Simple Camera App
See every camera clearly before the call starts
Simple Camera App is a focused live camera viewer for macOS, Windows, and Linux. Discover every connected camera, identify the device on your desk, inspect supported resolutions and frame rates, and open clean previews in their own windows. Free mode lets you use one camera at a time in its default mode. A one-time Pro purchase unlocks simultaneous windows and every reported mode. Video stays in memory: no recording, upload, account, ads, or usage analytics.
Hi Product Hunt — I built Simple Camera App because checking a webcam should take seconds, not require opening a recording or streaming suite.
The core flow is intentionally direct:
• discover every connected camera
• identify which device name matches the hardware on your desk
• inspect its reported resolutions and frame rates
• open a clean live preview in its own window
Free mode lets you use any one camera at a time in its default mode. A one-time Simple Camera Pro purchase unlocks simultaneous camera windows and every resolution/frame-rate mode the camera reports. There is no subscription.
Simple Camera App runs on macOS, Windows, and Linux. During normal use, video stays in memory on your computer. The app does not record, save, upload, or transmit the feed or audio, and it requires no account, ads, or usage analytics.
I’d especially value feedback on the discover-and-identify flow and whether the camera details make setup problems easier to diagnose.
