Stream Live Video from your iPhone Camera with Qik
By Aaron Besson at 14 August, 2008, 7:59 am
I came across another great app for the iPhone today called Qik that can be found on your jail broken iPhone via Cydia. It allows you to use you iPhone’s camera to stream video live and also record video with your iPhone Camera. This is a beta release so it has a couple glitches. I installed and tested it and it is working great. Here are some instruction to get you going:
- If you have not already, you’ll need to sign up at http://qik.com/sign_up and receive an SMS from us to activate the application.
- Launch Cydia.
- Go to the “Sections” tab at the bottom and scroll down to “Multimedia.”
- Under Multimedia, you will find Qik. Tap on it then select “Install” at the top right, then in the same spot tap “Confirm.”
- Now you will see Qik get installed. You may hit the “Return to Cydia” button at the bottom or just quit Cydia when it is done installing.
- You’ll now notice a “Qik” icon on your home screen - Go ahead and launch it.
- As long as your initial signup SMS/text message is still in your inbox for the first launch, your account will be linked to your device.
- Make sure you have 3G service or are on WiFi (edge is not sufficient enough to stream video) before you begin broadcasting.
- Hit record and enjoy Qik!
Let me know what you think!
