DuoRoll

Features
Read full description

DuoRoll records a portrait 9:16 video and a landscape 16:9 video from one take, so creators can shoot once and publish in both formats. Frame your shot with a full-screen camera preview, monitor the secondary crop with picture-in-picture, and keep your delivery clean with the built-in teleprompter. Choose recording settings that match your device: 1080p or 4K, common frame rates from 24 to 60 fps, stabilization, bitrate, lens mode, file format, and storage target. DuoRoll automatically gates advanced options based on your iPhone capabilities. Save both versions to Photos when you are done and use diagnostics to check supported capture modes on your device.
