Clarence House posted a video in their Instagram Stories of Charles joining in with the round of applause for the NHS from Birkhall, his private home on the Balmoral estate in Scotland.
The prince, 71, clapped along as he stood indoors smartly dressed in an open-necked shirt, and jacket with a handkerchief in his pocket.
Camilla, who is isolating from Charles because she does not have the Covid-19 illness, was also seen in separate footage clapping on her own as she looked out of an open window.
Charles had been at his desk working on Thursday.
He was said to be "enormously touched" by well-wishers' kind words after receiving hundreds of get-well messages, the day after it was revealed he had contracted the disease.
He was not the only royal taking part in the country-wide Clap for Carers.
His grandchildren Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis were filmed by the Cambridges applauding.
The sweet video was posted on the Kensington Royal Instagram page in view of their 11.4 million followers.
The video caption read: "To all doctors, nurses, carers, GPs, pharmacists, volunteers and other NHS staff working tirelessly to help those affected by #COVID19 : thank you."
