App
TalkCam
TalkCam is an iPhone app for recording talking-head (口播) videos with a single camera and a built-in teleprompter. Record one clean take — front or back — while reading your scrolling script, then edit afterward: add on-canvas text and image stickers, apply beauty, add a logo overlay and a watermark, and crop to 9:16, 16:9, 3:4, 4:3, or 1:1. Effects are never baked into the recording — they apply only at export via an offline render pass that bakes everything into one finished MP4 saved to Photos. The free tier covers everyday recording and text stickers; TalkCam Pro unlocks image stickers, removes the watermark, and enables up to 4K export. Local-first: no account, no ads, no tracking.

What it does
Open the recorder, pick the front or back camera, load a script into the teleprompter, and hit record. TalkCam captures a clean camera + microphone take — the teleprompter scroll and beauty preview are there to help you perform, but none of the effects are baked into the recording itself. When you stop, switch to the editor: place text and image stickers on the canvas, refine the beauty look, add a logo, set a watermark, and crop the frame to the aspect ratio you need. When it looks right, start an offline render and TalkCam bakes every effect into a single finished MP4 saved to Photos.
Core flow
- Single-camera take — record the front or back camera with a scrolling teleprompter for your script.
- Edit after recording — on-canvas text and image stickers, beauty, logo, watermark, and crop.
- Clean recording — effects are never baked into the take; the recording stays a raw camera + audio MP4.
- On-device — recording, editing, and the final export render all happen locally.
- One render, one MP4 — all effects bake into a single finished file saved to Photos.
What's different
Most talking-head apps bake filters and beauty into the recording itself — change your mind and you reshoot. TalkCam records a clean, untreated camera take and applies every effect only at export time, via an offline VideoProjectRenderer pass. So you can restyle stickers, retune the beauty, and switch aspect ratios as many times as you want without losing your original take. Front-camera mirroring is a capture/preview convenience only; the export uses the stored frames as-is without re-mirroring.
Built for privacy
TalkCam is local-first: no account, no ads, no analytics or tracking SDKs, and no personal data collection. Projects, settings, scripts, and recorded media stay on your device, and exported videos are saved to your own Photos library. It supports English and Simplified Chinese and light/dark appearance.
TalkCam Pro
The free tier records single-camera takes, includes text stickers, and exports up to 1080p with a small TalkCam watermark. TalkCam Pro unlocks:
- Image stickers — add photos from your library as on-canvas stickers, on top of free text stickers.
- Up to 4K export — higher resolution for sharper output.
- No watermark — clean, brand-ready videos.
Available as an optional monthly or annual auto-renewing subscription, or a one-time lifetime purchase.
