CamMonitor: Live Viewfinder
Big-screen viewfinder over LAN
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Now in ten languages, and you can switch between them inside the app. The reference overlay is still here: lay a photo over the frame and match any pose.
See yourself the way the camera sees you.
Camera Monitor turns a second iPhone or iPad into a big live viewfinder for your iPhone camera. Put your phone on a tripod, walk into the frame, and watch yourself on the big screen — adjust your pose, framing and lighting without running back and forth.
HOW IT WORKS
• Open the app on two devices on the same Wi-Fi (or nearby — direct peer-to-peer works too)
• One device is the Camera, the other is the Monitor
• The live picture appears on the monitor in a fraction of a second
MADE FOR REAL SHOOTS
• Low-latency HEVC stream over your local network — no internet, no servers, no accounts
• Remote shutter: take photos right from the monitor
• Reference overlay: lay a photo over the frame and match a pose or a composition — move, zoom, rotate and mirror it, adjust opacity and contrast, or reduce it to outlines. It never appears in your photos
• Full-quality photos (HEIF up to 48 MP or Apple ProRAW where supported) saved to the camera device
• Real lens switching: 0.5x / 1x / 2x / telephoto buttons, exactly like the stock Camera
• Tap to focus, exposure adjustment, AE/AF lock
• Rule-of-thirds grid on both screens
• Several monitors can watch one camera at the same time
• Optional connection password — the stream stays yours
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Video never leaves your local network.
Perfect for solo creators, vloggers, dance and fitness videos, interviews, product shots, family portraits — any time the person in front of the camera wants to see the frame.
