Description

Optimized for macOS Sequoia

"App You Didn't Know You Needed" — App Store

Hand Mirror is a super simple app that lives in your Menu Bar (little cozy top right corner of your Mac) and gives you a one-click access camera check!

‣ Need to jump on a video call? Quick camera check.
‣ Need to quickly check your surroundings? Quick camera check.
‣ Need a view of your camera for when you're streaming or recording your screen? Quick camera check and drag the window around.
‣ Need to check your face because you're gorgeous? Quick camera check.

Want more? Good thing for Hand Mirror Plus:
It's a one-time purchase that will unlock all past, present, and future features added to the app, like:
‣ Mic Check: You already know you look good, but can people hear you? Check your microphone levels directly from Hand Mirror
‣ Reactions Playground: Custom triggers for all of the new macOS Sonoma Reactions for some fun screenshots
‣ Smart Window: Fully customizable, resizable, positioned window
‣ Window Masks: Zoom, crop, tweak border radius, make your camera view just like you like it
‣ Custom position: Want to trigger the window right below your camera, pick where the window appears
‣ Notch Trigger: If you're on a compatible device, you can click right on the camera housing area to trigger Hand Mirror
‣ Custom App Icons and Menu Bar Icons: Make the Menu Bar icon match your camera and or your taste
‣ Snaps (COMING SOON): [REDACTED]

(every time a new feature is released with Hand Mirror Plus, the price will go up, so this bundle will never be as cheap as NOW).

_____

This app does not record, collect, or send your data anywhere — for three reasons:
1. There's absolutely no need, it's just a feed of your own web camera.
2. I wouldn't do that, that's just creepy.
3. And most importantly: I don't even have the programming skills to do that. Seriously, but thanks for thinking that I did!

Use when screen sharing or recording

For example, I might be showing a Miro board in a Teams meeting. I can detach the Hand Mirror window, showing me speaking, and move it to the position on the Miro that I am talking about, then move it to the next part of the board. I can even point to specific parts of the board. Also use this when screen recording. It's a great trick, always impresses people.

Simple app which is perfect

So this app gives you a icon on the top bar you click it and it brings up your video feed. I'm using it witha HDMI capture device which I use for debuging Raspberry PI bootup problems.

It saves me a lot of hassle thanks..

Simple design is always the best

Yes! This is exactly what I was looking for. No more scrabbling to fire up Photo Booth or searching for the device preferences deep in MS Teams 30 seconds before your crucial meeting is about to start to check what you and your background looks like.

An absolute necessity for these stay-at-home times... should really be built in to mac os.

Just one thing... it doesn't work with a 'virtual camera' that I use called iGlasses (I just get a black rectangle).
