Your view. Your reaction. One moment. Capture the scene in front of you and your reaction at the same time. Dual Camera brings your front and rear cameras together for photos and videos that tell both sides of the story. [TWO VIEWS, ONE STORY] The view from your trip and the smile it brings. The first bite and your first reaction. A group photo with the photographer in it, too. [FRAME IT YOUR WAY] Choose picture-in-picture (PiP) or a 50:50 split screen, side by side or top and bottom. Customize PiP shapes and borders to make the frame your own. [PHOTOS AND VIDEOS] Save a moment in a photo, or record its movement and sound in a video. Shoot with one camera or both. Keep capturing with Instant Save, and save your dual captures as a combined view or separate front and rear files. Dual capture requires a device that supports simultaneous front and rear camera use. Some iPad models support single-camera capture only. https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
