How to Make Apple Watch a Screen to Help Vlogging – Good news for you Apple Watch users. The problem is that the smartwatch can apparently be used as a monitor to take pictures or a viewfinder, instead of just taking pictures or as a remote camera.
Releasing The Verge on Wednesday (6/1/2022), that power was first expressed by the Twitter account @PeterSciretta. He said the Apple Watch was the most helpful device for video recording, especially for vlogging routines. You can keep the smartwatch on your arm or strap it to your iPhone.
So, you can do vlogging with the main camera without having to worry about whether your position is right. Just watch the monitor display on your Apple Watch to match your status.
The steps to make Apple Watch as iPhone viewfinder is not so difficult. On your Apple Watch, open the Remote Camera program. It will automatically open the camera program on your iPhone, and you can switch it to video mode, control it, and record.
Android users need not feel left out, as Wear OS devices can act as a camera viewfinder when connected to a Pixel phone. The Apple Watch trick will work with the popular video camera program FiLMiC Pro. That way, you can get all the benefits offered by the 3rd faction program, plus a remote display on your watch.
Of course, if you’re looking to make a new vlogging setup, this might not be the greatest step to do, especially if you don’t have an Apple Watch yet. For a cheaper price than the cheapest Apple Watch (Series 3), you can even get an Apple Lightning to HDMI adapter that lets you power your phone until it runs out of battery, and a small camera monitor.
