Can you switch cameras while recording video on iPhone?

Switching between front and rear cameras during an active video recording depends on the app and iPhone camera mode. Do not assume the stock Camera app has the same mid-recording switch control as a social-media app.

What to do

  1. Check the current stock Camera interface for the selected video mode.
  2. Test the relevant social app's recording controls.
  3. If needed, record separate clips and combine them.
