Tutorial: Using the dual camera on Snapchat
A new feature to film both sides of the smartphone
Since the end of the summer, Snapchat has announced the release of a new feature that uses the same code as their competitor "BeReal". Indeed, this new social network has made its effect on the market since its operation was based on the dual camera. Thus, Snapchat decided to offer this feature that is so enticing to users. Instagram has also jumped on the bandwagon by offering the same functionality as BeReal.
The dual camera is an addition to an already comprehensive range of products
Snapchat is the social network that offers the most new features or improvements to their existing features. All these changes are aimed at optimising the quality of the content that is created in this application in order to attract a maximum number of users. For example, it is the first social network to offer a Shopping AR to try out products on oneself thanks to the try-on.
How does the dual camera work?
The dual camera contains 4 modes of use that allow you to diversify and find the right format for your photo or video. One mode is based on the vertical format and another on the horizontal format. The other two modes allow you to have a picture in the picture or to distract yourself by adding the background on the other side of the camera.
After the user is satisfied with the final rendering, it can be shared in the application since the content is simply a normal video or image.
