CinemaZoom works in Safari on a Mac with macOS 14 or later. Here is how to set it up, how to use it, and how to reach me.

Set it up

1. Open CinemaZoom from your Applications folder.
2. Click Open Safari Settings, then turn on CinemaZoom under Extensions.
3. Using Safari profiles? Turn it on in each one.

Watch a video

• On any video, click the CinemaZoom button in Safari’s toolbar, or press Option-V. The video opens in its own window.
• The first time you use it on a website, Safari asks about CinemaZoom. Always Allow keeps you signed in.
• Drag an edge or corner to resize the window. Drag the video to move it.
• Close the window to go back to Safari. Safari picks up the video at the same point.
• Minimize the window and it waits in the CinemaZoom button. Click the button or press Option-V to bring it back.

More options

Right-click the CinemaZoom button in Safari’s toolbar for Black-Bar Zoom on Paramount+, Picture Shape, and How to Use CinemaZoom.

When something looks wrong

If the button does nothing, open CinemaZoom from your Applications folder. Its window should say “CinemaZoom is on in Safari.” If it does not, click Open Safari Settings and turn it on. If you use Safari profiles, check the profile you are in.

For anything else, email me at support@cinemazoom.app with the website you were on and what you saw. A screenshot helps.
