Connect via USB (Android)

For USB connections, you need to: (a) enable USB Debugging on the phone, (b) install drivers for your phone on the computer.

1. First, make sure “USB Debugging” is enabled on your phone. Its located in the phones Settings, under Developer Options.

On most phones the Developer Options screen is hidden by default. To unlock it, open the phones Settings and search for Build number (under About section). Tap Build Number seven times to unlock Developer options.

Once unlocked, search for USB Debugging (under Developer Options) and turn it On.

2. With USB Debugging turned on, connect your device to the computer via USB. Windows may find and install the appropriate drivers automatically.

In the DroidCam PC client, pick the USB connection option and click the refresh button. If the client detects your phone, you’ll likely get a dialog on the phone asking Allow USB Debugging. Tap OK to allow the connection. You can also skip the next step.

3. If the device is not detected, you need to install drivers for it as an additional step.

(1) On the phone, make sure the DroidCam app is open and ready.
(2) On the phone, pull down the notification area and open “USB Options”. Try picking the ‘PTP’ (Picture Transfer), or ‘Camera’, or just ‘Charging’ mode.

If the connection is still failing,
(1) If you skipped the driver installation (step 3) above, try installing the drivers for your phone manually. Sometimes Windows auto-installs incorrect or outdated ones.
(2) Try changing the ‘DroidCam Port’ setting in the app and on the client. Use 4848, 5050, 5151, …
(3) Try this alternate USB setup tool. The tool will detect and setup local port forwarding against all connected devices. If it works, you can replace the adb folder under Program Files x86 > DroidCam with the one in this download.

Both USB Tethering and WiFi Hotspot connections with your phone can work with DroidCam. Some phones also work with USB-C to Ethernet wired connections.

On iOS, for USB Tethering you can use standard USB connection option in the DroidCam client (see above).

On Android, you can find the IP address of the phone and enter that into the WiFi tab of the DroidCam client. The easiest way is to open the phones Settings, scroll down to “System” or “About”, and look for the Network section.

With both iOS and Android, also try these standard IPs:172.20.10.1, 10.0.0.1, 192.168.0.1.
Alternatively, on your PC open the Start menu and launch the Command Prompt program. Enter ipconfig and look for ‘router’ or ‘gateway’ address, and use that as the phone IP.

1. Use the “WiFi Server” option on the PC client. Click [Start] to wait for a connection.

3. Open DroidCamX on your phone, use the options menu (⋮) and choose “Connect to Server”. You will need the computers local IP address (usually 192.168…), look in your network settings or open a Command Prompt and type in ipconfig.
