Simple Camera App is a focused camera viewer for Linux. It discovers built-in, USB, virtual and other V4L2 cameras, shows the resolutions and frame rates each device reports, and opens a clean live preview without adding a recording or editing workflow.
Use it to:
The free version lets you use any one camera at a time at its default resolution and frame rate. The optional, one-time Simple Camera Pro upgrade unlocks multiple simultaneous camera windows and selection of any available resolution and frame rate.
Camera feeds stay on your Linux desktop. The app does not record or upload
video and does not require an account, analytics or a background service. The
installed command is simple-camera-app.
