How to film a travel vlog with the front and back camera on iPhone

For a travel vlog, record yourself and the view together: the front camera shows your reaction and the back camera shows the place. A dual camera app captures both in one take, so you do not have to turn the phone around or ask someone to film you.

Why it suits travel

You can narrate and react while the place stays on screen. One take means fewer clips to sort after a long day.

Before the trip

  • Test the app at home and check storage, because two cameras use more space.
  • Bring a charger or battery pack, since dual recording is demanding.
  • Check that your iPhone supports it. See the compatibility page.

In the edit

Separate front and back files let you keep the view full screen and use your face as a small corner clip, or swap them.

Mind the place

Some venues and museums do not allow filming. Check the rules and ask before you record people.
