Breaking news doesn't wait for field crews to fight through traffic.
By the time traditional teams arrive on scene, critical coverage windows have often closed. Newsrooms typically lose valuable time sifting through unverified social feeds and chasing down licensing permissions. CamRequest turns this into an on-demand dispatch process.

My gift to you
- Details
Once upon a time, the seed for CamRequest was planted. Back then, it was just a vision of what real-time, scalable media streaming could be—long before the technology even existed to fully back it up. The idea lived in notebooks, in late-night technical daydreams and in a distinctive, retro logo that captured the exact aesthetic of that era.
For years, it stayed on the horizon. But a great idea doesn’t just disappear; it waits for its moment.
Real-Time In-Stream Chat is Here

Talk, Direct, and Connect with Zero Delay.
Direct peer-to-peer messaging makes live streaming truly interactive across the CamRequest Android app and web platform.
Watching a live perspective in real time is powerful, but communicating with the person behind the lens makes it extraordinary. Today, we are rolling out In-Stream Live Chat across CamRequest, bringing instant, two-way text communication directly inside every active video session.
Whether you are requesting a specific viewpoint across town, asking a streamer to zoom in on a landmark or coordinating during a 1-on-1 private session, you can now chat seamlessly with ultra-low latency.
We're coming for you! (Literally)

Hide your tech, hide your screens, because the ultimate video app has escaped from Android Studio!
For a while now, thousands of lines of code have been trapped inside a dark computer screen, surviving only on pure caffeine and internal compiler errors. But the wait is over. CamRequest did break free and wants to be heading straight for your Android phone! The features are locked and loaded and your battery is already sweating in anticipation. So, get your phone ready! CamRequest is coming for it.
Automatic Face Blurring for Minors in CamRequest
- Details
Real-time protection ensures minors are shielded during live public broadcasts.
Live streaming in public spaces connects people with real-world events as they unfold, but safeguarding privacy—especially for children—remains our highest priority. We are introducing Automatic Face Blurring for Minors in the CamRequest Android app.
This privacy-first feature automatically detects and blurs the faces of children in real time before the video feed ever reaches viewers, giving broadcasters and viewers peace of mind while exploring public spaces.
Introducing Private CamRequest
- Details
Instant 1-on-1 streaming, right from the browser. Share a live viewpoint with anyone via a simple link from our app—no app download required for the receiving party.
We are excited to announce a major expansion, for Premium Users, Subscribers and Enterprises, to how you connect and share real-time visual feeds: Private CamRequest. You will no longer need both parties to have our Android app pre-installed to initiate or view a live stream. With Private CamRequest, you can generate a direct invite link and request a camera perspective from anyone, anywhere, from any device—instantly through their web browser.

Intelligent Eyewear coming for CamRequest
- Details
Google's latest Android XR / AI Smart Glasses platform is designed to extend phone-based apps to smart glasses. Because CamRequest relies on real-time camera capture, location tracking, and low-latency WebRTC streaming, integrating with Android-powered smart glasses is viable and fits the hands-free, first-person streaming use case well.
Experience the world through someone else’s eyes—literally. We are actively expanding CamRequest to support the next generation of smart eyewear, bringing true first-person live streaming to both Android XR (Google / Samsung) and Ray-Ban Meta devices.
Reality, cast to the world :)
See What They See. Fully Hands-Free.
Whether you are requesting a live look at a busy city square, verifying a remote location, or simply exploring a new neighborhood across the globe, smart glasses take CamRequest to the next level:
Live Dashboard
- Details
It was a familiar frustration for anyone managing live video feeds: hunting through nested menus, refreshing pages to see updated viewer counts, and cross-referencing locations on separate screens. Managing real-time media often felt surprisingly disconnected.
The new CamRequest Live Dashboard changes that dynamic entirely, transforming scattered stream data into a cohesive, real-time command center built for speed and context.
