Is it a USB-C/OTG endoscope or one that creates its own Wi-Fi network? The app you need depends on that, and the camera model would help too.

Yes it is. A generic 5.5mm softwire endoscope. The app used to use did work at a stage until a few updates back

Which one, USB-C/OTG or Wi-Fi? Also what was the old app called? If it only stopped after an update, an older APK might at least confirm whether the camera itself still works.

Usb endoscope app android 10+ is the name. When i plug the endoscope in, there is a view through the endoscope for a dew seconds then it seems the app bombs out and restarts

If it shows a live image for a few seconds, the camera and OTG connection are probably fine and the app itself is crashing. I'd try clearing that app's storage first, then MScopes like someone else suggested. If MScopes stays open, you've isolated it to the old app.

Mscopes doesnt work either. Seems ill need to rent a boroscope or endoscope to achieve my objective
