- Microsoft is “gradually” rolling out a new feature for Windows Insiders.
- The new feature will allow you to use your Android phone as a webcam.
- The phone will need to be running Android 9.0 or newer and have the Link to Windows app with version 1.24012* or later.
Back in November, Android Authority reported that code within the Link to Windows app pointed to Microsoft working on a feature to turn Android phones into webcams. Now the tech giant is starting to roll the feature out.
In a blog post to Windows Insiders, Microsoft announced it is “gradually” launching a feature to allow Android tablets and phones to be used as webcams. The company says the feature enables Android devices to work wirelessly and can be used for any video application on Windows 11 PCs.
