About USB Camera Server
Open the app, connect a compatible USB camera, scan the QR code or open the local URL, and view the feed instantly from another device on the same network. Designed for quick setup and minimal overhead, USB Camera Server is perfect for web apps, inspections, kiosks, labs, photo booths, demonstrations, and temporary monitoring.

Why choose USB Camera Server?
Most USB camera apps limit viewing to the Android device. USB Camera Server makes the camera available on your local network so other devices can open the feed in a browser or compatible HTTP/MJPEG viewer - fast, simple, and PC-free.
Important notes
- Requires a compatible USB/UVC camera and an Android device that supports USB OTG host mode
- Clients must be on the same Wi‑Fi or LAN to access the local stream
- Device hardware and Android version may affect performance and supported resolutions
- Current builds serve MJPEG over HTTP (open http://:8080/stream)

Very responsive and helpful developers - and the software helps me exactly with what I wanted - generate/render local http streaming URL to grab live video streaming off an externally connected set of UVC-compliant USB camera glasses
