SweetSuiteMusic Camera turns your iPhone into a live camera for SweetSuiteMusic, the multi-camera performance studio for Mac. Pair your phone to your Mac in seconds by scanning the QR code shown in SweetSuiteMusic. Your phone instantly becomes another camera angle for your performance — wide shot, close-up, overhead, or wherever you point it. SweetSuiteMusic on your Mac handles the rest: recording synchronized with your Logic Pro or GarageBand audio, template-driven multi-angle editing, and ready-to-post social clips. WHAT IT DOES • Pair instantly via QR code — no account, no cloud, just your local Wi-Fi • Record HD video on your phone while your Mac records the music • Uploads the take to your Mac when you stop, and keeps it safe until the Mac confirms it arrived • Reconnects to the last Mac you paired with, so you're not scanning every session • Share the pairing QR with another phone in the room — no need to walk back to the Mac • Dark UI so screen glow doesn't bleed into your shot WHAT IT DOESN'T DO • Send video to any server we run — recordings go over your local Wi-Fi to your own Mac and nowhere else • Collect analytics or personal data • Require an account REQUIREMENTS • A Mac running SweetSuiteMusic (sweetsuitemusic.com) • Both devices on the same Wi-Fi network (or the Mac's Venue Wi-Fi hotspot) • Camera and microphone permission on this phone This is a companion app — it does nothing on its own. Get SweetSuiteMusic for Mac at sweetsuitemusic.com.
