Webcam diagnostics
Check actual resolution, live FPS and camera access before joining a call.
Find out if your camera works — and how you actually look on calls. Check FPS, sharpness, lighting and noise right in the browser.
CamMicGo helps you verify your setup before Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, Discord, interviews, webinars and streams. Tests run with browser-native media APIs so your live camera and microphone data does not need to be uploaded.
Check actual resolution, live FPS and camera access before joining a call.
Watch live microphone level in dBFS and confirm that your browser is receiving audio.
Turn technical measurements into a simple readiness score and actionable guidance.
A webcam can technically work and still look poor in a meeting. Use the live lighting, noise, sharpness and real FPS readings together: improve the room light first, check that the lens is clean and in focus, then use filters only for small visual adjustments. The comparison view is useful for checking natural versus mirrored framing or two camera setups without changing the rest of your workflow.
Allow Camera and Microphone in the site controls near the address bar, reload after changing permissions, and close apps such as Zoom, Teams or OBS if they are already using the device.
Open Settings for This Website, allow Camera and Microphone, and verify macOS or iOS privacy permissions if access remains blocked.
Allow camera access when the browser asks. CamMicGo displays the live feed locally in your browser and measures resolution, real FPS, lighting, image noise and sharpness without requiring a desktop app.
Visible grain is usually caused by low light. The camera raises gain to brighten the image, which also amplifies noise. Add soft light in front of you before increasing brightness with a filter.
Low light, thermal limits, browser load, camera drivers and the selected resolution can all reduce the frames actually delivered. The Real FPS card measures what reaches the browser rather than only showing the camera request.
Mirror view feels familiar because it behaves like a mirror, but natural view is closer to what other participants receive. Compare both if you want to check text, logos, gestures or framing before joining a call.
A good test should not stop at a score. Use these practical checks to understand what the browser measured, what can affect the result, and what to change before your next call, stream or gaming session.
The webcam test reports the video track exposed by your browser, including the negotiated resolution and live frame rate. CamMicGo also estimates scene brightness and image sharpness from small local video frames. These are practical diagnostic indicators, not laboratory camera measurements.
A stable 30 fps is normally sufficient for calls. 60 fps can look smoother when the camera, browser and lighting support it. A falling or unstable frame rate can come from low light, USB bandwidth, another app using the camera, browser load or power-saving settings.
The live video stays in the browser. Camera permissions and the exact settings visible to CamMicGo depend on the browser, operating system and camera driver. Some devices advertise modes that the browser does not ultimately negotiate.
