One take. Two videos: portrait 9:16 and landscape 16:9. Film your vlog, follow your script and add automatic captions in one place. Vlog Dual turns one camera capture into 9:16 and 16:9 versions, so the same story can work in both formats. Capture photos or video, check both views and shape your edit on iPhone or iPad. ONE TAKE, TWO FORMATS Preview portrait and landscape side by side or in picture-in-picture. Choose your main view, set a grid or countdown, and pause and resume video recording when you need a moment. STAY ON SCRIPT Read from the built-in teleprompter while filming. Adjust text size, scroll speed, position and mirroring. Your script stays on the screen and out of the recording. MAKE THE EDIT YOURS Trim and split clips, combine recordings from your library, add text and music, and choose from 56 filters. Use undo and redo while refining your project. FILTERS, ADJUSTMENTS AND BEAUTY Explore 56 filters with adjustable strength, seven manual adjustments and six beauty controls in the camera and editor. Fine-tune brightness, blur, softness, glow, grain, saturation and temperature; adjust smoothing, whitening, face slimming, eye size, lipstick and blush. Original, 3 filters, all 7 adjustments, smoothing and whitening are free. Pro unlocks 53 filters, face slimming, bigger eyes, lipstick and blush. All effects can be previewed for free and are processed on your device. Edit photos with the same filters, adjustments and beauty tools. Saving edited photos to the in-app library is free. Saving edited photos to Photos or sharing them requires Pro. Unedited photos or photos fully restored to the original can be saved and shared for free. CAPTIONS ON YOUR DEVICE Generate captions with supported on-device speech recognition. Review the words, adjust timing and choose caption styles and word animations. Choose a supported recognition language and regenerate captions when needed. EXPORT BOTH VERSIONS Save separate portrait and landscape videos. Choose 1080p, 2K or 4K export, with H.264 or HEVC options, then save to Photos or use the system share sheet. YOUR WORK, CLOSE AT HAND Keep projects on your device or record to a selected external-drive folder on compatible hardware. Choose from 17 interface languages in Settings or follow your system language. For iPhone and iPad running iOS 17 or later. Capture quality, HDR, caption recognition and external-drive support depend on your device, system and available language resources. Automatic captions, all text and caption styles, and animations are free to use. The editor’s Save button saves your edited project and its portrait and landscape videos to your library for free, without automatically saving them to Photos. Pro is required to save edited videos from your library to Photos or share them, and to use 2K/4K, 60 FPS or HDR output on supported devices. Unedited 1080p/30 FPS/SDR videos can be saved and shared for free. Available plans and prices are shown before purchase.

Add captions to your videos, right on your iPhone. Captionry turns speech into captions on your device, lets you edit every line, and exports without a watermark. No account. Your video and audio stay on your phone unless you create a share link. • Automatic captions, made on your device • Two caption lines in any languages, shown in the preview and burned into the export • A timeline editor: split, move and restyle captions; 20 templates, 15 fonts, outline, background and karaoke highlight • Import up to 10 clips, reorder and trim them, and caption the combined video • Names & terms and caption rules, so names are written the way you want • Edit captions in another app with SRT or WebVTT files, then import them with a preview of every change • My Videos: your exported videos, listed and ready to share Optional AI fixes speech-to-text mistakes and translates your caption lines. Captionry asks once before you start; only caption text is sent, never video or audio, and you can switch it off in Settings. It includes 15 free video minutes each month; an optional subscription gives more. Without AI, translation runs on your iPhone. Everything else stays free.
