SplitCapture composes your live camera feed with a photo or video from your library, then exports a clean image or video straight to Photos. HOW IT WORKS - Shared canvas: bring the live camera feed and a recent photo or video together in one frame - Shoot portrait or landscape, swap which source is on top, and switch cameras mid-shot - On-device rendering: the final composite is processed on your iPhone and saved directly to Photos WHY USE IT Reaction shots, before/after comparisons, duet-style videos, or simply pairing a moment you just lived with a moment you captured earlier. SplitCapture keeps it to one clean export instead of stitching things together after the fact. PRIVACY SplitCapture only accesses the camera, microphone, and Photos to compose and save the media you ask for. Nothing leaves your device.
