Question 1

Can I record vertical and horizontal video at the same time?

Yes. SplitShot's dual-output mode captures 9:16 vertical and 16:9 horizontal video simultaneously from a single recording session. When you stop, you have both formats ready — no cropping or re-recording needed.

Question 2

What aspect ratios does SplitShot support?

Accepted Answer

SplitShot supports 9:16 vertical (portrait), 16:9 horizontal (landscape), and standard photo aspect ratios. Dual-output mode records both 9:16 and 16:9 from one take.

Question 3

Can I record front and back camera at the same time?

Accepted Answer

SplitShot supports dual-camera recording modes. You can switch between front and rear cameras and use picture-in-picture and split-screen framing layouts.

Question 4

Does SplitShot work for recording TikTok and YouTube content?

Accepted Answer

Yes. SplitShot is designed for this exact workflow. Record once and get both the vertical output for TikTok/Reels/Shorts and the landscape output for YouTube from the same take.
