Jon Prosser recently shared details on iOS 19 and how it will look like with the new glass-like UI inspired by visionOS. The leaker also stated that iOS 19 would feature rounded icons, which was something that he previously did not agree to. While you can check out the iOS 19 design in our detailed post, Prosser also shared a crucial camera feature of the iPhone 17 Pro, which was initially debuted by Samsung more than a decade ago.
iPhone 17 Pro models will target the vlogging community with a new dual video recording feature
At the end of the video, Front Page Tech host Jon Prosser stated that the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max will come with a feature that Samsung has already used in the past. Apple is now bringing a dual video recording feature to the iPhone, which was also available on the Galaxy S4.
According to Prosser, the iPhone 17 Pro will be able to record with the front and the back camera at the same time. It will allow users to record the subject and their reactions at the same time. As for the UI, it will be very similar to the FaceTime interface that we currently use on our iPhone models. It remains to be seen if the feature will be available on older iPhone models through a software update.
Even if the feature does not make it to older iPhones, you can still use it through third-party apps that are already available on the App Store. For instance, Snapchat gives you the option to record from the front and the back camera simultaneously. Apple’s rendition of the feature will be available to users through the stock camera app on the iPhone.
While the feature was originally introduced with the Galaxy S4, Samsung also made it available again with the Galaxy S21 and newer models. It is good to see how Apple is following the likes of Samsung and bringing back a nostalgic feature to its camera app. You can jump directly to 9:13 to check out the alleged feature in action.
The dual video recording feature would be a good addition to the list of camera features on the iPhone, but it will be specifically important for content creators. We have previously reported that Apple will target the vlogging community with the iPhone 17 Pro models, and the dual video recording feature could be the feature that was being referred to. We will have more details on the subject, so be sure to stick around for more on what is coming with the iPhone 17 Pro models.
