Can I use my iphone as a webcam for my ipad pro?

I realize that the iPad has its own camera, so I could stream using that.


However, That’s not advantageous if I want to use the iPad as a guide for a stream’s conversation, and I want a good angle that comes from my iPhone sitting inside a ring-light in front of my desk.


Can anyone confirm if this feature is unavailable? Or maybe there is a respected application I can download similar to ivCam or EpocCam (which only work with the Mac OS, rather than iOS -> iPad OS).?


I would like to see a continuity camera feature that includes video, if none is currently available. The ipad angle I can achieve while using the keyboard (necessary for my task) is not conducive to a good livestream.


Thanks!

iPad Pro, iPadOS 13

iOS/iPadOS does not natively support external webcam or video input.


Apple do invite submission of comments and feature requests via their Product Feedback portal. For iPad and iPadOS:
