You no longer need to rotate your iPhone to capture a landscape shot. Sideways is a camera for capturing photos and video in 16:9, 4:3, or 1:1 while holding your iPhone comfortably in portrait. Frame the moment with a stable, natural one-handed grip. Key features β€’ Sideways mode Keep your portrait grip while capturing the selected output ratio. A bright guide shows the area that will be saved. β€’ Photos and video Capture photos at the maximum size supported by your device. Hold the shutter to record 1080p video, including audio when microphone access is allowed. β€’ 16:9, 4:3, and 1:1 ratios Choose a ratio for the scene. The same framing is applied to the guide, photos, and video. β€’ Full mode Save the full camera frame without the Sideways crop. β€’ Lens controls and pinch zoom On supported devices, compact controls let you select physical lenses. Pinch the viewfinder for continuous zoom. β€’ Framing tools Compose with a selected-ratio guide and an optional 3Γ—3 grid. β€’ Session gallery Review photos and videos captured during the current app session, play videos, and share individual items.
