View iPhone 15 Pro’s camera image on nearby iPad mini 5?

Goal: check my exercise form

Challenge: low vision

Plan: Prop iPhone so its camera captures me on the mat. Via magic technology, display on iPad on the floor by my eyes

Didn’t work: iOS screen mirroring

Both devices are up-to-date with iOS 26.5. Can you kindly explain the relevant magic tech? Willing to use an app if needed, welcome app advice.

The free if complex Blackmagic Cam app does this.

I thought this was called Continuity Camera but on the Apple Continuity page it doesn’t appear iPhone to iPad is possible.

I also searched a bit for screen mirroring but that also doesn’t seem applicable.

But here’s an idea, I can’t test it now to see if it works, but maybe you could do a FaceTime video call from iPhone to iPad, or Share Play…

This advice might work. Haven’t tried it myself.

Most mirroring apps on the App Store seem to have poor reviews!
