Cheapest Mobile Friendly Live Cams

When it comes to a cam site that's truly mobile friendly there are many features to take into account. How does the live feed come through on your mobile device or smartphone? Does it offer a 2way video chat option? And how much are private shows, and do you get any extra benefits or discounts if you log-in on a mobile?

We've taken a look at the top ten cheapest cam sites and compared their mobile platforms to find out which are the best sites to access from a tablet, smartphone or other mobile device.

The Difference Between Mobile and Desktop

One of the major differences between the mobile version and desktop version of cam sites is how the live video window appears. On a desktop you can easily view the action and chat via a message box with the model. On most mobile versions, the chat box tends to take up half of the screen either disrupting a good portion of the view, or minimizing the video window by 50%.

Out of the five platforms listed above, the best layout is LiveJasmin's, which features the chat box as a transparent overlay so you can chat with the host without missing any of the action taking place in the show.

Almost all live cam platforms have a mobile optimized layout, but only a few offer mobile C2C capabilities. CamSoda, Flirt4Free, xLoveCam and LiveJasmin are all C2C optimized, in fact they are the only major webcam platforms which are.

Mobile Benefits & Free Webcam Performances

CamSoda, Flirt4Free and LiveJasmin all give free credits/tokens to new members who register a credit card as a payment method on the site. You don't need to use the card to make a purchase in order to get the freebies. The credits/tokens can be used to tip the performers or pay for a cheap private session.

BongaCams gives up to 100 free tokens to new and registered users who purchase and use tokens via their mobile device. Be aware though that you must purchase the tokens and spend them within 7 days of receipt. You'll also get an additional 10 free tokens if you verify an email address.

While xLoveCam doesn't have bargains or promotions like the other sites, what it does offer is a Monday bonanza where most of the premium models hang out showing more of themselves than usual in their open chat rooms for 24 hours. Also, new members get a free video to watch as a welcome gift.

Show Types

Both CamSoda and BongaCams are freemium sites, which means the models can get as wild as they want in their open chat rooms. Most of the action here is fueled by tips enabling viewers to enjoy very affordable live cam performances, if not totally free shows. The other sites are premium, which means the action should strictly remain pay for play. However, Flirt4Free's and xLoveCam's models push the boundaries with this and often flash and give a short intimate teaser of what to expect if you start a private show. LiveJasmin's models tend to remain more demure.

While LiveJasmin's and Flirt4Free's private session rates are higher than at the other sites, they both offer multi-viewer show options. These are no-holds barred performances, hosted by the model with discounted per minute chat rates.

Conclusion

The following table shows at a glance the features provided by the five low-cost cam sites on their mobile versions. It compares private chat rates, mobile C2C capabilities and whether the site offers free shows.

If you're looking for a 2-way video and audio session, make sure you check first with your preferred host that they are in fact C2C friendly. Not all are, especially the amateur performers at CamSoda and BongaCams. While these sites all provide an optimized layout for mobile devices, sometimes promotions and special deals don't appear. Before buying credits, it's always worth checking out, if possible, the desktop version which often features extras that don't come up on the mobile version of the site.
