DualCam

Record video and take photos with both iPhone cameras at the same time. DualCam combines the front and rear views into one file while you shoot, so there is nothing to edit or stitch together afterwards. LAYOUTS - Picture in picture: the small window can be dragged anywhere in the frame, not just parked in a corner. Let go near an edge and it snaps into alignment. Switch it between a circle and a rounded square. - Split top and bottom - Split left and right Change the layout in the middle of a recording and the frame follows instantly. No need to stop and shoot again. PHOTOS FROM BOTH CAMERAS One press of the shutter captures both cameras and saves a single photo, already composed, in exactly the layout you see on screen. What you frame is what you get. WHILE YOU SHOOT - Live filters, applied as you record - Pinch to zoom, tap to focus - Exposure adjustment - Countdown before recording starts - 9:16 or full screen aspect ratio - Flashlight, grid, mute GOOD FOR Reaction videos, travel and food vlogs, interviews and two-sided conversations, tutorials where your face and your hands both matter, and moments where the person filming belongs in the shot. PRIVACY Everything stays on your device. No account, no sign-up, nothing uploaded. What you shoot goes straight to your photo library. REQUIREMENTS DualCam uses the multi-camera hardware in iPhone XS and later. Earlier iPhones cannot run both cameras at once.
