FaceScreen displays a floating live camera feed and an optional text label on top of everything else on your screen. Add a personal touch to your screen recordings, presentations, livestreams, and screen sharing sessions by keeping your face visible at all times. Use the built-in screen recorder on your phone or any third-party screen recording app. FaceScreen does not record, store, or process any video or personal data. It simply displays a customizable camera overlay on top of other apps and content. FEATURES Camera • Single camera mode: A sleek camera overlay that floats above all other apps. • Dual camera mode: Show both cameras at once with a draggable picture-in-picture front camera. • Customize everything—from the camera shape and position to zoom level, size, orientation, and more. • Zoom in when your camera is farther away for better visibility. • Works seamlessly over apps running in full-screen mode. • Drag and position the camera overlay anywhere on your screen. • Your settings, including position, size, and appearance, are automatically saved for the next time you use FaceScreen.
