One window.
No grid, timeline, alerts, or administration—just the camera you chose.
A small camera viewer for Mac
A quiet window into the places you care about.
Skue keeps one local camera in a clean, resizable window—with quick switching when you need another view and no dashboard in the way.

Only the view
Everything it needs. Nothing it doesn’t.
Skue is deliberately a utility, not a camera-management system. It opens quickly, shows the stream, and stays out of the way.
A focused Mac utility
Shape the window around your work.
Resize it tall or wide, drag it from anywhere on the picture, and keep it above other apps when the view needs to remain close.
- Aspect-fill video reaches every edge without black bars.
- Camera names and addresses can be changed in Settings.
- A compact chooser, matching pin, focus control, and close button appear when you hover.
- Draw any rectangular area to keep only that part of the camera in view.
- Right-click temporarily expands the view to the available screen.
- RTSP streams travel directly between the Mac and local system.
Your names.
Rename every camera and replace its address without rebuilding the app.
Your network.
Camera addresses stay in a private settings file on the Mac.
The name
A word for looking with attention.
The name comes from an Old Norse and Norwegian root meaning to look at, behold, or observe—a small word for the app’s single job.
Old Norse · Norwegian
skue
to look at · behold · observe
Current release
Skue 1.1 is ready.
The first public release is signed with Apple Developer ID, notarized by Apple, and made for Apple silicon Macs running macOS 15 or later.
