Mugen Camera now supports iPhone Duo! iPhone Duo Support Use the full screen whether iPhone Duo is closed or open. On the large inner display, you get the same layout as on iPad: a full-screen preview with the record button, settings, and microphone selection neatly lined up on the right. The controls rearrange naturally as you open and close it. Refined Orientation Handling We've updated how video and photo orientation is handled to match the latest system, so recording stays just as reliable on every iPhone and iPad, including Dual Camera Recording. Using iPhone Duo? If anything looks off, let us know from "A Request Regarding iPhone Duo" in Settings. We'll make it a top priority.

Your volume buttons are now a record button! 【Start and Stop Recording with the Volume Buttons】 On the camera screen, either volume button now starts and stops recording, just like the built-in Camera app. Start capturing without even looking at the screen, whether your iPhone is on a tripod or you're wearing gloves. Bluetooth shutter remotes and Camera Control may work too. Want to adjust the volume while listening to music as you record? Turn this off anytime in Recording Assistance in Settings. While the Screen Saver is on, the volume buttons won't end it or stop your recording by default, so nothing stops by accident. This feature came straight from your requests. Keep the ideas coming through in-app support!

The view in front of you. Your reaction to it. Keep recording both. Dual camera recording arrives in a major update to Mugen Camera! 【Introducing Dual Camera Recording】 Record with the main and front cameras at the same time, with each view saved as its own independent video. Capture a new place and your reaction, or time spent with someone special, from two perspectives. A small picture-in-picture preview lets you check both views as you film in portrait or landscape. Mugen Camera’s split and loop recording now work with both cameras, too. Storage limits use their combined file sizes, and older recordings are automatically deleted in matching pairs. Keep both sides of the moment together while recording continues. Save to app storage, iCloud Drive, or your Photo Library. On supported devices, record both cameras in FHD at 30 fps for free. With Premium, choose the resolution and frame rate for each camera from the combinations your device supports. Try a new way to capture more with Mugen Camera. We’d love to hear how you use it—share your feedback and ideas through in-app support.

Mugen Camera is ready for iOS 27 with a modernized launch process and refinements to how the app starts and resumes. Instant Record on Launch has also been verified on a physical device. With newer front cameras such as those on iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max in mind, I also reviewed how the app adapts recording orientation to the camera’s capabilities. Please share any feedback through the iOS 27 feedback section in Settings.

I updated the software libraries in Mugen Camera to the latest versions I have verified, so you can keep recording with more confidence.

Recording options and saved files are now easier to understand in the language you use on your device. If anything feels unclear, please contact us anytime from the in-app support email.

App storage browsing is now faster and more stable. [Faster Thumbnails] We improved how thumbnails are prepared for recorded videos and folder lists, making file lists quicker to open and smoother to scroll. [More Reliable App Storage] Display data that can be regenerated from videos is now handled more efficiently, so reviewing and organizing recorded clips feels more comfortable after shooting. We’ll keep refining Mugen Camera to make long recordings easier to review and manage. If you notice anything, please contact us through the in-app support email.

Improved front camera orientation handling for the iPhone 17 series. [Front Camera Orientation] Preview and saved video orientation now behave more reliably when using the front camera on supported newer iPhone models. This helps portrait and landscape recording feel correct and predictable. We also reviewed part of the app’s internal structure to keep Mugen Camera easier to maintain and improve. If you notice anything, please feel free to contact us through the in-app support email.

Made internal adjustments to improve the overall experience. [Experience Improvements] We refined part of the app’s internal guidance flow so it behaves more naturally during use.

A single screenshot gives our support team everything they need to help you quickly. If you have any questions or feedback, feel free to drop us a line through the in-app support email.

New users now get a beautifully crafted, 5-screen welcome guide on first launch!

Rich background imagery and smooth animations introduce the app's philosophy, core features, and how to get started. [See Auto-Split in Action] A live timeline animation demonstrates how recordings are automatically split into smaller files — no interruptions, no lost footage. You'll understand the magic of non-stop recording before you even hit the record button. [Permissions Made Easy] Camera, microphone, and location permissions are requested naturally as part of the welcome flow. If a permission isn't granted, the app guides you straight to Settings so nothing stands in your way. We're always working to make Mugen Camera better. Drop us a line through the in-app support email — we'd love to hear what you think.

We've optimized the app's look and feel for Dark Mode. [Dark Mode Visual Tuning] The accent color throughout the app now adapts naturally to your display setting. In Dark Mode, colors are lighter and easier on the eyes, while Light Mode keeps its rich, deep tones — a more comfortable experience no matter how you use your device. Got feedback or ideas? We're all ears — reach out anytime via the in-app support email.

We've refined the app's screens and rebuilt its foundation from the ground up.

We've added customizable long-press duration for the recording stop button, giving you more control over accidental stops! [Customizable Long-Press Duration for Stop] When "Long Press to Stop Recording" is enabled, you can now choose how long you need to press — anywhere from 1 to 5 seconds. Whether you're filming at a crowded event or a busy location, setting a longer press duration ensures that an accidental touch won't interrupt your recording. Changes take effect instantly, so you can adapt on the fly. [Improved Settings Readability] We've overhauled text display across every settings screen. Even with larger text sizes enabled in iOS Accessibility settings, every option name now wraps naturally across multiple lines instead of being cut off. No matter your preferred text size, you'll always be able to read the full name of every setting at a glance. We're always listening and improving. Have thoughts or suggestions? Drop us a line through the in-app support email — we'd love to hear from you.

We've deeply explored the latest audio input APIs introduced in iOS 26 and brought powerful external microphone support to Mugen Camera! 【External Microphone Selection】 Leveraging the new AVInputPickerInteraction API in iOS 26, you can now choose your preferred microphone directly from the recording screen. AirPods, DJI Mic, USB-C audio devices, and other connected inputs are displayed in a list with real-time sound level metering. Your selection is remembered across sessions, so you never have to pick again. 【AirPods High-Quality Recording Mode】 We've also adopted the new Bluetooth High-Quality Recording capability available in iOS 26. Compared to traditional Bluetooth HFP, the audio quality is significantly improved, making AirPods a serious option as a wireless microphone. The high-quality mode is automatically selected on supported devices and gracefully falls back on others. 【External Mic Disconnection Handling】 If an external microphone is disconnected during recording, the app seamlessly switches to the built-in microphone and continues capturing. You'll receive an on-screen notification so you can keep focusing on your shoot with confidence. 【Translation Quality Improvements】 We fixed untranslated text in the photo library permission alerts, ensuring all messages display correctly in English. We're committed to staying on the cutting edge. Got ideas or feedback? Drop us a line via the in-app support email anytime.
