Get in the photo.
Every single time.
SayCheese turns a second phone into your camera. Prop one up, hold the other as a live remote - watch the frame, tap the shutter, or just say “cheese.” The shot saves in full quality on both phones.

Always stuck behind the camera? It's time to get in front.
No more handing your phone to a stranger, sprinting from a 10-second timer, or cropping yourself out. SayCheese gives the camera to a spare phone - and gives you back your spot in the frame.

What it does
One app, two phones, zero compromises
Everything you need to shoot from a distance - live preview, a real remote shutter, and hands-free voice capture.
One-tap remote shutter
Fire the shot from meters away. No timer sprint, no propping the phone and hoping you made it into the frame.
Say “cheese” to shoot
Hands-free voice capture. When everyone’s smiling, just say “cheese” and the camera fires - no reaching for a button.
Saved on both phones
Every photo lands on both devices at full resolution - no messaging the picture to yourself afterwards.
4K video, zoom & ratios
Control zoom, switch aspect ratios, and record up to 4K video - all driven from the remote phone in your hand.
Works offline, no account
Connects directly phone-to-phone over Wi-Fi Direct or the local nearby link. No internet, no sign-up, nothing uploaded.
How it works
In the frame in three steps
No cables, no cloud, no learning curve. If you can take a selfie, you can do this.
Pair two phones
Open SayCheese on both phones and tap to connect. One becomes the camera, the other becomes your remote.
Set the scene
Prop the camera phone on a tripod, shelf, or rock. Walk into frame holding the remote phone - you’re still in control.
Capture the moment
Watch the live preview, then tap the shutter or say “cheese.” Done - the photo is already on both phones.

Frequently asked questions
Can I really use two phones as a camera and a remote?
Yes. SayCheese pairs two phones - one becomes the camera and the other becomes a live-preview remote with a shutter button. You see exactly what the camera phone sees and fire the shot from across the room.
Do I need Wi-Fi or an internet connection?
No. The two phones connect directly to each other over a local phone-to-phone link - Wi-Fi Direct on Android and the nearby local link on iPhone. It works with no internet, no router, and nothing is uploaded to the cloud.
How do I take a group photo with everyone in it?
Prop the camera phone on a tripod, shelf, or table, walk into frame with the remote phone in hand, check the live preview so everyone is framed, then tap the shutter or say “cheese.” The photographer never has to sit the photo out again.
Can I take a photo with my voice?
Yes. SayCheese listens for the word “cheese,” so once everyone is ready you can capture completely hands-free - perfect for group shots and self-portraits where you can’t reach a button.
Does it work between an iPhone and an Android phone?
SayCheese pairs iPhone with iPhone and Android with Android. Both platforms are fully supported - just make sure the two phones you’re connecting run the same operating system.
Is SayCheese free?
SayCheese is free to download and use. An optional Pro upgrade unlocks aspect-ratio control, higher video resolution, watermark-free capture, and an ad-free experience across every phone you connect.
