# Live camera sharing

> Broadcast your iPhone or iPad camera view to teammates in the browser in real time

Live camera sharing lets one teammate drive a virtual camera on their iPhone or iPad while everyone else watches the framing update in their browser — regardless of location.

## How it works

Spark transmits 3D coordinates, not video. This means a teammate in another city can drive the camera without lag, and anyone in the same scene can see where the broadcaster is positioned.

## Start broadcasting

1. In Lightcraft Spark, tap the **lightning bolt** button at the top of the shooting view.
2. The corresponding icon in the browser changes from blue to orange, signaling that the phone is broadcasting.

<Tip>
  If the lightning bolt does not engage on the first tap, tap it again. The handshake occasionally needs a second attempt.
</Tip>

## Follow the broadcaster

1. In the browser, click the orange lightning bolt icon.
2. Choose **Follow \[user name]** from the dropdown.
3. Your browser viewport now mirrors the broadcaster's camera in real time.

The broadcaster also appears as a gray camera inside the 3D scene, visible to everyone else in the session.

## Limitations

* Only one teammate can broadcast a live camera at a time. Multi-user simultaneous broadcast is on the roadmap.
* The broadcaster must have Lightcraft Spark open and connected to the same scene.
