Apple calls it Continuity Camera – it’s a feature that allows users to set up an iPhone as a webcam on an iPad or Mac.
Belkin will manufacture clips for attaching an iPhone to the top of a computer – Belkin is one of the few brands other than Apple currently selling products in Apple’s online store.
Continuity Camera also works in tandem with Handoff, which allows users to transfer a FaceTime call from an iPhone to a Mac computer.
Apple gave a demonstration of the Continuity Camera at the Worldwide Developers Conference – Peta Pixel called the display “promising”.
TikTok has gotten wind of some of the new features rolling out with iOS 16 and the response is largely positive.
“Someone at Apple went to Hogwarts because their latest MacOS feature is black magic,” a TikToker said.
With the new software, “you’ll be able to do multi-cam webcam angles with your iPhone in the same position.”
The iPhone’s ultra-wide camera angle allows the user to set up Desk View – a birds’ eye angle of the user’s keyboard and hands.

Continuity Camera and Desk View can be run simultaneously in a split-screen mode for maximum effect.
Desk View opens up the possibilities for humanizing remote education and work by showing more of the speaker and how they operate.
In the remote-work-friendly age, employees need to be able to dial into a Zoom call from anywhere.
The latest iPhone’s 12-megapixel camera should make this a high-resolution experience so no grainy figures will be asking “can you see me?” through the screen.
