Rearview - When you're in a cafe and someone is staring at your screen

Nobody likes when someone behind is staring at your screen. Doesn't matter if it is your boss or nosy person in the cafe. Rearview solves this problem by using built-in or external camera in a handy way.

Putting big "Problem" title at the begining of page is not so good idea. I thought something went wrong.

@ariel_jedrzejczak My exact thoughts as well. I thought it was a 404 page before I kept reading.

@ariel_jedrzejczak @chris_germano thanks! I've changed "Problem" to "Scenario" (which is still not prefect, but hope it's less misleading).

Thank you all for feedback! That's my first side project that received so many upvotes and positive comments. I'll continue working on this app 🙂

Hi Hunters! I found that the situation in which someone stares at my monitor is terribly uncomfortable. This happens so often, especially when working in cafes or open space. That's why I created an application on macOS, which in a convenient way shows a mirror image from the MacBook camera. Always on top, even if other apps are on full screen. The camera is started from status item in menu bar. I also added an optional sound alarm when the camera detects more than one face. Thanks for reading! I will be grateful for any feedback!

Feature request: When you detect a second face, automatically full screen the window and slow zoom into their face. (Instagram superzoom effect optional for added embarrassment)

Hi Hunters👋

 Rearview is back! After 6 months of designing, developing and procrastinating there is time for version 2.0 which is fully usable product, rather than proof of concept.

 What's new: 
- user-friendly emoji alarm(😎/😱) instead of annoying sound alarm - possibility to use external camera📽 - improved performance - possibility to set number of faces to trigger alarm - tutorial - better website, better App Store images and preview - higher price 💸
 What do you think?
