What it does
FrostCam is a macOS virtual camera that lets you freeze your webcam - or loop a short recording - during any video call. Step away, sneeze, check your phone, or fix your hair without going black mid-meeting. A frozen frame keeps the rhythm of the call; people don't notice, which is the point. Works in Zoom, Meet, Teams, FaceTime and any video app. Everything runs on-device - no recording, no accounts, no cloud. Free to try. One-time Pro unlock, no subscription.
A virtual camera for macOS that lets you freeze your webcam or loop a recording during video calls. Works in Zoom, Meet, Teams, FaceTime, and any video app.
Freeze the frame — or loop a few seconds of yourself — in Zoom, Meet, Teams, FaceTime and anything else with a camera picker. It looks like you got still, not like you left. FrostCam lives in the menu bar and shows up as a regular camera everywhere else. Pick it as your source once and forget it's there. Holds the current frame on the virtual camera. Grab the door, refill the coffee, deal with the delivery — the call keeps its rhythm. Tap again to resume. Records 3–10 seconds of you looking attentive, then plays it back on repeat with bounce playback, so the seam never snaps. For the longer step-aways. One click on first launch, one approval in System Settings. FrostCam becomes a system…from frostcam.app

Presentations for your webcam, not a projector2024 · cuecam-presenter.com · ▲246CueCam Presenter is my Mac app (actually a suite of Mac and iOS apps) to run better presentations on your webcam. Editing cards should feel natural to anybody used to Markdown. I came to create CueCam as an "embedded entrepreneur". I had some success with my camera app "Shoot Pro Webcam" back in 2020 and built on this by creating squares.tv. As I talked to more and more users, I discovered more opportunities to make their lives easier. I started with features in Shoot (camera options, pausing, drawing etc..).. Then I created Video Pencil (which connects to your computer and lets you draw on…

The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!

Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
