So, you can use your best cameras for video conferencing is a great move.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"438\" src=\"https:\/\/techtippr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Continuity-Camera.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15277\" srcset=\"https:\/\/techtippr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Continuity-Camera.jpg 700w, https:\/\/techtippr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Continuity-Camera-696x435.jpg 696w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to use the continuity camera feature?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Here are a few things required to use Continuity Camera on Mac.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Your Mac must be running macOS Monterey or later.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Your iPhone must be running iOS 15 or later.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Both devices must be signed in to the same Apple ID using two-factor authentication.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Continuity Camera must be turned on in Settings &gt; General &gt; AirPlay &amp; Handoff on both devices.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Your iPhone and Mac must be near each other and have Bluetooth and Wi-Fi turned on.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Your iPhone must not be sharing its cellular connection and your Mac must not be sharing its internet connection.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>To use Continuity Camera&nbsp;over USB, your iPhone must be set to trust your Mac.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Here are some additional things to keep in mind<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Continuity Camera is not supported on all Mac models. For a list of supported models, see the Apple Support article Continuity Camera system requirements.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Continuity Camera may not work if your iPhone or Mac is in Low Power Mode.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you are having trouble using Continuity Camera, try restarting your devices.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Start using Continuity Camera<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s all done wirelessly, and no cable is required. Although you can do it using a cable also. It would also charge your iPhone, which is recommended if you are planning to have longer video sessions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I tried it with Google Meet, Zoom, WhatsApp, and Quick Time Player, and it was flawlessly. I did not notice any latency in the video, even though it was a wireless connection. The wireless\u00a0connection also means you have the flexibility of keeping the camera at a much better angle without just a laptop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Key Features of Continuity Camera<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Center Stage:<\/strong>&nbsp;This feature automatically keeps you in the frame as you move around during a video call.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Portrait mode:<\/strong>&nbsp;This feature blurs the background behind you to create a more professional look.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Studio Light:<\/strong>&nbsp;This feature uses the TrueDepth camera on your iPhone to light your face more evenly and reduce shadows.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Desk View:<\/strong>&nbsp;This feature lets you share a top-down view of your workspace during a video call.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>High-quality video:<\/strong>&nbsp;Continuity Camera can output video at up to 1920 x 1440 resolution and 60 frames per second.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Wireless or wired:<\/strong>&nbsp;You can use Continuity Camera wirelessly or wired.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>While showcasing the Continuity Camera features, Apple also showed that it would support Center Stage. It is a feature available in newer iPads and MacBooks, which keeps the subjects in the center even if they are using them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Portrait mode\u00a0is useful in scenarios where you have to attend at meeting and the background is messy. You can\u00a0enable the portrait mode which will blur the background making it free. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The desk view is kind of mind-blowing, is that users will also be able to use the wide-angle camera on iPhone to show a top-down view of their desk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This one was unavailable for me to test as I am using the beta version of macOS 13. It will be coming to the stable version when it releases.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apple&#8217;s new feature of the Mac Operating System will make your iPhone more usable as it allows you to use it as a webcam.
