Note: When using the Continuity Camera/iPhone camera as a webcam, the maximum achievable resolution is limited by the Continuity system. Even if your camera supports 4K, it will not exceed 1080p when used as a webcam through Continuity Camera. The highest supported resolution is 1080p, but if system resources (such as memory or Wi-Fi bandwidth) are limited, it may automatically fall back to 720p.

On Windows

Click on the app icon, choose Record or Gif, and navigate to Screen and Cam or Cam Only to record yourself.
