When HMD Global-owned Nokia unveiled its new flagship smartphone, Nokia 8, prominently highlighted its dual-site camera feature – nicknamed as ‘Bothie’. The feature combines both the rear and back cameras in a single frame and splits the screen to house two viewfinders, thus allowing you to click images and video from both the cameras, simultaneously.

Indeed, but what is more interesting here is that you can mimic and experience the same bothie feature on your present smartphone with these cool free apps.
