Overviewer Hack 1.3 + Redeem Codes

I discovered this incredible app while distancing teaching during the pandemic. It’s so heartwarming to find out that Charlie created this for his teacher wife. I absolutely love that it does full screen mode as a document camera on my iPhone.

I do have a Yuuuge request: Would it be possible to create a version of this for the iOS 9.3.5 update? I would love to install it on old iPod touches that a colleague donated to me, but sadly the App Store says “Overviewer” is not compatible with this iPod. Our school just invested in large flatscreen tvs for us to screenshare for lessons and it would be a game changer to use these iPod touches as document cameras.

I want to thank the developer for making this tool available for teachers for free. I have not used it with zoom yet but I watched the video and tried the functions in the app, such an easy to use tool with features exactly needed by teachers and students in virtual classrooms. It is heartwarming to know that there are ppl out there who genuinely wants to help teachers during this uncertain time. Thank you again Charlie.

This app is great for teachers in remote teaching who don’t have a document camera or have the capacity to take theirs home from their school buildings. The setup is very easy to follow and almost foolproof. There’s a little bit of a lag in the video feed but only a couple seconds and doesn’t hinder productivity. You can zoom in using the “pinch” method on your phone screen. You would need to set your phone on an elevated platform such as a stack of books or boxes but a tripod probably works best in order to capture the image you want to project. Definitely recommend to teachers or others who need a document camera for video conferencing purposes.

I’ve been using Reincubate Camo and my own laptop when my daughter has virtual OT sessions each week to help with her handwriting. So grateful for Charlie making this and simplifying our setup. I just used it today connected to my daughter’s Mac mini.

Thanks for easily solving the rotation issue in an easy, straightforward way!

I just discovered this app, and I love how simple the screen looks compared to using the camera app. I wish for the ability to set a focus point though. Sometimes during a writing demo the camera is focused on my finger rather than the paper. Otherwise it’s fabulous! Love that you can turn on the flashlight, too.

I’m an art teacher and demonstrations over a document camera are so helpful and necessary! During remote education I would have to haul a big doc camera from school to home... or spend big money to have my own. This app makes remote teaching a breeze. It works very well! Thank you! I’m so grateful!

I have an online academy in drawing, I use my iPad as a camera and being able to slide the images around on Zoom screen sharing is fantastic, non of the other apps allow this versatility. Thank you. Glenn V.

Charlie, you really brightened my day. This will be so very helpful as I explain complex electromechanical devices to my professional audience. Thank you so much! (And please let me know how I can support you financially. I know this is free, but I figure for professional use I owe you some money!)

This is a simple app that serves great purposes for instructors and teachers. I’ve been looking for such an app for a long time.
I’m using it to connect my phone to the microscope and display the live camera to the projector screen. It is amazing and students like it.

I'm a science teacher and do a lot of labs for my middle-school students to observe while learning virtually during the pandemic. This app cost you nothing, yet brings so much value to my lessons, as now I can model some labs live, vs. pre-recorded labs.
