Nodcam is a hands-free remote camera. Set your iPhone down, step back into the frame, and blink. It sees the gesture, counts down, and takes the photo. No timer button, no remote, no running back to the phone. HOW IT WORKS • Prop up your phone and open Nodcam. • Get everyone in the shot, including you. • Blink or hold up an open palm. Nodcam spots it, counts down 3 seconds, and shoots. Everything runs on the front camera with on-device face and hand detection. There is no account, no upload, and no internet needed to take a picture. MADE FOR • Self-portraits and group shots when nobody wants to be the photographer • Family photos where the phone is out of reach • Outfit and mirror shots without a shaky arm in the frame • Anyone who is tired of the 10-second sprint back into position FREE, FOREVER • Blink and open-palm triggers • Full-resolution photos saved to your library in Nodcam • 3-second countdown with haptic ticks so you know when to smile • Sensitivity slider, from relaxed to deliberate • A gallery that shows which gesture took each shot NODCAM+ (PREMIUM) Unlock the full remote camera with a NodCam+ subscription: • Video recording. Start and stop hands-free, with a gesture of your choice. • All 7 gestures. Add nod, head shake, and thumbs up to your triggers. • Sound triggers. Whistle or clap from across the room, even when your face is turned away. • Custom countdown. Pick anywhere from 1 to 10 seconds before the shot. • Your own trigger map. Assign any gesture to take a photo, start video, or stop video. NodCam+ is available as a weekly, monthly, or yearly plan. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage or cancel it in your App Store account settings at any time. PRIVACY FIRST Gesture detection happens entirely on your device. Your photos and videos stay on your phone unless you choose to share or save them. Nodcam never uploads your camera feed.
