-Camera-Input using your phone.
I found this information on the Zoom Help Center about screen sharing a camera input. I am guessing you would need to connect your iPhone with the white charging cable to your computer first.

I hope this helps.
Even when I plug my iPhone into my MacBook, this doesn’t work. It doesn’t even recognize my phone as an option.
I have an extra 6s and I’d love to get it set up as the 2nd camera. I’m a teacher trying to switch over to online lessons on the fly.
Thanks Sally
I’ve tried a few apps that are supposed to make the iPhone work as an external camera, but none of them worked...
Patricia,
This kind of works, but as you mentioned the screen share function can be a double edged sword.
I’m a teacher trying to switch to online lessons and the kids quickly lose focus through screen share.
All the local stores are sold out of webcams so I’ll keep working on this.
Thanks!
I figured it out! It works perfectly :)
my students and I thank you for you help
Mike
