macOS and Mac Apps

Hello mates,

here is my new app for MacOS. An easy tool to help blind people to know if we are sit just in front of the camera for a video meeting.

Here is the description from the MacAppStore:

Have you got any problem to know if your head is centered in front of your camera? Are you not able to see your screen or are you a blind person?

Using CenteredHead you can know if your head is centered in front of the camera.

This application is an accessibility tool to help blind persons and persons who are not able to know if the head is centered in front of the camera

You can Download CenteredHead from the MacAppStore

is their a promo code available?

Hi their,

Is there a promo code available? also, will it work with other apps such as Zoom?

Tested with Zoom, Webex and more

Hello,

The app was tested while other app was open.

I tested it with Zoom, Webex, Microsoft teams, Google meet and Facetime

OBS?

Have you done testing with OBS and similar recording/streaming apps? This would be a huge bonus for blind content creators.

Asking for testers

Honestly I didn't test the app with OBS.

If anyone wants to test it, please contact me in tyflosaccessiblesoftware@gmail.com

I am wondering why not juse CenterStage which focuses the iPhones camera on your face automatically. But only works when using the iPhone as the camera for your mac. For people who don't have or want to use it that way, it is nice to have this App as an option.

Interesting app

Very interesting idea. This tool can be useful. I definitely try that.
