Use a second phone as camera remote: live view, zoom, video over Wi-Fi/Bluetooth
Camera remote for your phone: Tag Team turns a second smartphone into a remote shutter with live view – over Wi-Fi or Bluetooth.
Put one phone on a tripod and hold the other. You see exactly what the camera sees, frame the shot and take the picture without running back. Perfect for group photos, selfies from a distance, family pictures, vlogs and social media videos, wildlife and anything shot from a tripod.
HOW IT WORKS
• Open Tag Team on both phones
• Pick "Use as camera" on one and "Use as remote" on the other
• Done – the phones find each other on their own, over Wi-Fi or Bluetooth
One app for both roles: no separate sender and receiver app, no account, no sign-up.
WI-FI OR BLUETOOTH
Tag Team connects over your Wi-Fi, over a hotspot from one of the phones, or over Bluetooth. Both run at the same time – if one drops, the other carries on. So the remote shutter also works outdoors, where there is no Wi-Fi.
WHAT YOU CAN CONTROL
• Shutter for photo and video
• Real-time live view from the camera phone
• Video in Full HD or 4K, where the camera supports it
• Zoom, ultra wide and telephoto
• Switch between front and back camera
• Flash and continuous light
• Self-timer with 3, 5 or 10 seconds
• Tap to focus, right in the live view
• Battery level and free storage of the camera phone at a glance
PRO MODES (Tag Team Pro)
• Night mode for low light
• Long exposure for light trails, waterfalls and night shots
• HDR and portrait mode
• Burst shooting
• Interval shooting for time-lapse
• Trigger up to four cameras at once for multi-angle shots
Which modes are available depends on the camera phone. Tag Team asks the device and only shows what it can really do.
YOUR SHOTS STAY YOURS
The two phones talk to each other directly. No server, no upload, no account. Photos and videos land in the camera phone's gallery and nowhere else. A connection is only made once you confirm it on the camera phone.
FREE OR PRO
Tag Team is free and ad-supported. Remote shutter, live view, video, zoom, wide angle and Bluetooth are all fully included – nothing is held back. The one-time Tag Team Pro purchase removes the ads and adds the pro modes. No subscription.
GOOD TO KNOW
• For Wi-Fi, both phones need to be on the same network; a hotspot from one of them works too.
• For Bluetooth, pair the phones once – the app helps you with it.
• If your network blocks device discovery, you can type in the IP address shown on the camera phone.
• Android only allows camera access while the app is visible, so the camera phone's screen stays on during a session.
