Record video from multiple cameras at the same time straight to your photo library. You no longer need three cameras to get the three different shots, some subjects can only be captured once! Harness the power of 3 cameras with just your phone & this app. Optional configurations include record 2 4k streams (2 camera video) or a single 4k + 2 1080p streams (3 camera video). Video include up to 4 lens options to choose from (on Pro phone models), the wide angle (1x), ultra wide angle, telephoto & FaceTime cam. The user interface does not currently include a preview of what each of the cameras is seeing, this feature is coming in a soon to be released update. For now I recommend establishing your shot using the iOS camera app on video mode & toggle between your zoom options to make sure you are setup for success.
