Question 1

Is my webcam video or microphone audio uploaded?

Accepted Answer

No. The live camera and microphone streams stay in the browser. A photo or audio sample leaves the page only when you choose to download it.

Question 2

Can I test the camera and microphone separately?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can start or stop the camera and microphone independently, so one test can continue when the other device is unavailable or permission is denied.

Question 3

Why is my webcam preview black?

Accepted Answer

Check that the camera cover is open, the correct device is selected, another app is not using it, and the browser has camera permission. Then refresh the device list and try again.

Question 4

Can I take a picture or record audio?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The app can create a local PNG picture and, when the browser supports MediaRecorder, a short audio sample that you can download or clear.
