Videk — Multi-Camera Streaming & Recording
with iPhone, iPad & Mac

Videk turns multiple iPhones into a wireless multi-camera production system. Videk Camera captures each angle, while Videk Director on iPhone, iPad, or Mac lets you monitor, switch, record, and live stream them over local Wi-Fi. No external hardware needed — free for up to 2 cameras.

Professional Camera Control

Every iPhone becomes a broadcast-quality camera with full manual control and professional monitoring tools.

Manual Exposure

Fine-tune exposure, ISO, shutter speed, and white balance (2,000K-8,000K) for complete creative control.

Focus Peaking

Red edge overlay confirms critical focus in real time using Sobel gradient detection. Never miss focus again.

Live Histogram

256-bin luminance histogram with color-coded zones for shadows and highlights. Monitor exposure at a glance.

Zebra & False Color

Zebra stripes flag overexposed areas. False color maps the full luminance spectrum from clipped blacks to clipped highlights.

Lens & Zoom

Smooth zoom slider with automatic switching between ultra-wide, wide, and telephoto. Visual lens markers show which lens is active.

Composition Guides

Rule of thirds grid and frame guides for 16:9, 4:3, 1:1, and 2.35:1 cinema widescreen aspect ratios.

Director: Your Control Room

Your iPhone, iPad, or Mac becomes a full control room — switch cameras, add overlays, record everything, and stream live.

Live Camera Grid

See all connected camera feeds simultaneously. Tap any camera to instantly make it the primary program source.

Live Overlays

Add PNG images, animated GIFs, and custom text on top of your output. Drag, pinch-to-scale, rotate, and adjust opacity.

Web Page Overlays

Drop in any URL — scoreboards, lower-thirds, dashboards, or live HTML graphics — and render it live on top of your stream. Drag, pinch-to-scale, fit-to-canvas, and adjust opacity just like image overlays.

Record Sessions

Record every connected camera simultaneously as individual tracks. Capture your entire multi-camera session with a single tap.

Export Sessions

Export your recorded sessions as finished video files. Re-edit which source is active at any point before exporting the final cut.

iCloud Archive

Archive your recorded sessions to iCloud for safe, long-term storage. Access your recordings from any device, anytime.

Final Cut Pro & DaVinci Resolve Export

Export sessions as an FCPXML project for Final Cut Pro or an XML timeline for DaVinci Resolve, with every camera track included. Jump straight into professional post-production editing.

Lossless Audio Recording

Recorded sessions keep studio-quality sound: a bit-for-bit 24-bit WAV from your selected audio source, including a USB audio interface or mixer plugged into a camera iPhone. Built for musicians.

Virtual Camera (Mac)

Use your live program output as a camera in FaceTime, Zoom, Discord or OBS. Videk Director appears as a system camera on your Mac — a multi-camera show in any call. How it works

Program Output Window

Open a clean, controls-free window with just the program picture (⌘⇧O on Mac) — share it in Discord, send it to an external display or capture it in OBS.

Audio Processing

Compressor, limiter and output level for your live stream, with sensible defaults and full control. Recordings stay untouched and lossless.

Vertical Video

Native 9:16 vertical video support for TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts. Create social-first content directly.

Video Compositing

GPU-accelerated compositor with single camera, side-by-side, and grid layout modes. Metal-rendered with letterboxing.

RTMP Streaming

Stream directly to YouTube, Twitch, Instagram, and TikTok. H.264 or HEVC encoding, secure RTMPS, and adaptive bitrate, up to 4K.

Color Grading

Real-time contrast and saturation adjustments applied directly to the stream output for a polished, professional look.

Switch Modes

Choose from three automatic switching modes. Auto-Switch analyzes all camera feeds for motion and cuts to the source with the most action. Timed Switch cycles through all cameras at a set interval. Random mode selects unpredictable sources and timing for a dynamic, spontaneous feel.

Sound Level Meter

Real-time sound bar displays incoming audio levels across your sources. Monitor volume at a glance to ensure consistent audio throughout your production.

iMovie Export

Export your multi-camera sessions in a format ready for iMovie. Bring your recordings into iMovie for quick edits, titles, and sharing.

Requirements & Limitations

What Videk needs to run — and what it deliberately does not do.

What you need

  • One iPhone, iPad, or Mac running Videk Director (iOS/iPadOS 18.6+, macOS 15.0+)
  • One or more iPhones or iPads running Videk Camera (iOS/iPadOS 18.6+)
  • All devices on the same local Wi-Fi network — 5 GHz recommended
  • About 2–3 Mbps of Wi-Fi bandwidth per camera
  • Internet only for RTMP live streaming and iCloud archiving

What Videk doesn't do

  • No Android, Windows, or browser version — Videk is Apple-only
  • No HDMI, SDI, USB, or NDI inputs — every camera is an iPhone or iPad running Videk Camera
  • No remote cameras over the Internet — cameras join over the local network only
  • The Director device does not double as a camera
  • Free tier covers 2 cameras; unlimited cameras, exports, and iCloud archive are Pro

More detail — including 4K guidance and restricted networks — is in the Videk FAQ. Editing afterwards? See Final Cut Pro export and DaVinci Resolve export. Comparing options? See Videk as a Switcher Studio alternative or multi-camera switching without hardware.

Your Video. Your Network. Your Privacy.

All processing happens on-device. No accounts, no sign-ups, no tracking. Camera streams travel only over your local network.
