I never seen any sites use phones as much as stripchat? It's alot of the top girls. I use my logitech HD cam. Is it better to use phone?

It's a new era of cam modeling.

Since Covid hit, a lot of new people have come into cam modeling. Lots of people who got into it just to see if they could never had the hardware most of us needed previous to the influx.

So... it's a buncha baby-cammodels just doing what they can with what they can.

I won't go into my opinion on all of that here :D

It just seems odd when they make alot and have like 800k followers. I just wasn't sure if I needed to start camming on my phone or something lol

They may be people who had a big following already on instagram or tiktok or twitter, they only know how to do things on their phone lol, but their following came to the cam site that way.
 
I wonder if the perception that it’s an on-the-fly amateur broadcast from someone’s cell phone attracts a different type of customer?

I would think it's because the phone camera is better with an instant and familiar editing suite and can easily be turned on/off if interrupted.

Almost all of us have someone in the house/apartment at some point in time while we're working. Putting a web cam on a tripod away isn't exactly discreet.
 
I imagine it's also a good way to attract phone viewers since they'll get a picture that fits their screen. Reasonable approach since mobile users outnumber desktop, broadly.
 
Stripchat kinda encourages mobile streaming and I think they may boost traffic a bit for that. But I will say I haaaaate it and never make tips or get privates when I do so, so meh. My eyes are too old to read the chat that way, it's a no for me!
 
I think with mobile phones it can be a bit more "personal" in the sense the model can move the camera much easier without problems.
I know from experience some webcams can't be moved and although they have a zoom, it's not the same. Also, sometimes moving a webcam can freeze and completely stop/break the stream. Where as with a mobile, it's much easier and I don't think I have ever known a model to move the camera (from a selfie stick/tripod) and it to break the stream (excluding connection problems). So there is that reason, plus I think it can definitely feel a bit more personal this way too, using the phone.

Interesting. The little thing that helps the cam balance on my computer broke shortly after getting it so I have it rigged up with command strips and I often move it from the top of my PC to a selfie stick tripod or the ring light holder. A lot of stuff has broken my streams, I'm on an older mac desktop that could use a memory boost for multi-streaming, but never moving it. I really like this type of flexibility and always moved my cams around without issue even in the early 2000s. Maybe it depends on the camera model or even computer memory, cuz my cam is a pretty cheap no-frills model (EMEET but it does HD)?
 
Phone can do the entire job. Good camera, earbuds with bluetooth easier to setup, lovense app, obslite. Easy to do skype shows or prepays if they choose to do it. You can run the skyprivate/CMD app on the PC and still work from your phone and it works for per min. There's mounts, lights and tripods all in one for phones. Built in lights and filters.

In most cases it cost more than their computers so why not. If you're in Europe they're even easier to get so you can have a separate one from your private phone

The main things modern members are paying premium for, privacy, intimacy and on demand.

You'd be shocked how many members are operating off a phone or tablet themselves or at least wanting to.

There's no 'inferior' setup if you have regulars successfully paying for service.

Right now more models are offering prepaid skype through their onlyfans for the 90% cut. It's only a matter of time before onlyfans grows a brain and better enables one on one privates.

Models get 80% on OnlyFans. But I agree that they should add a private show feature…without a mandatory free chat. I wonder if they’ll ever do that, though, while MyFreeCams (owned by the same guy who owns OnlyFans) is still up and running. He probably figured models wishing to do privates will just make an MFC account and cam on there…though there’s a massive difference in the two sites’ payout percentages. It’s the only adult site models are able to advertise on their OnlyFans feed (“I’m going live on MyFreeCams at 10 PM EST!”) without the cam site name being censored out.

Not sure who the "you" referred to is, but I and many other other models are well aware of these behind the scenes stats. The tech my members are using has little bearing on the tech I need to use to offer the best show.

This is nothing against anyone using a phone, mine has a GREAT camera but that is not the issue, especially when it comes to multi-streaming.

They have their competitor sites also, so hopefully that will keep the incentives to add features to onlyfans. The other issue is the $200 cap on payments so you have to split the payment if you're using onlyfans for something expensive. Not the perfect system but at least is an option.

I think members are at this point pretty savvy at following breadcrumbs if the model is leaving them. I check if models have a allmylink or linktree setup now out of habit. Since I'm mainly c2c focused when it's not SM or SC I've been surprise how many CB or MFC models rather coordinate the session through other means and times so they can do those shows without it disrupting their normal public show schedule.
