About Webcam Test

Before an interview or video call, a fast camera check confirms you're framed, lit, and that the right webcam is active — no more discovering a black screen when the meeting starts. This tool requests camera permission and shows a live preview of exactly what Zoom, Meet, or Teams would see.

A black or frozen preview is almost always a permission or device problem. Allow access when prompted; if you blocked it, use the padlock or camera icon in the address bar to re-enable, and if you have more than one camera, switch to the correct one. Closing other apps that might be holding the camera often frees it up.

The preview is live-only: the tool never records, stores, or uploads video. Your camera feed is shown back to you and nothing else — it stays entirely on your device.
