How do I video camera switch front to back while recording on iphone

How do I video camera switch front to back while recording on iphone? I have to start a new video each time I want to switch front and back facing cameras. this seems like a simple enough situation since you can easily do this on Facetime.

Using iMovie or another video-editing tool, stitch the various hunks of video together...


FrontVideo + BackVideo + FrontVideo + BackVideo = LongerVideo


This is how just about every video is created. It’s rare to see a long one-take video.


This isn’t what you want, but it’s about as close as you’ll be able to get to switching input cameras in mid-recording, short of using two cameras.


And again, log some feedback with the folks at Apple. They don’t necessarily read postings here.

Thanks for the reply. I don’t know what concatenate means but I want to switch while videoing/ recording from front camera to back camera to talk the illustrate a point. That’s what I am trying to do. I don’t want to splice and all that nonsense.


I hope that’s clear enough. But it seems your answer is simply “ NO” as well. So much for Apple “innovation “
