But, VERY unfortunately, after about 1 hour of use, it started to 'freeze' images and/or free the audio. And you can definitely control all sorts of functions with an external webcam through this app. Upon downloading the app, it appeared to work wonderfully with all the settings, as promised.

#TURN ON CAMERA MAC OS DRIVERS#

I also have a nice external webcam and thought this would allow me to control it better as the company that makes the webcam has drivers that don't work well with macOS. I researched this app before purchasing as I just upgraded to a 2020 iMac. So if you have poor lighing conditions in your home/office for video calls, if you have at least a halfway decent webcam, this app may save you the cost of getting additional lighting.

#TURN ON CAMERA MAC OS MANUAL#

One unexpected bonus is that even though these Logitech cameras are not very good at adjusting to the extreme lighting conditions in my office (not enough ambient light for the default settings, too much light with the video lights on), I was able to create manual presets for each scenario and now they produce a great looking video feed for Zoom calls even with ambient office light only.

#TURN ON CAMERA MAC OS PRO#

I have some video lighting set up in my office and I can switch with one click between the perfectly tuned setting between natural ambient light and pro lighting. This app does the job perfectly, including storing presets. I got this app because the Logitech 930c webcam I use for zoom calls doesn't allow for any settings on Mac. Best investment to supplement my new webcam on a Mac: I'm going to basically copy and paste what another reviewer 'Bob' said recently, because it 100% reflects my experience of this brilliant app. I wish the developer cared and fixed bugs reported here, but he apparently doesn't even read the reviews here.Īmazing! I use it with Logitech 930c and Zoom

It is a good concept poorly executed and rarely updated, even though it's full of bugs. Sometimes it fails to save the advanced settings. So you keep switching back and forth and eventually you arrive at a completey black video feed. When I change the flicker filter between 50 and 60 Hz, with every change between the settings, it decreases the brightness a bit. Sometimes it forgets/changes settings on its own and I show up in a Zoom meeting with my bright red - until I open the app settings, reload the one that was supposed to be used in the first place, and then it goes back to the right settings.

In practice, there are so many bugs (many of them described in reviews here), and the developer doesn't seem to care, so it is only borderline usable. I bought this to override the default settings of my Logitech webcam which were horrible for Zoom. * Your USB webcam must be working on your Mac properly (function normally with FaceTime, iChat/Messages, and Skype) before it can be used with Webcam Settings. * Webcam Settings support UVC (USB Video Class) webcam only FireWire camera such as external iSight is not supported.
