I built DuoCam to capture video from both cameras at the same time. Hoot!

@ekurutepe There are some other apps available which do offer the same feature, why did you decide to build something new?

@plaetzchen the functionality just became available with iOS 13. So all similar apps are few weeks old.
Philip Brechler
@ekurutepe I see, fingers crossed for your approach!

@plaetzchen @ekurutepe Actually made this in 2012 overcoming lots of limitations back then LOL... Really excited to play with yours! https://apps.apple.com/us/app/si...

@plaetzchen @danielhitome yeah this was possible to hack for photos but multi camera video capture is very recent.

Who remembers FrontBack? Love this!

@erayberger1 Thanks Eray! Appreciate all feedback!

does it consume a lot of my battery power? and thanks for building it!

@adiatlov to be honest I have not done extensive battery testing since I image most of the videos take would be quite short but I can imagine that powering two cameras at the same time, mixing the video streams in real-time and then encoding the final output to a video file can be quite power hungry. I'll do a test and let you know.

Such an engaging new form of content, nice work.

@xavierlowmiller oh yes! Please share the video when you do! 😄

@ekurutepe Will do! Seems like my 7 won't do it, so I'll have to wait for my 11 to arrive...

@xavierlowmiller yes. Multicam is only available on recent iPhones (2018 or later)

Really like to humble approach on monetising it and am curious how well this works. Like the simplicity of usage, no handbook required.

@plaetzchen Thanks Philip. The app is completely free and comes with all features/no limitations. Users can choose to "feed the owl" and purchase a small In-App purchase to remove the watermark on the videos. It is an experiment.

@xjki thanks Jurgis!

Congrats on shipping another great app! Cool logo.

Love the idea. Also gotta day that your demo is one of the best you can do. Just missing a loop in there :)

@philippberner it wasn’t the right weather for a loop 😉
David Abravanel
great, clean, does what it says on the tin - quality I've come to expect from you! 🙌
David Abravanel
one quick request though. I assume this is a hardware issue, but is there any way to port this for iPhone X?
Engin Kurutepe
Maker
@dabravanel thanks 🙏
Engin Kurutepe
Maker
@dabravanel no. Apple says iPhone X cannot provide enough power to the camera submodule to power two cameras at the same time.
Engin Kurutepe
Maker
@dabravanel I wish it were otherwise. Easily double the addressable market.

Looking forward to using this, though the website has samples of two places you're highly recommended not to fiddle with a phone.

@sarjun the car video was done on a mount. The plane video was handheld. Please do not operate DuoCam where it's unsafe or forbidden to do so. 😀

I was just recently looking for a camera and I can tell you that this is just an incredible thing that can give a huge amount of emotions. I bought myself a camera on https://pxlmag.com/db/camera-rev... for work, I wanted to become a professional photographer, and it comes out pretty good for me, the pictures are high-quality, the people who watched they say that I have talent, but, nevertheless, I just now thought about how to go, say, to the pro level and try to sell my services.
