Virtual camera control
Only for iPhone
$5.99
iPhone
Tap STOP to save recordings to Photos. See recording time and saving progress in a compact badge. Requires free Mac companion 1.22.7 or later.
Control Blender cameras from your iPhone and record the shooting preview. Requires Blender 5.0 on an Apple Silicon Mac, a separate free VICA Mac companion installation, and the same local network.
This release is a paid download with a one-time app purchase. The Korean App Store price is KRW 10,000; check your local App Store price before downloading. All features in this release are included, with no additional in-app purchase or subscription required.
Choose EN or KR at launch. The setup guide explains Mac companion installation, Wi-Fi and QR connection, and your first shot. Reopen it from Help.
Use Director for solo movement, lens, aperture and focus control. For a two-person crew, connect two iPhones to the same Mac: Camera handles movement and recording; Focus handles lens, aperture and focus. All roles are included in the app purchase for this release.
DOP follows phone position and orientation. Joystick mode provides on-screen movement control. Pause, reposition your phone, and resume from the held composition.
Add and name cameras, select control and recording targets, and record multiple camera previews together. Robot arm moves between stored poses with segment timing and speed curves. Real shooting follows slopes on the selected mesh beneath the camera while maintaining its height above that mesh.
REC saves Blender camera previews as silent MP4 videos in your chosen Mac folder. These are preview recordings, not final renders. The iPhone camera feed and app buttons are not recorded. Performance and image quality depend on the scene, devices, network and camera count. SOLID preview does not show depth-of-field blur; focus and aperture affect the Blender camera and final render.
Control Blender Play/Stop from the shooting screen while operating the camera. Playback controls remain visible during recording. Reset returns to the current Take start while preserving saved Takes and videos, and is unavailable while recording or saving.
