JamCam is an app that tackles an issue that’s plagued every iPhone user at least once — if you go to record music and video at the same time, iTunes will often be cancelled out by another app.

The JamCam app is Vine-like in that lets you record 15-second videos, using the music in your phone's iTunes library as the soundtrack. The app also lets you skip ahead to a certain point in a song, which helps to set videos to a favourite verse or an epic guitar solo in the middle of a song.

After recording, JamCam clips can be shared to [Facebook](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/live-switcher-mobile-app), [Instagram](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shazam) and Twitter, but there’s also an ever-growing community of jammers to interact with in-app. Users can vote up other videos, or be directed to [YouTube](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jamselect) or iTunes to purchase songs, without even having to leave the app to find out what that song is.
