React to a video, commentate on it, or explain it: record yourself over any clip, photo or set of slides, and pause, scrub back or draw on it without ever stopping the take. Or talk straight to camera with a teleprompter scrolling your script. Reacts is a facecam recorder and video editor for anyone who talks over video: reaction creators, commentators, experts, coaches, teachers and tutorial makers. Record it, caption it and edit it in one app. REACT & COMMENTATE - Play a video or photo and record your face beside it, over it, or anywhere you like - Pause and scrub the clip while recording: freeze on the moment, replay it, talk over it - Pause the clip hands-free with your headphones' button or a keyboard's Space bar - Draw on screen mid-take in six colors, and clear it with a tap - Mute the clip while you talk, or keep it under your voice - Pause your own take with the shutter, delete the last bit if you fluffed it, and carry on. It all ends up as one clip EXPLAIN & TEACH - Line up several photos, screenshots or clips as slides, then step through them while you talk - Reorder, add or remove slides right on the camera screen - Circle the detail that matters with the pen, freeze the frame, rewind and go again - Put yourself in front of your material with Green Screen. No green screen needed, and the background moves where you want it TELEPROMPTER - Write or paste a script and it scrolls over the camera while you record - Keep a library of scripts and pick one each time you record AUTO CAPTIONS - Finish a take and Reacts offers to caption it: one tap and every word lands on the timeline, in sync - Accurate speech recognition in 40+ languages, or let it detect the language for you - Various styles to choose from - Reacts sends the clip's audio, never the video, to a speech recognition service.

Cutover

Cutover films with both iPhone cameras at once and finishes the edit for you — entirely on the device. FILM IT • Dual — record the back camera and yourself at the same time, with your face floating anywhere on the frame. Move it, resize it, rotate it while you film. • React — load any video and film yourself over it, cut out of your background. • Front and back single-camera takes, with live captions as you talk. CUT YOURSELF OUT Real person segmentation removes your background live — a green screen with no green screen. You see it while filming, and the export re-renders it at full quality. POINT AT THINGS Turn on Point and touch the frame like a mouse. Your finger leaves a cursor on the recording, so people can follow what you are explaining. FINISH IT WITH A PIPELINE Build a recipe once and run it on every take: • Auto Captions — on-device transcription with word-level timing • Trim Silence — cuts dead air and filler words • Beep Words — mutes anything you name • Auto Reframe — recrops to 9:16, 1:1 or 16:9 • Color Look, Music Bed with ducking, Brand Kit intro, logo and outro • Review — pause and approve before anything exports A Review step stops the run so you can check the result before it ships. EVERYTHING STAYS ON YOUR IPHONE Capture, cutout, captions and colour all run on-device. Your recordings are never uploaded — there is no server to upload them to. Export straight to Photos, or download to a computer over your own Wi-Fi. FREE Unlimited recording. Dual and React up to 1080p, green-screen cutout, live captions, three looks, one pipeline of up to four steps, export with a watermark. CUTOVER PRO Up to 4K, no watermark, unlimited pipelines and steps, the full look pack, Trim Silence and Beep Words, and Wi-Fi export to a computer. Monthly or yearly, or a one-time Lifetime unlock. Best on iPhone 15 Pro and newer. On iPhone 14 and standard 15, dual high-resolution capture may run slower or at reduced quality — the app warns you first.
