Hey Product Hunt 👋
The idea for Compact came from my morning commute. I kept noticing people using their front-facing cameras as mirrors—checking their hair or touching up their makeup while balancing a phone on a crowded train.
When the iPhone Duo was announced, a pocket mirror felt like such a natural use for the form factor. That everyday problem suddenly seemed like an opportunity to build something useful.
So I built Compact: a mirror app for those little moments before you arrive, head into a meeting, or step out for the evening.
I’d love to hear what you think. When do you reach for your phone as a mirror, and what would make that experience better?
