Record once, post everywhere. One take saves up to 5 videos: the combined picture, a clean file from each camera, and 9:16, 16:9 and 1:1 versions for TikTok, Reels, Shorts and YouTube. Captions appear as you speak, Director cuts to whoever is talking, and Clips picks your best moments. Works on every iPhone from the 11. WHY CREATORS CHOOSE DUAL RECORDER • Both cameras, your way: one combined video, a clean video from each camera, or all three, from a single take. • Move, resize and reshape the picture-in-picture window while you record; every change lands in the file. • Captions written live on the phone while you talk, saved with the take, ready to burn in or share as SRT. • Read your script from the built-in teleprompter while the camera runs. DIRECTOR • The camera whose person is talking fills the frame, the other sits in the window, a split when both talk: cut live while you record, with the clean files kept for a re-cut. A two-person podcast that edits itself. • Clips: the editor finds the best 20 to 40 seconds of a take by sound, or by motion when nobody speaks, and saves them as 9:16 clips, captioned, ready to post. REACT AND DUET • Play any video from your library or a link in the frame and react in the window or the cut-out. • Duet: the clip on one side, you on the other, its sound ducked under your voice in the file. ONE TAKE, UP TO THREE VIDEOS • COMBINED: one video with the second camera in its window, as on screen. • SEPARATE: a clean video from each camera, no window, ready for your editing app, frame-aligned. • BOTH: the combined video plus the two clean videos. FOUR CAPTURE MODES • ME + VIEW: film yourself and what you see, together. • TWO ANGLES: wide and ultra-wide from the back camera, at once. • SINGLE: a fast one-camera recorder with the same controls. • REACT: a video fills the frame while you react, in the window or side by side. LAYOUTS AND CONTROLS • Window, over-under, side-by-side, diagonal or cut-out (green screen or none), chosen while you shoot. • Window shapes and video shapes 9:16, 16:9, 1:1 or 4:3. • 720p, 1080p and up to 4K (60 fps in Single mode), MP4 or MOV, torch, timer, grid, tap to focus, pinch to zoom. • Pause and resume a take, take a photo mid-take, manual exposure, nine looks previewed live. LIBRARY AND EDITOR • Trim, crop to any shape, rearrange a take into any layout from its clean files. • Captions: transcribe on the phone, correct any line, burn in or share as SRT. • Post to TikTok, Instagram Reels and Stories, YouTube Shorts or YouTube in the shape each wants. • Export to Photos: free in HD with a small Dual Recorder watermark, or full size with no watermark in PRO. PRIVACY FIRST Your videos, photos and captions are processed on your iPhone and never leave it unless you save or share them. No account, no ads. DUAL RECORDER PRO Recording, every layout, pause and resume, photos, the teleprompter, live captions, Duet, Clips, the editor and one saved setup are free, and so is exporting in HD with a small watermark.

About

Dual Camera

Features
Read full description

A dual camera recorder that captures two angles of the same moment at once. Most cameras make you choose. Point at what is happening, or point at yourself. Shoot portrait for one feed and landscape for another. This dual camera records both at the same time, in a single take, and hands you every file when you are done. THREE MODES • Front and back together — both cameras recording at once. You get the front video, the back video, and a combined picture of the two laid out the way you framed them. Keep all three, keep the separate angles, or keep only the composite. • Portrait and landscape together — one lens, two framings from the same shot. A vertical video for stories and reels, a landscape one for everywhere else, out of a single recording. No reshoots and no cropping after the fact. • One camera — for when you just want the camera. LAYOUTS YOU CONTROL Put the second camera in a floating window and drag it anywhere on screen. It records exactly where you left it. Resize it, switch it between portrait, landscape and square, or give it a round, square or star shape. Prefer an even split? Choose a horizontal split, a vertical split, or a diagonal cut across the frame. Whatever you see in the viewfinder is what lands in the file — the layout is not decided for you afterwards. TELEPROMPTER BUILT IN Write your script in the app or import a text file, choose the colour and size, and read it straight off the screen while you record. Change the scroll speed mid-take with a slider so the words keep pace with how you actually talk. Look at the lens instead of your notes and get the perfect take now, rather than after the fifth attempt. REAL DIGITAL CAMERA CONTROL • Resolution: 720p, 1080p or 4K • Frame rate: 24, 30, 60 or 120 fps • Ratios: 9:16, 3:4 and 1:1, framed live before you shoot • Zoom: 0.5x, 1x and 2x, and you can zoom while recording • Flash and video light, auto or always on • Self-timer, grid guides and live photos • Mirror the front camera, or leave it as the lens sees it Switch mode, ratio or lens whenever you like. The viewfinder always shows the current framing. Change a ratio and the preview changes with it, so what you compose is what you capture. EVERYTHING IN ONE PLACE Your captures land in the app's own library, newest first, with thumbnails for videos as well as photos. Play them back, share them, select multiple files and delete what you do not need. Copies go to your photo library too, so nothing is trapped here and nothing quietly fills your storage without you knowing. MADE FOR SOCIAL VIDEO Reaction videos, podcast clips, unboxings, walkthroughs, travel diaries, day-in-the-life content, tutorials. Anything where the thing you are filming and your face both matter. Capture the reaction and the reason for it in one recording, then share the angle each social media platform wants — vertical for one, landscape for the next, both from the same take. PRIVACY Your recordings stay on your device. There is no account to create and nothing is uploaded to be processed. Open the app and shoot. PREMIUM Free use includes a set number of photos and a set amount of recording time in each period, which resets on its own. A premium subscription removes the limits and unlocks unlimited photos and unlimited recording. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Payment is charged to your account at confirmation of purchase. Manage or cancel a subscription in your account settings after purchase. We don't collect any face data for save photos to the server. This app is completely offline. Anything captures in the app, stays on your device. Privacy Policy: https://fatmachines.com/privacy Terms: https://fatmachines.com/terms
