**ReactMe – Reaction Videos** Hand your phone to a friend. Tell them to film something. While they're looking through the rear camera, ReactMe is recording their face too. When it's over, you get both cameras in one perfectly synced video — what they filmed, and their genuine reaction as it happened. **HOW IT WORKS** Drop a dance move, land a trick, or just do something worth filming — hand them your phone and ReactMe captures their face watching it happen. Open ReactMe and hand it over. The screen shows the rear-camera — while they record you, the front cam also catches their reaction. **LAYOUTS** - Overlay — floating, resizable window - Side by Side — both cameras split-screen, vertical or horizontal - Reaction Only — just the face, full screen All layouts export in 9:16 (TikTok, Reels, Shorts) or 16:9 (YouTube, landscape). **FEATURES** - Dual-camera recording — front and rear captured simultaneously - Private library — stays on your device, never uploaded - Face guidance — keeps the reaction centered in frame - Trim tool — cut to the best moment before you export - Share to TikTok, Instagram, iMessage, WhatsApp, and more **REACTME PRO — $1.99** One purchase.
