Free Online Webcam Test
See your live camera feed, check its resolution, take a snapshot.
Your video is shown locally and never uploaded.
Before a video call or a stream, make sure the right camera is picked and actually working: this shows a live preview, the resolution and frame rate it’s running at, and a snapshot button to test it end-to-end.
The video stream stays on your device: it’s displayed locally, never sent anywhere.
How to use it
- Click “Start camera” and allow access when your browser asks.
- Pick a different camera from the list if you have more than one.
- Take a snapshot to double-check it, then stop the camera when you’re done.
Frequently asked questions
Is my video sent anywhere?
No. It’s displayed directly in your browser using a local preview; nothing is uploaded or recorded unless you click “Take snapshot”, which just saves a picture to your own device.
Why don’t I see my camera name?
Browsers only reveal camera names after you’ve granted permission at least once. If it still shows something generic, check your browser or OS privacy settings.
The image is flipped — is that a problem?
No, that’s the “Mirror” option, on by default so the preview feels like a mirror (like most video-calling apps). Turn it off to see exactly what others will see.
Nothing happens when I click “Start camera”.
Check your browser didn’t block the permission request (look for a camera icon in the address bar), that no other app is currently using the camera, and that you’re on HTTPS (required for camera access).
