Place your Logitech webcam in the desired position on your computer, desk, tripod, or stand. You can move and adjust your webcam whenever you like so you don’t need to worry about its positioning being perfect right now. Plug your Logitech webcam into your computer via a USB port.

Your computer should automatically detect the Logitech webcam and install the appropriate device drivers if they’re not already present. If your computer is running an operating system older than Windows 8 or macOS 10.10, you will need to manually install the drivers yourself from the Logitech support website.

The menu should be called something like Camera, Video, Input, or Source. The specific menu name will vary from app to app but the function should be the same. To use your Logitech webcam’s built-in microphone, open Settings and select System &gt; Sound in Windows, and make sure it&#39;s selected in the Input dropdown menu.

On Mac, open the Apple menu and click System Preferences &gt; Sound and select your webcam from the list of devices. While webcam audio is functional, if you’re recording a podcast or audio file for a project, it can be worth investing in a dedicated microphone for a higher-quality experience.

For example, if you’re using OBS Studio to stream on Twitch, YouTube, or Facebook Gaming and you want to change how the webcam acts or looks, you’ll need to edit the Source or Scene settings relating to it. In the Windows Camera app, you can change the webcam’s brightness and other similar settings from the left toolbar. If you can’t find the settings for your Logitech webcam within the app you’re using, it’s likely that the app simply doesn’t support any extra options for how the camera is used.
