Try a different cable. I suspect that the cable you’re using might be a “charge only” cable that doesn’t carry the data.

Well, I just tried with an Apple USB-C to USB-C cable, and it still didn't work. Wouldn't that be a cable that passes data?

Ironically Apple makes two USB-c cables. One is a data cable, the other, as I recall, is charge only — though I might be confusing that with an Apple A <> C cable.

USB-C. One port to rule us all… by beating us into sniveling submission.

I hauled all of my non-compliment C cables off to Tech Dump and purchased Anker Powerline 3 cables to avoid this confusion. Beyond that all I can offer is that I can use either an X-S10 or an X-100V as a webcam on my 2016 MBP. It’s not a question of whether or not the app “works”. A reasonable question for those who struggle with the Camera Remote app.
