iPhone app that will allow control of camera from my computer?

[richardsonjim]

I want to stream the iPhone camera to my iMac. Are there any apps that will do this. Can I control my camera from my iMac?

Is there a streaming way to do it.?

I want to see on my big screen what he camera is seeing. It is for revising an art arrangement. The camera (on phone) would be mounted on ceiling looking down onto the artwork on a table. I rearrange the art and want the picture to display on my computer screen. It makes it easier to refine the design when the image is vertical rather than flat on a table. I can't get far enough away from it to really see it as it will be viewed when complete on a wall . Can I trip the shutter from the computer? Any ideas would help.

There must be, since the Apple Watch can do this with an iPhone camera.

Airplay mirroring works to have my computer display my iPhone picture. Still can't control camera from computer but this did the job for what I needed now. I got another app that allowed me to rotate the display so I could look at what the iPhone saw in any orientation. It is called SwitchResX. Free trial.

Not sure if this will be of any help, but I received a "Tech-1 remote shutter" for Christmas. It is a bluetooth device meant to work on smartphonesvand tablet. It is designed to be used with "selfie" sticks. Looks and feels more like a dollar store item but it works good
