JourniCam keeps it simple: front and back cameras, recording together. Capture the scene — and yourself in it. No need to choose one or the other. 【Front & Back, Recording Together】 The rear camera films the scene. The front camera films you. Two independent videos, saved at the same moment. Travel, food reviews, tutorials — one take, both angles covered. 【Multi-Lens Control】 Wide, telephoto, ultra-wide, front — assign any lens to the main or secondary frame. Not just front and back. Multiple focal lengths, recording simultaneously. 【Focus Lock + Exposure Slide】 Long-press to lock focus. Slide up or down to adjust exposure. Backlit, low-light — you decide how bright or dark the frame gets. 【Pause. Resume.】 Pause anytime during a recording. Resume when you're ready. The result is one continuous file — no post-production stitching needed. 【Auto-Segment】 Set an interval. The recording splits into separate clips at each mark. Open your album when you're done — clips already organized, ready to edit. 【Image Quality】 4K. 60fps. Motion stabilization. Clean motion, no trailing. Frame-by-frame sharp. 【Silent Recording】 No shutter sound. Won't interrupt music or podcasts playing in the background. Film quietly. Disturb nothing. 【Dual Live Photos】 Capture a Live Photo from both cameras at once. A little more than a still. A little less than a video. 【JourniCam】 Miles to Go, Stories to Frame. Here's to capturing every moment worth remembering. 【Supported Devices】 iPhone or iPad running iOS 13 or later. 【Suggestions & Feedback】 Thank you for using our app. If you encounter any issues, please feel free to email us at support@newruixi.com. 【Premium Subscription】Auto-Renewable Subscription Terms Subscription Options: Monthly Premium: 1-month subscription, auto-renewable.
