PrivacyCamCut hides faces and on-screen text in video without sending footage anywhere. Everything runs on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac: no uploads, no account, no servers. Use it before you share a saved clip, record a private camera view, or stream live with redaction already applied. The original video stays untouched, and exports are clean redacted copies.

Start with a saved video, the live privacy camera, or on macOS, a redacted virtual camera feed for other video apps.

LIVE PRIVACY CAMERA - See yourself redacted in real time before anything is recorded or sent. - Record a redacted clip locally on your device. - Go live to any RTMP or RTMPS destination with redaction already applied. MAC VIRTUAL CAMERA - On macOS, publish the redacted feed as the "PrivacyCamCut" system virtual camera. - Use it in OBS, Zoom, Google Meet, and other video apps that support system cameras. - Keep redaction on before your call, recording, or stream receives video.
