"I found WebCamera to be a useful app and plan to use it a lot in the future as a second camera for TUAW TV Live." --TUAW
Mobiola WebCamera is a great way to share what cannot be recorded with a built-in laptop camera, as it is wireless and can be easily moved around. Imagine sitting near the Eiffel Tower, and sharing this magic moment with your friend while giving a virtual tour of this famous landmark. With WebCamera, anything can be shared wirelessly in a simple and fun way.
WebCamera works with various messaging applications, just like a regular USB webcam. It also works with video production software such as Boinx TV, CamTwist, and Camtasia.
WebCamera captures video in three different resolutions: 192x144, 480x360, and 640х480. You may capture either individual frames or the whole video stream.
With the free WebCamera desktop application installed on a computer, WebCamera is plug-and-play ready.

Ratings and Reviews
Complete piece of crap
Downloaded this on phone and pc last week. Worked ok for first day. Have just tried to run it again and, although I have it open on both phone and pc and both are on same wifi, they will not connect. Pc does not recognise the phone and the phone comes up with message telling me the app is not running on the pc. Tried the manual connection they suggest in FAQ, no good either. So I have just tried to put in an online support request only to find their support request form page will not let you type into the boxes. It's unsupported crap, avoid it like the plague.
Belting
This is a fantastic app. Blew me away. I was a little dubious before I download it but works fantastically well. Far better than expected. This is a very well put together application.
There are a few additions I would like though:
(sound):
I know I could buy the additional app but an "all in one" would just sell like crazy. Combine your apps PLEASE!
I know it states on the app description that sound is coming soon. FINGERS CROSSED it arrives soon - before the would be just fantastic.
Screen Rotation:
I use an holder and rotation would come in handy. Please integrate the gyro sensor API.
Anyone considering downloading this app; don't consider; just do it; it's on the cheap at the moment too.
I have one small reservation is that using the back on full resolution is very twitchy and I'm on a rapid network too. But on medium resolution it's just BLOW AWAY (no I don't work at Apple)!
Can't wait to get out and about using this app.
Yes I have given this app 5 's; it would be 10 if these small additions were to be added.
Is that I hear coming just round the corner?
For the developers: here is an early christmas present from me:
Nearly forgot: with the please make it work with the in built and and not just with the .
Better than my web cam
Not had any problems, tested it live side by side same time using built cam on my laptop , and was surprised it performed better in low light ,image was crisper ,tried it in front & rear cam and it still performed ok. Tried it USB charger lead and it worked also The fact your iPhone can be moved around it doesn't have limitations of what you can stream, but has to be linked to your wifi . We all know iphone has a quality cam so not sure why other user say poor quality must be their wifi or computer mem . It has similar features such as capture cam or record mode. only negative it won't auto connect you have to enter the IP address of your wifi manually each time
