CreatorCam vs SideReader

Stop choosing between portrait and landscape. CreatorCam records both simultaneously — one tap, two perfectly synced video files saved directly to your Photos library. Whether you're filming for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube, or a client project, you shouldn't have to shoot twice or crop later and lose quality. CreatorCam uses your iPhone's dual camera system to capture full-resolution portrait (9:16) and landscape (16:9) video at the same time, from the same moment, with matching color and exposure. DUAL-CAMERA RECORDING Record simultaneous portrait and landscape video using your iPhone's wide and ultra-wide lenses. Both files are full resolution — not crops of each other. SINGLE-CAMERA MODE Switch to single-lens recording with full front camera support. Perfect for talking-head content, interviews, and selfie-style video. PROFESSIONAL QUALITY - 4K and 1080p resolution - 24, 30, and 60 fps frame rates - 2x optical zoom - Tap-to-focus on any object - MOV and MP4 file format options - GPU-accelerated processing pipeline DESIGNED FOR CREATORS - Real-time floating preview so you can frame both formats while recording - Countdown timer (3s / 10s) for hands-free start - Torch control for low-light rear camera recording - Keeps recording through incoming calls — never lose a take - Files save instantly to your Photos library — no export step, no separate app folder BUILT WITH CARE - No ads, no tracking, no accounts - No subscriptions — pay once, own it forever - Your footage never leaves your device CreatorCam is built by a creator who was tired of filming everything twice. Every feature exists because it solves a real problem in real content workflows. Requires iPhone XS or newer with dual rear cameras for dual-lens mode. Single-camera mode works on all supported iPhones.

You’re an actor. Or a content creator. Or a journalist. Or maybe you’re just someone who has something to say and would really, really like the words to stay in front of your eyes while you say it. And to get portrait and landscape videos from one take, instantly. Maybe you’re rehearsing an audition. Recording a reporting segment. Filming a video essay. Making content for social media. Or trying to remember your next line without looking six feet below the camera. That’s why I made SideReader. SideReader brings your script, teleprompter, camera, rehearsal tools, and takes together in one focused creative studio. And it solves another problem I kept running into: needing the same performance in portrait and landscape. One for TikTok, Reels, or Shorts. Another for YouTube, a presentation, an edit, or whatever comes next. Record once. Deliver twice. YOUR SCRIPT, RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU Write or import a script, then keep it in front of you while you rehearse or record. Adjust the reading experience to your pace, so you can spend less time fighting the screen and more time delivering the words. REHEARSE AT YOUR PACE Sometimes you’re not ready to hit Record. That’s fine. Work through the script, find your rhythm, get comfortable with the material, and start filming when you’re ready. TWO VIDEOS, ONE PERFORMANCE Dual Capture makes portrait and landscape videos together while you record. Tap Stop and both files finish without a second render, ready to review, save, or share in moments. No second take just because another platform wants a different shape. YOUR STUDIO, ON YOUR WRIST The new Apple Watch companion works as a remote for your paired iPhone or iPad. Start and stop recording, switch cameras, adjust zoom, choose scripts, control rehearsals, and check recording status from your wrist. HIGH-QUALITY VIDEO On supported devices and configurations, SideReader can capture at up to 4K and 60 FPS. Because something made for creators should take the actual camera part seriously, too. YOUR TAKES ARE YOURS Review your takes, keep the ones you love, and share them when you choose. Your scripts and recordings stay on your device unless you choose to export or share them. Your performance doesn’t need a trip through somebody else’s server just to belong to you. Settings also gives you control over product analytics and optional advertising measurement. WHY I BUILT SIDEREADER I’m an actor, and I wanted something that felt surprisingly difficult to find: a teleprompter and camera simple enough to disappear while I was using them, but powerful enough to keep up with how I actually create. I wanted my script in front of me. I wanted to rehearse. I wanted great-quality video. I wanted portrait and landscape versions without recording the same performance twice. And I didn’t want the app itself to become the production. So I built SideReader. It has taken plenty of testing, redesigns, strange little discoveries, major overhauls, and “okay, we need to rethink this entire thing” moments. I’m proud to put this bigger, faster creative studio in your hands, and I’m excited to keep improving it with the people who use it. So rehearse the audition. Record the story. Make the video. Deliver the report. Say the thing. Hopefully with SideReader by Clapps, with love from Los Angeles
