Personally paid for Niagara launcher as I find that to be the far superior launcher to any other I've tried. My second one is Symfonium, the most feature rich and well developed audio player.

What are yours?

Android has webcam support in USB mode and has for like 3 versions now, though?

When it asks you what you want your device to do when plugged into a PC you get options like "file transfer (ftp)”, webcam should be on the bottom

Works flawlessly for me in both Linux and Windows for OBS

To be fair, I bought the app years ago when that wasn't a thing. But I also don't see webcam as an available option when plugging it into my PC. I have a carrier branded Pixel 8 rn, so it might not have everything a regular stock android would. :/

I can actually just use some FOSS thing I found on GitHub to basically remote access my phone now via ADB, which is also handy in VR as I can use a VR version of it without taking off the headset.
