You can record an audio focused video with Flip either in video mode or audio mode.
- In video mode, there are certain effects that you can use to hide your device's camera image.
- In audio mode, your device's camera won't even show up on screen. You can still use most of the Flip camera's effects. This option may work differently on web, Android, and iOS.
Note: If you want to create a video with a different app that isn't the Flip camera, you're able to import a video into Flip.
