ONE CLEAR JOB

A focused workspace stays focused.

Choose the part of your screen that matters, then keep it live without turning your desktop into another complicated application.

Live Pins

Select any screen region and keep it visible in its own lightweight window.

Source Pins

Pin a chosen area from one app window with a dedicated capture source.

Working layouts

Restore saved pin layouts and control opacity per pin when the desktop gets busy.

Snapshot notes

Freeze a frame, draw or type over it, and restore the annotated snapshot later.

WHERE IT FITS

Made for live information you keep checking.

Pin the changing part of your Mac screen instead of constantly switching windows.

Charts and markets

Keep a stock chart, crypto price, or live dashboard nearby while you work.

System monitoring

Watch CPU, memory, disk, or network activity without opening Activity Monitor again and again.

Streaming and OBS

Use individual pin windows as clean capture sources for streams and recordings.

Video and reference

Float a reference, timer, chat, or tutorial over your workspace with adjustable opacity.

Development work

Keep logs, docs, AI chat, or code review context visible beside your editor.

TWO WAYS TO PIN

Screen-wide or source-aware.

SCREEN PIN

Choose any visible region.

Use it for references, live dashboards, chat, tutorials, and anything else on screen.

SOURCE PIN

Keep one app's region live.

Choose the target app first, then frame the exact portion you want to follow.

  1. Create a pinChoose New Pin, or use Control + Option + Command + P.
  2. Frame the useful areaDrag once around the live region you want to keep nearby.
  3. Arrange your workspaceMove the pin, adjust its opacity, and save the layout for later.

BUILT FOR LIVE WORK

A natural companion for OBS.

Each pin is a distinct macOS window. In OBS, select the pin you want as a window capture source and compose your scene with the same live view you use on your desktop.

  • Clear titles such as “Pin 1” and “Source 1 - Calculator”
  • Use individual window capture for precise scenes
  • Turn off Always on Top when another app should sit above a pin

QUESTIONS

The practical details.

What screen content does LiveFramePin store?

Live Pins are displayed locally and are not automatically uploaded or shared. Snapshot Pin images and annotations are stored on your Mac so Restore Pins can bring them back.

What happens when a Source Pin's app is minimized?

A Source Pin needs its target window to remain available to macOS capture. If the app is minimized, hidden, or moved to a Stage Manager state that stops capture, the pin pauses until the source returns.

Can I use LiveFramePin with OBS?

Yes. Pins appear as separately named macOS windows, so you can choose an individual pin in OBS window capture and build scenes around it.

How many Macs can I use with one license?

A Studio license is for personal use on up to two Macs.

What is the refund policy?

Refund requests are accepted within 14 days of purchase when LiveFramePin does not work as described and support cannot resolve the issue.

What macOS version do I need?

LiveFramePin requires macOS 14 or later and Screen Recording permission. The app explains why that permission is needed before you create pins.

Does it work with protected video or DRM content?

DRM-protected or restricted content may appear black or fail to capture because of macOS or content-provider restrictions. LiveFramePin does not bypass those protections.
