Crop, zoom, and reposition any camera, then present the perfect view to every app on your Mac. No plugins, no filters, no fuss. Just you, looking exactly how you want.
Choose the source camera, then crop, zoom, and drag in a live preview. Scroll or pinch to zoom; the frame follows your fingers.
A system camera extension presents "Narcissus Camera" to macOS and does the cropping itself — your apps just see a camera.
Select Narcissus Camera in Zoom, Teams, or QuickTime and your framing follows you everywhere. It even keeps working with the app quit.
Narcissus Camera appears alongside your real hardware in every app that lists cameras. No plugins to install per app.
A live preview with real controls — crop, zoom, reposition. Scroll to zoom, drag to frame, done.
The extension serves frames on its own. Quit the menu-bar app; your framing stays exactly where you left it.
Your actual image, just framed the way you want. Nothing is smoothed, tinted, or beautified.
A quiet menu-bar app for settings and the crop editor. No windows in your way, no Dock clutter.
Checks for updates about once a day, and updates install in place — the camera extension included.
No. Narcissus never touches your image beyond the frame — no filters, no smoothing, no gimmicks. It's your camera's real picture, cropped and positioned the way you want.
Anything that lists cameras. Narcissus shows up as a regular camera called "Narcissus Camera" — select it in Zoom, Teams, QuickTime, Photo Booth, or any other video app.
No. The camera extension does the work itself, so your framing keeps flowing even when the menu-bar app is quit.
macOS asks once to allow the camera extension in System Settings, and for camera access. That is all.
Narcissus is feature-complete and in hardware testing now. It'll be here soon — until then, its row on our apps page is the place to watch.
