Hey Product Hunt! The story goes like this, so I am mindlessly scrolling through TikTok, and come across multiple street interviews which I found to be genuine and fun. Usually the interviewer uses their own phone as a mic while a friend records a video of them with theirs. I was curious what software they used to make it happen and found out they had to use the Voice Memo app on one phone and the Camera app on another and after they were done recording they had to transfer files between the devices and do the manual work of syncing audio and video. Upon further investigation I found that good quality wireless microphone setups cost $200 and up. That is when a light bulb went off. What if they could just stream the audio from one phone to the other and record it with the video automagically? That was when Spare Mic was born. After many sleepless nights and hair pulling working with audio processing, Spare Mic is finally here. Spare Mic lets you use a spare/friend’s iOS device as a wireless microphone for your videos. It works up to 10 meters/30 feet making it the perfect wireless mic solution for content creators in all disciplines: filmmakers, on-camera presenters, news-gatherers, vloggers and more. Whether you’re doing an interview or just shooting a video from further away, you will sound as if you were inches away from your phone. ⎡ No file transfers⎦ The audio from the device you use as your microphone is streamed in real time and when you are done recording your video, there is nothing else you need to worry about, such as transferring files between the devices. ⎡ Shorter Editing Time ⎦ You no longer have to deal with recording video on one device and audio on another and then having to stich them together in an editor taking up a majority of your editing time. With Spare Mic, your videos has the audio embedded, so you can focus on enhancing your content and not worry about audio. ⎡ Single Point of Failure ⎦ If there is an interruption either through a phone call or system alert on either device, both device stop recording. That way, you can always be certain that your video and audio are always in sync. ⎡Easy to use⎦ Setting up is as easy; install the app on both devices then with WiFi and Bluetooth enabled & the app open on both devices, tap the connect button and select the second device’s name from the list. Now you can start recording awesome videos with great quality sound. ⎡Export⎦ You can export the videos* you have created to your photos library and then share it with the world. * Exporting videos without watermark requires an in-app purchase. In-app purchases are required only on the device you use to export the video. Requirements: iOS 9.3 and up with Camera & Microphone access enabled and WiFi & Bluetooth turned on I am calling on the Product Hunt community to try out Spare Mic and give me your honest feedback and suggestions. Here is the App Store link: Spare Mic. Happy Hunting!

This is awesome! Congratulation @ronankmcgovern

this is a cool concept - a few thoughts: worth having some level of freemium that doesn't include a watermark initially I thought this allowed for a spare mic - what it actually does is allow a video recording with one device and use a mic as the other - would be good to make that clear. I think a cartoon would be helpful or a photo of someone using two devices and some arrows pointing to which device does what.

This is amazing, congratulations on launching this!

Congrats on your launch 😊
