Let’s face it: VidCon can get hot, in every sense of the word. Like many creators on site, Hearts swears by her trusty handheld fan. "That’s all you need," she says. It’s her secret weapon to stay cool and camera-ready through long days of panels, meet-and-greets, and filming on the go.

An iPhone-only setup

Apple iPhone 13 Pro $999.99 at Verizon

No DSLR. No laptop. No problem.

Hearts shoots and edits everything on her iPhone 13. She says she "never" uses a traditional camera. She prefers the back camera for its higher quality, especially for intros and polished clips, but often switches to the front camera for spontaneous, face-to-face chats with her followers. It's a full-on mobile production studio in the palm of her hand.
