About this app

While the VDO.Ninja browser-based app version is suggested for most users, this native Android app version has a few key advantages:

- Can stream video while running in the background or with the screen off
- Screen sharing is supported, including the sharing of third-party apps
- Works on certain devices that won't support webRTC via the browser

The browser-based version can be found at https://vdo.ninja however, which supports group chat rooms, video recording, digital video effects, closed-captions, and much more more.

VDO.Ninja is a completely free open-source project.

Shattered Dream
January 12, 2026
Great for making videos, but not that great for streaming. When connected to OBS (you have to connect it as a browser in OBS btw), it is laggy. Not sure if this is my computer, OBS, or VDO.Ninja that causes it, but it's frustrating. It takes a while to figure out how to use it on OBS, but works great for audio and video capture. The lag is the main issue for me now.

its free so i dont want to complain. but there are a lot of annoying quriks. like you have to give microphone permissions so the camera works, even if audionis disabled. there are a lot of ways to connect your phone to obs but, none work great. like using back cam resets your settings everytime to 720p. using thr web option doesnt let you use landscape. permanent invites cant be accessed through the app, they just dont work. joining by name doesnt work at all. also abandoned..

no ads. better than iriun and droidcam. It's so easy. and it's surprisingly fast. Choose the access you want to give the daemon and you can use the browser link to view your camera anywhere. Dangerous app, but powerful and I'm stoked. This is going to launch my streaming career, i love it. Definitely the app is better than trying to use the website but the site is great for exploring
