Use your phone as a webcam on Ome.tv

OME Link turns your own phone into your Ome.tv camera, and its microphone too if you want it. The extension shows a code, the phone scans it and opens a page in its own browser, so nothing is installed on the phone. It is free on every account.

Where the video goes

OME Link and OME Party send video and sound over WebRTC, straight from the phone or the friend to the member’s computer. When the two cannot reach each other directly, the stream passes through our relay server, which forwards encrypted media it cannot decrypt and does not store. Nothing is recorded, and the party picture is put together on the member’s own computer.
