see ya turns two iPhones into a wireless camera and remote. Prop one phone up as the camera, hold the other as your remote, and watch a live viewfinder in your hand. Frame the shot, zoom, tap to focus, and fire the shutter — photo, video, or time-lapse — from across the room. Finally everyone gets in the picture, and you shoot with the good rear camera instead of the selfie cam. WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT • Be in the photo — no one stuck behind the camera • Real rear-camera quality, framed from anywhere in the room • A live viewfinder on your remote, so you see exactly what you'll get • Works with no Wi-Fi and no signal — the phones connect directly to each other • Private by design: no account, no servers, nothing leaves your phones FULL CAMERA CONTROL, FROM YOUR HAND • Optical zoom with real lenses • Tap to focus, exposure, torch, and zebra stripes • Photo, video, and true time-lapse • Volume-button shutter • A big level — including a crosshair for overhead and top-down shots MORE THAN ONE CAMERA • Pair several cameras and switch between them from one remote • Link cameras to fire them all at once for multi-angle shots • Draw alignment guides on the remote that appear on the camera — line up a shot, move things, and line it up again Every capture saves straight to your photo library, optionally geotagged. Great for group photos, self-portraits, product shots, wildlife, long exposures, real estate, and anywhere you'd rather be in front of the lens than behind it. Made by Passive Products in Austin, Texas.
