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. WORKS EVERYWHERE - iPhone, iPad, and Mac PrivacyCamCut is a universal app for the devices you already use. Start with a saved video, the live privacy camera, or on macOS, a redacted virtual camera feed for other video apps. EDIT A VIDEO - Auto-detect faces and on-screen text in saved videos. - Hide each face with blur, pixelate, or a solid block. - Adjust mask strength, shape, and padding. - Add rules to redact phone numbers, addresses, and other sensitive text. - Export a redacted copy while the original remains unchanged. 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. PRIVATE BY DESIGN - 100% on-device processing. Footage never leaves your device. - No account, no servers, and nothing is ever uploaded. - Fail closed: if no face is found, the whole frame is blurred by default. - Stream keys are stored only in the device Keychain - never logged or exported. - Detected text and faces stay on-device - never logged, sent, or backed up. PrivacyCamCut is built for creators, journalists, educators, parents, teams, and anyone who needs to share video without exposing people or sensitive details.
