For MacOS, the most suitable app is the built-in "Photo Booth"
​Chrome OS: Our USB scopes can be used with the default Camera app that comes with Chrome. In the Camera app, you may need to select the ‘Switch Camera’ button next to the red ‘Capture’ button. Some Chrome machines with built-in cameras may need to have the device pointer changed. This can be done by going to Settings > Advanced Settings > Privacy > Content Settings > Camera, and change the device in the dropdown to “USB Microscope”
Linux: We have tested our USB scopes with many Linux distros utilizing either the Cheese app or GTK+ UVC Viewer. These can either be installed by searching by app name through the app store in your Linux distro (if available), or by using the following terminal commands:“sudo apt-get install guvcview” OR “sudo apt-get install cheese”
Android: Using the microscope on an Android device requires an OTG cable. We recommend the app CameraFi, available at: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vaultmicro.camerafi&hl=en
​
Please note that Android support is on a case-by-case basis. Device manufacturers must have support for USB Video Class devices built in or this will not work. You can find more information about compatible devices from CameraFi website.
Another way to connect an Android device to our USB borescopes is through Vividia W01, W02, or W03 AirBox wireless converter and free app . The app can be downloaded from Google Play Store and website www.apkpure.com.
​
iOS (iPhones and iPad): You can not directly connect Vividia USB scopes to a iPhone/iPad. You need our wireless converter and our app to use your iPhone/iPad with Vividia USB scopes. Here is more information about ​Vividia  W01, or W02 or W03 USB-to-WiFi conversion box AirBox wireless converter and free app. You can download the app from Apple's app store. ​
