Everyone who has an iPhone you mean. Plenty of Android phones have a capture button that you can click to grab a photo while the video is recording OR playing.

The app is free to download, and it doesn't offer ads or in-app purchases. It’s optimized for the iPhone 5 and runs on iOS 7.

But not available for Android because that would be redundant.

They do? I wasn't aware of it. I've never used my phone to record videos (no, not even to test it when I first got it) but I'll be sure to check it out. If it does I may start using it, if it doesn't I couldn't care less. It's a Galaxy S4 mini BTW. Thanks for the heads up.

Finally someone creates an app that does this. I will be downloading it ASAP.
