Webcam Mirror

Sometimes you just need a mirror — checking your framing and lighting before a video call, seeing what a webcam actually captures before recording something, or confirming you look presentable before joining a meeting. Webcam Mirror shows your live camera feed full-screen, flipped horizontally like a real mirror by default (most webcams show a non-mirrored, “backwards” view compared to what you’re used to seeing in a mirror), with brightness and contrast adjustment to preview how you’ll look under your actual lighting.

Like the Audio Recorder, this tool deals with a genuinely live capture rather than an uploaded file — your camera feed is about as personal as data gets, since it shows your actual face and surroundings in real time. Nothing here is recorded, saved, or transmitted anywhere by default; the feed displays directly in your browser and disappears the moment you close the tab, with no server involved in showing you your own camera image back.

Grant camera access when prompted, and the feed appears immediately, mirrored by default to match what you’d see in a physical mirror — toggle this off if you specifically need to see the unmirrored, “as others see it” orientation instead. Adjust brightness and contrast sliders to preview how you’ll look under your current lighting before joining a call, and use the framing guide overlay to check that you’re centered and not too close or far from the camera.

FAQ

Why does the mirrored view look different from what I see on a video call?

Most video call apps show your feed unmirrored (the way others actually see you), which can look unfamiliar since you’re used to seeing yourself mirrored in physical mirrors — toggling the mirror off here shows you that same “as others see it” view before you join a call, which is often more useful for checking your actual on-call appearance.

Does this save or record anything from my camera?

No — the feed is shown live and never recorded, saved, or transmitted; closing the tab ends the session with nothing retained.

Can I use this to test my camera before an important call without opening my actual meeting software?

Yes — this is one of the more common uses, letting you check framing, lighting, and camera function without launching Zoom, Meet, or whichever platform you’re about to use.

If you need to actually capture and keep audio rather than just preview your camera, the Audio Recorder handles that separately, running through the same local-only approach for the recording itself.
