Hand Mirror is a minimalist Mac menu bar tool developed by Rafael Conde, centered around the core function of “instant access to the camera,” which has been recognized by the App Store as “an application you didn’t know you needed” and has been included in the “Essential Apps for Students” and “Remote Work Tool Kit.”
## Core Features
1. **Instant Camera Access**: Clicking the menu bar icon instantly opens the camera without launching any large applications, designed specifically for pre-checks for video conferences to avoid the awkwardness of “unexpected appearances in the camera.”
2. **Multi-Scenario Compatibility**: Supports quick checks for facial appearance before video calls, quick viewing of the surrounding environment during live streaming or recording, and the camera preview can be freely dragged to any position on the screen.
3. **Basic Camera Control**: Supports switching between multiple physical cameras, compatible with popular virtual cameras such as SnapCamera, Reincubate Camo, CamTwist, and mmhmm.
4. **Flexible Display Settings**: Users can freely enable or disable the video mirror function, supports the Center Stage feature of the Apple Studio Display, and can be switched on and off through the Control Center.
5. **Convenient Operation Methods**: By default, a global shortcut of Command+Control+H is provided, which can be customized to any shortcut; right-clicking the menu bar icon allows direct access to all settings and input source switching without opening the camera window.
6. **Lightweight and Unobtrusive Operation**: Only resides in the system menu bar, does not occupy the Dock space, starts very quickly, and consumes almost no system resources.
## Hand Mirror Plus Advanced Features
1. **Snapshots Feature**: Captures photos in the Polaroid style, with a built-in brush tool that allows direct annotation on the photo, supports saving to the system photo library or a designated folder. Free users can try the feature five times.
2. **Microphone Volume Check**: Directly displays the microphone input level in the menu bar in real-time, completely eliminating the classic problem of “Can everyone hear me?” at the beginning of video conferences.
3. **Reactions Playground**: Customizes the triggering methods for all built-in reactions in macOS Sonoma, making it easy to create fun screenshots and emoticons.
4. **Smart Window**: A fully customizable independent window that can be resized and positioned arbitrarily, with the option to set clicking the window’s exterior or pressing Escape to quickly close the window.
5. **Window Masks**: Supports zooming, cropping, and adjusting the radius of the camera display, creating personalized camera display effects.
6. **Notch Trigger**: On Mac devices with a notch, clicking the hardware camera area at the top of the screen directly opens the application without searching for the menu bar icon.
7. **Customizable Icon System**: Provides multiple application icons and menu bar icons to choose from, allowing personalization based on aesthetic preferences or desktop themes.
8. **Video Rotation and Aspect Ratio Locking**: Supports 90-degree rotation of the camera image, compatible with horizontally placed external cameras; when adjusting the window size, the aspect ratio can be locked to avoid image stretching.
