A voice activated video camera is a device or app that begins and ends recording based on spoken commands. Shootsolo brings that capability to your iPhone and Android phone so you can record high-quality video while your hands are full, your body is in motion, or your subject is across the room.
Shootsolo begins the take instantly — no taps, no countdown.
Shootsolo stops and asks "Save take?"
Say "yes" to keep the take or "no" to reshoot — hands-free.
Voice activation is perfect for moments where touching the phone kills the shot — cooking with wet hands, demonstrating a workout rep, or filming a long tutorial where walking back to the tripod ruins the take. Shootsolo keeps you in control without keeping you near the phone.
While the app is open, Shootsolo listens for your selected command keywords and acts on them instantly — no buttons or menus needed.
Shootsolo runs on most iPhones and Android devices released in the last several years — if your phone runs a recent OS version, the app will work.
Yes, you can customize the command keywords in the app. Shootsolo only listens for your selected keywords, so you get reliable voice activation tailored to your preference.
Shootsolo responds to voice commands in real time, so the delay between your command and the recording action is negligible.
Shootsolo only listens while the app is open and active, so battery impact during a typical filming session is minimal.
