Long demos often need both slides and a face on camera. Stopping and restarting creates awkward joins. Peacae Recorder lets you switch between screen-focused and camera-focused views while a single recording continues.

When to use switch view

Start on screen for context, then move to camera for a direct message, then back to screen for the walkthrough. The transition cross-fades so viewers stay oriented.

How it works in the app

Begin recording with screen or tab capture and a presenter bubble or camera enabled. During recording, use the switch control on the recording bar to toggle layouts. You keep one timeline and one exported file.

  • β€’Enable camera or presenter bubble before recording.
  • β€’Record screen content as usual.
  • β€’Tap switch view on the recording controls to cross-fade to camera.
  • β€’Switch back anytime β€” chapters still mark key moments.
