Live2play turns your iPhone into a camera built for playing, not for filming. Open it and the camera is already live, vertical and in focus. One big button starts the take. When you stop, the clip is already in your Photos. Nothing stands between the idea and the record button — because inspiration leaves while you fiddle with settings. ONE-TAP REEL • Vertical camera, live the moment the app opens. • One button = start/stop. Clips auto-save to their own album. • Tap anywhere to focus and meter there, lock exposure, nudge EV. • Start a take from a hardware button or a Siri shortcut. THE SOUND YOU ACTUALLY WANT • Choose your input: built-in mic, a USB-C interface, or Bluetooth. • Or send a clean master mix from your computer over WiFi and record that instead of room noise — no more phone-mic mush over a good performance. • Other apps keep playing, so you can monitor while you record. YOUR BODY BECOMES THE INSTRUMENT • Body, hand and face tracking runs entirely on the device and draws a live overlay on top of you. • Map your movement to the built-in synth and play it by moving. • Or send gesture MIDI to your computer over the local network and drive your own rig. LOOPS AND COLLAGE • Layer takes into a synced loop grid — in phase, with time-stretch. • Arrange the loops as a collage and burn the result into the recording. GO LIVE • Push the take straight to YouTube Live, or any RTMP/RTMPS server you point it at. EDIT ON THE PHONE • Trim, merge and re-render your clips without leaving the app. PRIVACY No account, no sign-up, no ads, no analytics. Camera frames are analysed on your iPhone and are never uploaded. Nothing leaves the device unless you start a live stream to a server you chose yourself. Requires iPhone with iOS 17 or later.

ONANY is an ad-free, easy-to-use collage maker for photos, Live Photos, and videos. Choose 1–9 photos, Live Photos, or videos, then switch between flexible layouts and canvas ratios. Reorder, crop, rotate, resize, and reposition every item. Fine-tune spacing, corners, margins, and backgrounds to give every frame its own rhythm. The new media picker groups photos, Live Photos, videos, and screenshots while keeping your selection order clear. If an iCloud item is not yet on your device, ONANY shows its download status and real progress before editing begins. You can also choose a photo of a person or pet and cut it out on your device. Each subject can be moved, resized, rotated, layered, shadowed, and outlined independently. Outline styles include solid, dashed, dotted, and glow, with controls for width, color, edge, and density. Export your finished work as a still image, Live Photo, or video directly to Photos. Media processing and subject detection happen entirely on your device.
