About

Double You

Read full description

Appear twice in the same video. Double You lets you create the classic clone effect: where you appear alongside yourself in a single video. No AI, no gimmicks, just a simple tool that does one thing very well. How it works: 1. Place your phone on a tripod or stable surface 2. Record your first take 3. Record your second take (don't move the phone) 4. Paint on screen to reveal where each version of you appears 5. Export and share Because the camera stays still, the two recordings blend seamlessly. You control exactly what shows from each take by painting a mask with your finger: intuitive and precise. Why Double You: No account required. No AI. No watermarks. Works offline. Export directly to your photo library. Everything is processed locally on your phone. Your videos are not uploaded, stored on our servers, or used to train AI. What you record stays on your device unless you choose to share it Create clone videos for social media content, creative storytelling, magic tricks, visual illusions, skits, and short-form platforms like TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts. One phone. Two takes. Infinite possibilities.
