Bergen, Norway and San Antonio, Texas—2nd April 2020—Keeping in touch with friends, family and workmates remotely just got a whole lot better with specialized video software from NDI®, part of the Vizrt Group. With many countries in lockdown, never has demand for live video streaming been higher. However, this requires certain essential tools, one being a high-quality webcam.
Now, in a move that typifies the ‘we’re all in this together, and we will beat this virus’ mindset, NDI has today announced that it will immediately make available its new NDI®|HX Capture for iOS and its existing NDI®|HX Camera for iOS applications free of charge for the next 60 days. Both apps are available for download from the Apple iOS App Store and normally retail at $10 and $20 respectively.

For everybody else, the app turns their iPhones into webcams that will work with popular applications like MS Teams, Skype, Zoom and many more. With quality webcams in extremely short supply right now, this app will allow everybody with an iPhone to take part in the ‘new normal’ of remote working and look good while doing it.
