Clair is a camera app designed for dual-perspective capture. It lets you capture two different views in the same frame: the main view records the world in front of you, while a floating window shows another moment happening at the same time. Whether you’re traveling, taking selfies, watching a performance, exploring a new place, or capturing everyday fun, Clair helps every story be seen from more than one angle. You can freely choose the front or rear camera as the main view, and place the other camera inside a movable floating window. The main view and floating window can also be switched, giving you more freedom to compose every shot. Clair also supports portrait cutout in the floating window. When enabled, the subject is kept while the background becomes transparent, allowing the person to blend naturally into the main view. It’s perfect for playful perspective shots and creative compositions. For shooting, Clair supports photos, videos, and Live Photos, with exposure adjustment, video resolution and frame rate options, grid lines, a level, and volume-button shutter control. After shooting, your work can be saved to the system Photos app or kept only inside Clair. When you need separate materials for editing, Clair can also save the Picture-in-Picture result, the main view, and the floating window view at the same time.
