iPhone XS, XS Max, XR and every iPhone since, on iOS 17 or later. Recording both cameras at once needs hardware that older iPhones do not have; on those, DualCam shows "This iPhone can't use both cameras at once".

DualCam is for iPhone only and records in portrait. There is no iPad or Android version.

In the Photos app. When you stop recording, DualCam saves the video to your Photos library and shows "Saved to Photos ✓". Nothing is kept inside the app or anywhere else.

In the Filter panel, choose where the filter goes: Both, or just one view. The view names follow the layout — Big / Small, Top / Bottom or Left / Right. Putting a filter on one view only is free.

Two different filters on the two views at the same time (say Mono on top, Warm on the bottom) needs Pro Yearly or Pro Lifetime; no single pack includes it.

Drag it — it snaps to the nearest corner. Pinch to resize it. Double-tap to cycle Small, Medium and Large. Tap to swap which camera is in the small frame.

Ratios 9:16, 3:4, 4:5, 1:1 and 16:9 are all free. HD 720p and Full HD 1080p at 30fps are free; 4K (back camera), or 60fps at 1080p, come with Pro or the 4K & 60fps pack.

Not every iPhone can run both cameras at every resolution and frame rate. If a combination is not possible on your model, DualCam tells you so before you record.

Running two cameras at once is hard work for any iPhone. DualCam warns you when the phone is getting hot — when it does, stop for a short break. Lower resolution and 30fps generate less heat than 4K or 60fps.

Open Settings › DualCam and turn on Camera. DualCam also has an "Open Settings" button on its screen.

The microphone is optional, so DualCam records without sound if access was declined. Turn on Microphone in Settings › DualCam.

DualCam needs permission to add videos to Photos. In Settings › DualCam › Photos, choose Add Photos Only. DualCam only ever adds; it cannot see the photos already in your library.

Six more layouts (Side by side, Circle, Heart, Polaroid, Diagonal, Strip), ten more filters, Strong skin smoothing, frame colors (Black, Yellow, Blue, Red, Green and a custom color picker), 4K from the back camera, 60fps at 1080p, and two different filters on the two views at once.

You can try every Pro feature in the preview for free. Recording with one needs Pro, or the pack that covers it.

Only if you choose that. The Pro screen offers three options:

• Pro Yearly — everything in Pro, an auto-renewable subscription billed once a year.
• Pro Lifetime — everything in Pro, paid once. Nothing renews.
• Single packs — paid once, each unlocking one group: Film Pack (Instant, Transfer, Process, Chrome), Retro Pack (Sepia, Vintage, Dreamy, Pixel), B&W Pack (Noir, Tonal), Cute Layouts (Heart, Circle, Polaroid), More Layouts (Side by side, Diagonal, Strip), 4K & 60fps, Strong smoothing, or Frame colors (5 colors + custom picker). Using two different filters on the two views at once is part of Pro only — no pack includes it.

The App Store shows the price in your currency before you confirm. There is no free trial (the preview is the trial), and no ads in any version.

On your iPhone, open Settings › your name (Apple Account) › Subscriptions, choose DualCam and tap Cancel Subscription. Do it at least 24 hours before the renewal date to avoid the next charge. You keep Pro until the end of the year you have paid for. Deleting the app does not cancel the subscription.

You can buy Pro Yearly or Pro Lifetime at any time, but to be straight with you: a pack you already own is not credited toward Pro, and Apple does not pro-rate between them. The pack's price is not taken off Pro. If you think you will want more than one or two packs, Pro is usually the better buy.

Your pack stays yours either way — if a Pro Yearly subscription later ends, the pack you bought still works.

Yes. Family Sharing is turned on for every DualCam purchase — Pro Yearly, Pro Lifetime and each pack. Members of your Apple Family Sharing group get it on their own iPhones: they open DualCam, tap Pro, then Restore Purchases.

Sign in with the same Apple Account, open DualCam, tap Pro and then Restore Purchases. Everything you bought unlocks again at no charge.

Purchases are made with Apple, so refunds are decided by Apple under its own policy, at reportaproblem.apple.com. We cannot see or refund App Store payments ourselves.
