Shoot wide. Post tall. PrimoRec is a camera for creators. Record once in 16:9 and the app also gives you a 9:16 vertical video that keeps the person in frame, ready for Reels, TikTok and Shorts. Everything is processed on your iPhone, with no uploads and no account. ONE TAKE, TWO VIDEOS β’ The vertical makes itself: the app finds the person and moves a 9:16 frame along with them, smoothly. β’ Tap the ring on anyone to choose who to follow, even mid-take. β’ HD or 4K, from 24 to 120 fps, in HEVC or H.264, with the stabilization you choose. β’ A monitor-style viewfinder: lens, format, shutter, ISO, white balance, focus, level, grid, audio meter and space left. A BUILT-IN TELEPROMPTER β’ Your script sits right below the lens, at your pace or following your voice. β’ Countdown, adjustable speed and as many saved scripts as you like. A FULL CAMERA β’ Photos in HEIF or JPEG. A landscape photo also gets a 9:16 copy centred on the person, straight into Photos. β’ Vlog: double tap anywhere to switch between front and back without stopping the recording. β’ Slow motion at 120 or 240 fps, with the sound slowed down or off. β’ Timelapse with an Auto interval, exposure and focus held still so it doesn't flicker. REAL CONTROL β’ Shutter in fractions or degrees, ISO, white balance in kelvin and manual focus, each on its own dial, with haptic ticks. β’ Apple Log and 10-bit HDR, with a Rec.709 preview while you record. β’ ProRes, from Proxy to HQ, on iPhones that record ProRes. β’ Open Gate: the whole sensor, for a sharper vertical. β’ Live peaking, zebras and histogram. MORE β’ Dual: front and back cameras together on iPhones that can; drag the other camera's window and the finished video follows. Or record a reaction over one of your videos. β’ Follow any object: touch and hold a product, a pet or a ball. β’ Record straight to a USB-C SSD or thumb drive, and use external microphones, wired, USB or wireless. β’ The Camera Control and volume buttons take the shot, or the volume buttons zoom, as you prefer. PRIVACY Your videos never leave your iPhone. No account, no ads, no trackers and no server. FREE AND PRO Free forever: recording has no limit, in every mode. The vertical that follows the person is free for one video a day, no ads. Takes under 10 seconds don't count. Pro is a one-time purchase, no subscription: unlimited Follow, teleprompter, manual control, Apple Log, ProRes, Open Gate, Cinematic, Dual, timelapse intervals and long shutter, 48 MP and ProRAW photos, and more. Family Sharing included. Apple Log, ProRes, ProRAW, Open Gate, Dual, Vlog, Cinematic and 240 fps depend on your iPhone model and iOS version.
