MyTwinLens
Read full descriptionHide full description
You. In the shot. Finally. MyTwinLens mirrors one iPhone's camera onto another, so you can shoot photos and video from a distance. Set one iPhone down as your Lens. Hold the other as your Mirror. See exactly what the Lens sees in real time, then shoot from anywhere. No tripod timers. No asking strangers. No blurry guesswork. Just perfectly framed photos and video, every time. HOW IT WORKS Open MyTwinLens on both iPhones. One becomes the Lens, the other your Mirror. They connect in seconds with no internet needed. Watch the live viewfinder on your Mirror and tap to shoot from any distance. LIVE VIEWFINDER See what the Lens sees on your Mirror in real time. HD streaming up to 30 FPS at under 200ms latency. Frame yourself perfectly before you shoot. REMOTE SHUTTER Fire the camera from across the room or across the street. One tap on the Mirror triggers the Lens instantly. VIDEO, SLO-MO AND TIME-LAPSE Record video, slo-mo, or time-lapse on the Lens, all driven from your Mirror. Start and stop recording remotely, and keep watching the live viewfinder the whole time you are rolling. Both devices show a recording indicator with elapsed time. Standard video records with sound, at your iPhone's own quality. Recordings are kept on the Lens. FULL QUALITY PHOTOS The Lens captures every shot at full sensor resolution in HEIF and keeps the original. The live stream is only for framing, so it never touches the file you keep. INSTANT PREVIEW Every shot lands on your Mirror the moment you take it, as a preview quality copy. Check it, then reshoot or move on, without walking back to the Lens. INTERVAL SHOOTING Set the Lens to fire every few seconds, for a set number of shots or continuously. The flash pulses just before each frame, so whoever is posing knows exactly when the shot lands. SHUTTER TIMER Set a 3, 5, 7, or 10 second countdown for photos. It appears on both devices so you know exactly when to pose. WHERE YOUR SHOTS GO The full quality photo stays on the Lens. The Mirror keeps the preview copy, so the shot is already on the device in your hand. Each iPhone decides for itself whether to save. Video stays on the Lens. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your iPhones connect directly over WiFi and Bluetooth, with no server, no cloud, and no account. No internet needed to shoot, and your photos never leave your devices. No ads. No tracking. BUILT FOR Solo travelers who want to be in their own photos. Content creators shooting without a crew. Real estate pros framing exteriors from the perfect angle. Families who want everyone in the shot. Anyone with two iPhones and no one to hold the camera. Set up in 15 seconds. Shoot from 200 feet. Look professional. Note: MyTwinLens requires two iPhones to work. One acts as the Lens and the other as the Mirror.

PeekScope
Read full descriptionHide full description
PeekScope is a camera viewer for iPhone and iPad. Use it with a compatible local Wi-Fi camera, or connect a USB Video Class (UVC) camera to a supported USB-C iPad. WI-FI ON IPHONE AND IPAD Join the camera's Wi-Fi network and enter its local IP address or exact HTTP or HTTPS JPEG/MJPEG stream URL. PeekScope tries common stream paths when you enter only an IP address. You can also scan a QR code that contains the stream address. A Wi-Fi password or manufacturer pairing code alone does not provide a video stream. USB ON SUPPORTED IPADS Connect a compatible UVC camera to a supported USB-C iPad. Generic USB camera capture is not available in PeekScope on iPhone. USB compatibility varies with the camera, cable, hub, video format, and power supply. VIEW AND CAPTURE ⢠Watch a live view with rotate, mirror, zoom, freeze, and fill/fit controls. ⢠Save photos for free to a PeekScope album in Photos. ⢠Unlock video recording for both camera modes with one non-consumable purchase. There is no subscription. ⢠Browse, share, and delete your captures in the built-in gallery. ⢠In USB mode, choose from the video formats your camera reports. Free USB viewing is limited to standard definition; one rewarded ad can unlock higher resolutions and hide banners for 24 hours. COMPATIBILITY PeekScope needs iOS or iPadOS 17 or later. Wi-Fi mode works only with cameras that expose a reachable local JPEG snapshot or MJPEG stream. Direct Bluetooth video, RTSP, HLS, and proprietary pairing protocols are not supported. An external camera is sold separately, and compatibility is not guaranteed for every camera model. PRIVACY The camera feed and captures stay on your device; PeekScope does not upload them to AGM Apps. The built-in camera is used only if you choose to scan a QR code. Third-party ad services may process device and network information to provide and measure ads, subject to your choices and our Privacy Policy. Need help?
