CamPhoto is the complete webcam solution for your Mac. Take photos and videos with your webcam or your iPhone — fast, in top quality, and with no subscriptions.
Photos and videos with your webcam or iPhone
- Supports all USB webcams compatible with Mac
- Use your iPhone as a camera thanks to Apple's Continuity Camera
- Choose the resolution, frame rate (FPS), and maximum quality for each camera
- Supports Portrait mode, backgrounds, Center Stage, Studio Light, and Reactions when your camera offers them
- Capture with the big shutter button, the space bar, or the Enter key
- The screen blinks when you take a photo — just like on your iPhone
Realtime Face Effects
Hide your face right in the live feed — great for privacy and for fun:
- Blur: blurs your face
- Pixelate: pixelates your face
- BlackBox: places a black rectangle over your face
- StickerFace: places a random emoji over your face
The effects use Apple AI for face detection, work in real time, and can detect up to 4 faces at once. You can adjust the size of the covered area in the settings. For now, the effects are available for photos.
Floating Webcam Feed
A floating window showing the live video from your webcam or iPhone — perfect for video tutorials, videocasts, video calls, streaming, and reactions. Also great for checking how you look before an important video conference.
- 3 shapes: circular, rectangular, or rectangular with rounded corners
- Resize it to any size and move it anywhere on the screen
- "Stay on Top" keeps the window above all other windows — even over apps in fullscreen mode
- A dedicated menu bar icon to control the app
- Take photos in this mode too
- Right-click the window to open the same context menu right there
Your sound, your choice
Select any audio input your Mac supports. Ideal for musicians, singers, and YouTubers: capture the video with your iPhone camera and the audio with your professional gear. CamPhoto remembers the last audio device you used.
Thoughtful down to the details
