Continuity Camera on mac/iphone

[gerardo_aguilar]

Hey all, just wanted to see if anyone had advice on how to use the new iPhone feature called Continuity Camera (https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT213244) on mac devices that don't have cameras. I am trying to use the continuity camera feature on zoom with my mac mini. I have the desktop version on my mac and the app on my iPhone. Both have the latest Apple/Zoom software. So my Mac would run zoom while My iPhone would serve as the camera.

Your iPhone must have Continuity Camera turned on in Settings > General > AirPlay & Handoff. It's turned on by default. Your iPhone and Mac must be near each other and have Bluetooth and Wi-Fi turned on. Your iPhone must not be sharing its cellular connection and your Mac must not be sharing its internet connection.

In my case not really sure why but if you run facetime first and if the iphone recognized from mac then you can use with Zoom. Trying to figure out the way to without using face time
