I’ve been trying to buy a webcam all week but it’s proving surprisingly difficult to find any of the reasonably priced, slightly sub-£80 ones in stock anywhere.

At the moment I’m using the Epocam HD app on my iPhone to run that as a webcam for my Mac Mini, and it works reasonably well as long as you don’t want to switch, for example, between cam and window broadcast in Facebook live. The app loses connection with the app it’s meant to be feeding and won’t reconnect without being quit and restarted on the phone.
