MicCarry Turns an iPhone Into a Mac Microphone
MicCarry uses a USB-C connection to make an iPhone a low-latency microphone for Mac apps such as Zoom, Meet, dictation tools, and streaming software.
Field notes
MicCarry’s documented workflow uses the iPhone as the capture device and a Mac companion to expose a system-level input named “MicCarry (USB).” The page specifies USB-C iPhone and Apple Silicon Mac requirements, describes temporary encryption in transit, and says audio is neither saved nor uploaded during normal sessions. Its six-step guide includes concrete interface states such as “Cable not connected,” “Ready,” and “Microphone active,” making the intended operating behavior unusually inspectable.
