Record once. Get two videos — one portrait and one landscape. AspectTake captures the same moment in vertical 9:16 and horizontal 16:9, giving you two separate video files from a single recording. Frame both outputs live, press Record, and create footage for different screens without repeating the take. ONE TAKE, TWO FORMATS • Record portrait and landscape video at the same time • Receive two separate, synchronized video files • Preview both compositions while you record • Move the landscape preview anywhere on the screen • Tuck the preview against either edge when you need a clear view • Save both videos directly to Photos • Keep recordings inside AspectTake when Photos access is unavailable CAPTURE WITH CONFIDENCE Choose from the resolutions and frame rates supported by your iPhone, including up to 4K and 24, 30, or 60 fps on compatible devices. See an estimated recording size before you begin, enable the optional framing grid, use the flashlight when supported, and keep both formats composed throughout the take. MADE FOR EVERY SCREEN Create a vertical version for short-form feeds, stories, mobile viewing, and social content. At the same time, capture a horizontal version for widescreen video, websites, presentations, interviews, courses, events, and editing workflows. PREMIUM AND PRIVATE AspectTake is a focused camera with no account, no advertisements, and no subscription. Video processing takes place on your iPhone, and your recordings remain under your control. Buy it once. Record whenever you need it. Supported resolutions, frame rates, camera lenses, flashlight modes, and other capture options depend on the capabilities of your iPhone and the selected recording configuration. ----- Privacy Policy: https://aspecttake.nixmio.com/privacy-policy ToS: https://aspecttake.nixmio.com/terms

A little cleanup. Every day. Photo Syft helps you clean up your photo library a day at a time. Revisit photos and videos from this date in past years, keep what you want, and review old receipts, blurry shots, and extras before deleting. Clearing out what you don't need may help reduce your cloud storage costs. Photo Syft works on your device without uploading your photos or sending usage analytics. Try three cleanup dates free, then pay once for permanent access. No subscription. A day at a time Browse by year or pick another date in the calendar. Use the grid or go one by one. Zoom in, compare photos side by side, and check your selection before deleting. Favorites need an extra confirmation. Set a daily reminder if it helps. The Home Screen widget shows your weekly activity. Photo Syft shows photos and videos from past years; current-year items won't appear. One payment. No subscription. Try three dates from your photo library free, with no time limit. A date counts once after you successfully delete something. Browsing and keeping photos don't count. After that, pay once for permanent access to all features. There's no automatic charge. Existing owners keep full access. Before you buy more cloud storage Clear out photos you don't need before deciding to upgrade your plan. Track deleted items and their estimated size. Your total usage and storage plan determine whether you can lower your bill. Photo Syft doesn't change your plan. Privacy first Photo Syft doesn't upload your photos or send usage analytics. Your cleanup progress stays on your device. You don't need a Photo Syft account, and there are no ads. Apple handles purchases and verifies access. With selected-photo access, you'll only see the items you've allowed. If you use iCloud Photos, deletions also sync to iCloud and your other devices. Apple Photos and Recently Deleted determine recovery and when space becomes available. Photo Syft doesn't have a separate undo.
