Black Screen Camera vs ScreenDuo

What is Black Screen Camera? Black Screen Camera is a privacy‑first recorder that turns the preview black while keeping a clear REC indicator and timer. You stay in control and everyone can see when recording is active. ### Why users love it - **Private preview:** The screen goes black during recording for discretion. - **Always visible REC:** Clear in‑app indicator and timer. - **Ready to record controls:** Quickly set quality, duration, audio, and save location. - **Front/back toggle:** Switch cameras in one tap. - **In‑app gallery:** Keep recordings inside the app or save to Photos. - **Gallery lock:** Face ID with optional passcode. ### Key features - **Quality presets:** 480p, 720p, 1080p, 4K (device dependent) - **Custom limit:** Pick hours and minutes with a rolling picker - **Audio toggle:** Record with or without microphone - **Save location:** Store in‑app or save to Photos ### Privacy, simply No ads. No trackers. Your recordings stay on your device unless you choose to share or save to Photos.

Record your screen and your face as two separate layers you can still edit afterwards. Most recorders burn the camera bubble permanently into the video. ScreenDuo keeps the screen, the camera and your narration as independent tracks, so you can move, resize and re-layout them long after you stopped recording.
