Recording Split Screen Videos on iPhone
Split screen video shows two angles at once—perfect for tutorials, interviews, and side-by-side content. Here’s how to record split screen videos on iPhone with Double Camera, plus tips to make the layout look great.
What is a split screen video on iPhone?
A split screen video displays two camera views in one frame (for example, front and back cameras together). It’s a simple way to create dual perspective video without editing two separate clips.
How to record split screen videos on iPhone?
Double Camera lets you choose a split screen layout and record both cameras in sync.
Follow these steps:
- Download Double Camera from the App Store and open it.
- Grant camera and microphone permissions.
- Select Split Screen as your layout (side-by-side or top/bottom).
- Tap record and keep both views framed as you film.
- Stop and export your split screen video to your Camera Roll.
Split screen vs PiP: which layout should you use?
Split screen gives both views equal space, which is great for interviews and demonstrations. PiP keeps one view dominant (usually the back camera) and adds a smaller face cam—perfect for reaction videos and vlogging.
How do you make split screen videos look professional?
Small framing choices make a big difference. Try these tips:
- Use landscape only if your platform supports it—vertical is often best for Reels and TikTok.
- Keep your face well-lit so the selfie view stays clear.
- Avoid busy backgrounds behind the PiP or split view to reduce visual noise.
- Use a tripod or stable grip to keep both halves steady.
