Shave View and privacy: what we're aiming for
By Con, founder of Music Wide Selfie · Updated 22 October 2026
Short answerShave View isn't built yet. The aim is that the live view is only seen on the screen you pair with your own iPhone, nothing records unless you choose to, and nothing turns on by itself. Full privacy details will be published before release.
Design goals
- The live view is meant only for the device you pair with your own iPhone.
- Nothing records unless you choose to record.
- You start it, you stop it; nothing turns on by itself.
- It should be obvious when the camera is live.
- Pairing by QR code, so only the screen you scan can show the view.
Still to be decided
- Exactly how video travels between phone and screen.
- What, if anything, is stored.
- How pairing is secured.
None of this will be described as a feature until it has been built and tested.
