iPadOS 17 Adds Support for Studio Display Webcam and Other External USB Cameras

Tuesday June 6, 2023 2:46 pm PDT by Joe Rossignol

Starting with iPadOS 17, the built-in camera on the Studio Display and other external displays can be used with iPads for FaceTime calls and other video purposes. This functionality is available on any iPad model equipped with a USB-C port.

As it turns out, this feature actually goes beyond external displays. In its Platforms State of the Union video for developers, Apple revealed that any USB-C webcam can now be used with iPads on a plug-and-play basis, as demonstrated in the video below from Stephen Robles. USB-A webcams are also supported with an adapter.

iPadOS 17 is available in beta for anyone with an Apple developer account, and the update will be publicly released later this year.

I’m waiting for an update where we can plug the iPad Pro into the Studio Display while allowing to keep the iPad screen in sleep mode. Similar to keeping the lid closed on the MacBook while connected to the Studio Display.

That's great, but what about audio output switching?

Now it defaults to the HDMI output and can't be switched to anything other than bluetooth.

I know, but for example there's no way to connect a Blu-ray player to an iPad for playback, or a non-Apple computer like a Raspberry Pi.
for windows at least there's https://www.duetdisplay.com/#download

Yes, I know all that. But the iPad still can’t serve as a generic display.
Oh, I agree, and it would be nice, but I doubt it's happening :/

It would be nice if iPads could be used as monitors in general.
