Made for talking-head creators

Portrait + landscape,one take.

CraftCam records a portrait 9:16 and a landscape 16:9 video at the same moment. One tap gives you a vertical file for TikTok and Reels and a wide file for YouTube. Both come from the full sensor, not a crop, and stay perfectly in sync.

Isn't it just a crop?

Full sensor. Not a crop.

Most dual-format apps record vertical, then cut a 16:9 strip out of the middle to fake a wide shot, so everything to the left and right is lost. In Dual Frame, CraftCam records the camera's full 4:3 sensor frame and cuts both formats from it. The portrait uses the full height and the landscape uses the full width, so your wide shot really is wide.

What you actually get

One take. Every feed.

Film it once and walk away with the file every platform wants. No reshoots, no cropping in post and no second phone.

Post everywhere

Vertical and wide, done

A 9:16 for TikTok and Reels and a 16:9 for YouTube come out of the same tap. Takes are saved as a pair in your project, where you can review and trim both together and save them to Photos.

Made for talking-head videos. Your script scrolls beside the lens at your speed, so you can look into the camera and stop re-taking lines. The text never appears in the video.

Same moment, every screen

One scene. Framed twice.

Every take lands in your project as a matching pair: a vertical for the feed and a wide shot for the channel, from the same second.

Quick answers

The usual questions

Is the landscape just a crop of the portrait?

No. Dual Frame records the sensor's full 4:3 frame. The 9:16 uses its full height and the 16:9 uses its full width, so the landscape shows about a third more of the scene than a strip cut from a vertical video.

What resolution are the two files?

Each format is encoded as its own file. In HD you get 720×1280 portrait and 1280×720 landscape. With Pro 4K you get 2160×3840 and 3840×2160, at up to 60fps. HD uses H.264 for maximum compatibility, while 4K and HDR use HEVC.

Which iPhones are supported?

CraftCam runs on iPhone with iOS 26.6 or later. Dual Frame works on every supported iPhone. Dual Lens needs an Ultra Wide camera, and both Dual Lens and Front & Back need an iPhone that can run two cameras at once. The app greys out any mode your phone can't run.

Is there a watermark?

Never, on any plan, free included.

What happens after my 5 free takes?

Everything you've recorded stays in the app and in Photos. To keep recording, choose Annual, Monthly or Lifetime. All three unlock the same features.

Will I lose a take if something goes wrong?

CraftCam writes your video as you record. If the app closes unexpectedly, it recovers the usable clips the next time it opens. If your phone gets too hot, it saves the recording and pauses the camera until it cools down.

Does the teleprompter show up in my video?

No. The script is only on your screen and is never recorded.

A note from the maker

Hi, I'm Lucas. I made CraftCam for my wife.

She makes videos, and every one had to be filmed twice: vertical for TikTok and Reels, then again horizontal for YouTube. Same script, same light, twice the work.

So I built her a camera that does both at once. CraftCam records both formats from the full sensor in a single take, with a teleprompter right by the lens so she can stop re-recording her lines.

Now it's here for you too, with no account, no ads and no tracking. If something doesn't work, or you have an idea, email me. I read every message.
