Reclaim the side of your screen as lighting to illuminate your face on video calls. Show up more clearly (and reduce visible screen flicker if browsing tabs!) https://goldenhourapp.com

Interesting, maybe just use white instead of yellow? Mostly it is a problem that people have too little light when they do video calls.

Hi! GoldenHour creator here. You can set that using the slider in the app! You get a full range of color temperatures.

I own an elegato Key Light but gave you my $5 because this is clever. Thanks for sharing!

Nifty idea. can you elaborate why this vs having a saved image of whatever color I want to pop open?

Very cool app. Being able to set the color is great in different light conditions.

This is one of those apps that makes you go “oh yeah that’s totally an obvious project, why didn’t i make that?”

Very nice!
