(Pocket-lint) – Instagram has added a new feature called Dual, which lets you use both your front and back cameras.

The idea is that you can record something interesting, while also recording your reaction to that event, and both will appear on screen at the same time.

If you’ve ever watched a streamer on Twitch, you’re probably familiar with this format: the gameplay takes center stage, but a smaller front camera shows the streamer’s reactions.

Now that we know what it is, here’s how to access it:

4. Select the camera icon labeled Double
5. Press the big reel icon in the center to record your video.
