LESS FRICTION. MORE FLOW.
01 / CALL THE SHOTS
Set your phone down. Step into frame. Start, pause, resume and stop your recording with a simple voice command.
Optional voice control on compatible iPhones with iOS 26. English commands, processed on your device. Touch controls are always there.
“HEY TAKE,
START RECORDING.”
SAY IT. YOU’RE ROLLING.
Tap a command to preview it. This website does not access your microphone.
Move the slider. The reference guides your shot and stays out of your exported video.
02 / FIND YOUR FRAME
Bring a reference clip from Photos or Files into your camera view. See it as a translucent overlay while you line up your framing and movement.
Adjust the opacity, mirror the reference or choose where it starts. Your saved photos and videos contain only what your camera captures. Add scene stops to pause automatically while you get ready for the next cut.
Use clips you own or have permission to use.
03 / SET THE VIBE
Hear your reference while you record. Then choose what makes the final cut: your microphone, the reference audio, both or neither.
Keep a spoken intro. Add the beat. Go completely silent. You set the mix.
Headphones help keep reference playback out of your microphone. Spoken commands can be heard in recorded mic audio.
Your voice + the reference.
Try the switches. This is a visual preview with no audio playback.
THE REST IS ALREADY IN FRAME.
A focused camera with the controls you need to get from “one more try” to “that’s the one.”
A 3 or 5 second countdown gives you a moment to find your mark.
Photo or video. Full screen framing. Choose your aspect ratio, pinch to zoom and adjust exposure. Up to 4K at 60 FPS on supported cameras.
Watch your takes, save to Photos or share. Your local library keeps it simple.
No account, ads or tracking SDKs. Your clips stay in the app until you choose to save or share them.
BEFORE YOU HIT RECORD
TAKE is currently in private beta through TestFlight. Public download is coming later. You can email us about availability using the link below.
The camera, reference overlay and sound mix work on iPhones running iOS 18 or later. Voice commands require iOS 26 and an iPhone that supports Apple’s on device speech model. TAKE checks compatibility before setup. English commands are available in this version.
You do not need to enable Apple Intelligence. Voice control uses Apple’s speech recognition on supported devices. The first setup may need an internet connection to download the speech model.
Yes. Switch to Photo, choose a frame and capture a still. Use your reference as a visual guide, then preview, share or save the photo from My Takes. The guide stays out of the saved image.
In Reference, enable Pause at scene cuts. Scrub to each cut and add a stop. TAKE pauses the camera and reference together at each marker. Move into position, then resume with a countdown. Your preparation time stays out of the video.
Available resolutions, frame rates and stabilization depend on your iPhone and the camera you select. TAKE shows supported options in Studio settings. Aspect crops reduce the dimensions of the saved file.
The visual overlay only appears while you frame and capture. It is never added to your saved image or exported video. Reference audio is a separate choice in the video sound mix.
Only when you enable it in the open recording studio. It stops when you leave the studio or the app becomes inactive. Speech is processed on your device. Touch controls work with voice control turned off.
Yes. The current version is free, with no subscription, paid unlock or watermark.
This version imports video files from Photos or Files. It does not download videos from social links. Choose content you own or have permission to use.
