After several rounds of metadata tweaking rejections by App Store Review, I finally managed to get another app on the App Store. The original idea came many years ago as I was contacted by a certain Cyan founder about the desire of making a video recording app that was retro in nature. The idea was to bring back the functionality of old-school film cameras. You could shoot video sequentially without the ability to edit in any way. No removing what you just recorded. No reordering of clips. You would shoot events as they happened and when you were done – you’d have a video of all those clips as you recorded them. That’s what this does.
After you shoot your clips of video – when you save to your camera roll on your phone, it merges them into a single video and then clears the clips out. You can choose from 720p, 1080p, or 4k when merging the video. It defaults to 1080p on initial installation.
The point is to be old school, easy-to-use, operate quickly without latency, and provide a quality output. Great for concerts, social gatherings, or other events when you want to capture shorter clips of content. Since recording is toggled with an easy tap, you can line up shots that vary slightly for in-camera jitter editing. Anyway, enjoy. It’s a pretty fun app to use and I learned a lot coding it up.
