Real creators. Real reviews.
Launched March 2026. Early creators love it. Read a few of their reviews.
-
This app is great because I don't have to use an iPhone 17 and I love to use it for dual recording.
-
Works just like described! You will be able to [use] dual camera mode on an older iPhone device, with Picture in Picture Mode, and also a cut-out of yourself in the videos.
-
I finally found an app that works smoothly and is actually free without ads with all its features like speedometer, [Face Mode] background remover, split screen where the scenes can be adjusted! … Thank you for this app!
-
When I downloaded it I thought certain quality, size, and focus settings would unlock with a paid version, but to my surprise everything was already working and configurable from the very first moment. I recorded an almost complete concert with the app, at excellent quality for social media. 100% recommended.
Original: Cuando la descargué pensé que ciertos ajustes de calidad, tamaño y enfoque se desbloquearían con una versión paga, pero para mi sorpresa ya estaba todo funcional y configurable desde el primer momento, grabé un concierto casi completo con la app con una calidad excelente para redes sociales. Recomendada al 100%

Finally, an app that delivers on its promise! SplitRig lets me record front AND rear camera at once, with live Picture-in-Picture. [Face Mode] removes the background automatically. Mind-blowing. And the real-time speedometer is a stroke of genius for road videos. Clean interface, pro results. A must-have for content creators!
Original: Enfin une app qui fait ce qu'elle promet ! SplitRig me permet d'enregistrer la caméra avant ET arrière en même temps, avec le mode Picture-in-Picture en live. Le [Mode visage] retire l'arrière-plan automatiquement, c'est bluffant. Et le speedomètre en temps réel est une idée de génie pour les vidéos de route. Interface claire, résultats pro. Indispensable pour les créateurs de contenu !
-
Super useful app for … recording runs, snowboarding and bike rides. Feedback on the app is also handled fast!
-
Easy and intuitive to pick up. Tested it this morning to record and share a running video. Flawless result.
Original: Prise en mains facile et intuitive, testée ce matin pour enregistrer et partager une vidéo de course à pied ! Rendu impeccable.

Very responsive devs and nice app!

Original: Böyle bir program harika olmuş herkese tavsiye ederim. Emeğine sağlık.

Questions, answered straight.
Direct answers to what real creators ask.
What resolution does SplitRig record at?
Up to 4K. On supported iPhones, SplitRig records the rear camera in 4K inside your Picture in Picture or Split Screen video, at 24 or 30 fps, in HEVC at 40 Mbps (4K 30 fps). Full HD 1080p at 30 fps is the default. Choose 24 fps for a cinematic look; Action Cam records at 60 fps for fast motion.
Are there any time limits on recording?
No. SplitRig sets no time limit at any resolution, up to 4K on supported iPhones, and no paid tier is needed. SplitRig saves your recording as it records.
Does SplitRig collect any data?
No. SplitRig collects zero personal data, has no analytics, and requires no account. All recordings stay on your device. Beyond camera and microphone, the optional permissions are Photos (to save recordings to your library), location (only when you enable a GPS overlay: Speedometer, Distance, Altitude, Pace, or Goal), and motion (for speed accuracy). No data leaves the device.
How is Face Mode different from Picture in Picture?
Face Mode removes your background live, on your iPhone: only you stay, placed over the view of the back camera, like a virtual green screen. Picture in Picture keeps the front camera's full picture in a small window you can move and resize, shaped as a rectangle or a circle.
Can I switch camera modes during recording?
Yes. You can switch between Face Mode, Picture in Picture, Split Screen, and Single Camera mid-recording without interruption. Zoom levels and camera swap also work mid-recording.
Does SplitRig work with Apple Watch?
Yes. The SplitRig Apple Watch companion gives you full control: start/stop, switch layouts, change zoom, swap cameras, toggle flash, mute audio, and take screenshots, all without touching the iPhone.
Can I use external microphones?
Yes. Plug a USB-C or Lightning mic into your iPhone (Rode, Shure, DJI, or a wireless kit's receiver) and SplitRig records from it, with no settings to change. Audio records at 48 kHz (AAC, 160 kbps) into the same file as your video. You can hot-swap mics mid-recording.
What activity types and overlays are supported?
Seven activity types: Walking, Running, Cycling, Driving, Skiing, Skating, General. Live overlays include Speedometer, Distance, Duration, Altitude, Pace, Goal Gauge, Sound Level Meter, and SplitRig Logo: all draggable, resizable, and baked into the recording.
Is SplitRig built for long recordings?
Yes. SplitRig runs on a smart recording engine, tuned with Apple's native camera features for pro-grade performance, with no time limit, and it saves your video as it records. For very long shoots, pick the Long Recording preset and turn on Eco Mode.
Can I use AirPods to start and stop recording?
Yes. On iOS 26 with H2-chip AirPods (AirPods Pro 2, AirPods 4, AirPods Pro 3), enable Camera Remote in Settings → [Your AirPods] → Camera Remote. A press on the stem then starts and stops recording in SplitRig, no need to touch the phone.
What is the best dual camera app for iPhone?
SplitRig. It records your front and back cameras together in one synced video on every iPhone from iPhone 11 on, up to 4K at 30 fps on the rear camera of supported iPhones. Action Cam records at 60 fps. It has a built-in teleprompter and live GPS overlays. Free, with no ads, no subscription and no account.
Made by a small team in Tokyo.For creators who don't compromise.
No subscriptions, no ads, no accounts, and the price stays zero. The next time the moment matters, hit record once and capture every angle.
