Standard screen recordings are impersonal. They show what's happening on screen, but they miss the human element that makes content engaging. When viewers see your face, they connect with you. They trust you more. They stay engaged longer.
This is exactly why tools like Loom exploded on desktop - they understood that showing your face while explaining something creates a fundamentally different experience than a voiceover alone. The problem? There was no equivalent for mobile. Until now.
DemoScope brings face cam recording to mobile, letting you create the same personal, engaging content from your iPhone. Whether you're demoing a mobile product, creating tutorials, or explaining a bug to your team, your face makes the difference.
How DemoScope's Face Cam Works
DemoScope displays your front camera as a floating picture-in-picture overlay on top of whatever you're recording. It's fully customizable:
Complete Face Cam Control
- Drag anywhere - Position your face cam in any corner or edge of the screen
- Pinch to resize - Make it larger for emphasis or smaller to stay unobtrusive
- Tap to change shape - Choose between circle, square, or rectangle formats
- Front or back camera - Show your face or use the rear camera to show your environment
The face cam stays in your recording, so viewers see exactly what you intended. No post-production compositing required - everything is captured in real-time, synced perfectly with your screen content.
Touch Indicators That Actually Work
Mobile interactions are invisible by default. When you tap, swipe, or pinch, there's no visual feedback in a screen recording. Your viewers are left guessing what you just did.
DemoScope solves this with customizable touch indicators that appear wherever you interact with the screen:
- Every tap shows as a visible dot
- Swipe gestures leave a trail showing direction
- Choose from 6 vibrant colors to match your brand
- Adjust size from subtle to bold
- Smooth animations that don't distract from content
This matters especially for tutorials. When you're teaching someone to use an app, they need to see exactly where to tap. Touch indicators make your instructions crystal clear.
Recording vs Streaming
DemoScope supports both local recording and live streaming, so you can choose the right mode for your use case:
Local Recording
- Records directly to your camera roll in MP4 format
- Perfect for YouTube videos, TikTok content, or course materials
- No internet required during recording
- Edit and perfect before publishing
Live Streaming
- Stream directly to Twitch, YouTube, Facebook, or custom RTMP
- Face cam and touch indicators included in stream
- Real-time interaction with your audience
- Perfect for mobile gaming or live tutorials
