Regarding the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max, one thing has long been evident: despite reducing the number of cameras on the iPhone 17 Air, Apple intends to heavily invest in strengthening the Pro camera system. According to a recent leak from Jon Prosser, the Camera app for this year’s Pro models will soon have an exclusive software function.

The iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max will have front and back cameras for simultaneous video recording.
Jon Prosser shared a new video last night that shows some of the best possible previews of iOS 19’s upcoming design.

He concludes the video with an unexpected leak that is more linked to Apple’s upcoming iPhone 17 range than it is to iOS 19.According to Prosser, the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max will have a capability that is only available through the Camera app: the capacity to simultaneously record front- and rear-facing video.
The prototype above illustrates how this will resemble a FaceTime call, with the front-facing video displayed in a smaller window and the rear camera view taking up the most of the screen.
For many years, third-party apps have allowed the iPhone to record simultaneously from several cameras. However, Apple has never included that feature in the built-in Camera app before, and it looks like it will this year.

The Opinion of 9to5Mac
YouTubers and other video producers will undoubtedly like this function, but it’s sad that it’s only available on the 17 Pro and Pro Max, especially when third-party apps can already accomplish this on a larger variety of devices.

Perhaps the feature is made possible in a way that the normal A19 cannot by the A19 Pro chip, which will be Pro-exclusive. Or Apple is accomplishing something unique that other apps haven’t yet done. As it does every year, Apple may possibly simply wish to provide customers additional incentives to upgrade to a Pro model.
