Link your phones, snap better pictures together

Not getting the shot right? With OneSnap!, you can preview your friend’s camera view in real time and guide the pose and framing. Capture the moment—perfectly, together. OneSnap! recreates the “remote preview + shutter” experience from Apple Watch, but extends it to two phones: You see the frame here. They shoot over there. Clear communication, better photos, together.

Hi everyone 👋


I’m the maker of OneSnap!

The idea came from a very ordinary moment:
asking someone to take a photo of you, and… it just doesn’t look right.
Maybe the angle is off, the background gets cut, or the pose feels stiff.
You try to explain — “Maybe a little lower? No, more to the left… actually wait—” — and it becomes frustrating for both sides.

Not because either person is bad at taking photos, but because it’s genuinely hard to communicate a frame using only words.

So I wanted a way for both people to see the same camera view.


With OneSnap!, two iPhones share one live camera preview.
You can adjust the angle, pose, and composition together, in real time.
No servers involved — it’s peer-to-peer.
The camera feed never leaves the two devices.

When I started building this, I didn’t really know how P2P worked, or how to stream camera frames efficiently. I used Codex to help me learn, experiment, and write pieces of code I didn’t understand yet. It was surprisingly doable once I began.

The launch video was made with Sora — I even asked it to have Sam Altman host a OneSnap! keynote. It was fun, surreal, and honestly a bit emotional. It feels like we’re living in a moment where one person can build an entire product — from idea to app to launch story.

It feels like a good time to be a builder.

If you try OneSnap!, I’d really love to hear:

  • How you usually ask others to take photos for you

  • Whether sharing the view makes the process easier

  • Any confusion or moments that could be smoother

Thank you for being here, and for taking the time to read 🙏
I’d love to learn from your feedback.

@rand_cat are you solo founder?

Rand
@manraj yes, with the help of ai, one person can do many things
manraj

@rand_cat you hit the nail on head, i have already felt the power of ai and build a product <25 days, without any prior coding knowledge. by the way what tech stack you used or build it using no code builders like replit/lovable etc....

Rand
@manraj different products may need different tech stack, when i building a website, i like using next.js, and the ios app using swift. i don’t use any no code tool, i just use openai’s codex. i think if your product is very simple, no cool tool may handle it, but when the product and code grow, you may need more control or tweak something manual. it is best to learning by doing, see how ai code then learn it

Awesome and simple idea! Refreshing to see something original rather than the same common topics recycled again and again
Rand
@nair0 thinks, and yes i think we need more diversity ideas

You nailed a universal pain point. Everyone’s had that “not that angle, let’s take it again” moment 😅 and honestly, I hate posing twice 😂 So being able to see what my photographer (a.k.a. my friend) is seeing would save us both the stress. The P2P setup is impressive too, no servers means better privacy and speed. I love that 😊 Will it work for Android users too, or is it iPhone-only for now? That might really affect how fast it spreads. Congratulations @rand_cat

@george_esther thinks, i may focus on the iOS right now, if there are many people love it, i may try to build the android version.

Interesting and unconventional idea!
