## What is Parallel?

Capture the moment and your reaction. Or record once and get both portrait and landscape videos. Parallel gives you two ways to tell the whole story.
RECORD ONCE. SAVE BOTH FORMATS.
Dual mode uses your front or rear camera to record portrait (9:16) and landscape (16:9) videos simultaneously. Get separate files ready for vertical posts and widescreen sharing, with no need to record the moment again.
TWO CAMERAS. ONE STORY.
Record with the front and rear cameras together in a single video. Choose Picture in Picture, Split Screen, or Top and Bottom, then select portrait or landscape output. Capture what you see alongside your reaction, commentary, or demonstration.
MAKE THE FRAME YOURS
Move and resize the floating camera, choose a square or portrait shape, and swap which camera takes the main view. Remove the front-camera background to place yourself over the scene, with processing handled directly on your device.
PREVIEW. SAVE. SHARE.
Browse your recordings in the gallery, play them back, and save your favorites to Photos. Share either format individually or both videos together.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Your recordings stay on your device until you choose to save or share them. No account required.
Available in English and Vietnamese. Simultaneous front and rear camera recording requires a compatible device.
