Scan a QR, select "Extroid Virtual Webcam" in your meeting app, and you're live. Works with Google Meet, Zoom, Teams, and any browser‑based video platform. Your video stays on your local network – no cloud storage, no driver installs, no app downloads. The mobile side is a web site (aka PWA), not a native app. Extroid monkey‑patches the browser camera API, so it appears as a real hardware device to every site. No special plugins, no admin rights.
Extroid monkey‑patches Chrome’s camera API so your phone appears as a real hardware webcam – no drivers, no cloud, no app installs. The mobile side is a link that opens a QR scanner in your browser (PWA). Signaling uses a hidden Google Drive folder that gets cleaned up automatically. Zero user data is stored.
I’m a solo dev who’s been building this for months. It’s stable, but still actively evolving – audio, iOS, and Firefox are on the roadmap. Try it, break it, tell me what's broken. I’ll be here.
Your phone is already a better webcam. Let’s put it to work 🚀

Who hunted Extroid?
Extroid was hunted by Alexandr Zhelonkin. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it.

Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
