Silk is now Sylk — new name, same taste, and the biggest update we've ever shipped. THE CAMERA GREW UP • Record in stunning quality — up to 4K at 60 frames per second. Pick your resolution and frame rate right on the capture screen. • An all-new dual-camera engine runs both cameras at once. Double-tap to flip mid-recording — instant, seamless, and your audio never skips a beat. One take, one clip. • Introducing React: your selfie camera floats over the rear camera and both record together, live. React to the world in real time. • A built-in Teleprompter that listens as you speak and keeps pace with your voice. Write it, read it, nail it in one take. AN EDITOR THAT FEELS LIKE PLAY • The all-new Timeline: every clip is its own block. Trim any clip in place, hold and drag to reorder, and give each clip its own speed and filter. • Layers: drop text, photos — even other videos — right on top of your video. Move them, size them, and time exactly when they appear. • The new Mixer: balance your original audio, your added sound, and every video layer independently. • Import up to five clips from your camera roll at once. CAPTIONS, YOUR WAY • Auto-captions you can actually edit — fix a word, restyle the look, and drag them anywhere on screen. NEVER LOSE A TAKE • Your work auto-saves as you edit. If anything interrupts you — even a crash — your footage and every edit are waiting in Drafts. AND A HUNDRED LITTLE THINGS • Camera flips are flash-free. Filmstrips load instantly and never flicker while you edit. Filters moved to the editor, where they belong. Performance and smoothness improvements everywhere. Sylk 1.2. Short video, done with taste.
