About
AYU3 is a 3-second video diary with no editing required.
Capture just three seconds of a moment, and watch the ordinary days of your life slowly become a film.
Your kids growing up, life with your pets, a trip, an ordinary today — kept just for you.
■ Keep today, in just 3 seconds
Press the record button and it captures exactly 3 seconds, then saves itself.
You don't have to keep much. No editing, no save button.
Record, and you're done.
Five clips a day. That's the limit.
Because there's a limit, the ordinary moments get chosen —
and a missed day is never held against you.
■ You won't know until you watch
Each clip is finished automatically to match its light and time of day.
A night walk home, a sunlit noon, a sudden sepia —
the same everyday life, kept in slightly different faces.
■ Videos become a diary
The date appears large when you play a clip, making each video a diary page.
Only the days you recorded carry amber dots on the calendar.
Pick a day to play it in one piece.
Play a whole month, and it becomes your own short film.
■ Every day, a little film
Stitching them together is the app's job.
Record on three days, and your first little film appears by itself.
Export it as a single video and share it anywhere.
Now and then, a special effect settles on a reel, and it feels like a memory from long ago: a "Distant Memory".
■ AYU3 Plus (one-time purchase)
Some days, you want to keep more. Plus is for those days — pay once, keep it forever.
- Up to 10 clips a day (your usual 5, then 5 more with Plus)
- Change the finish afterwards — or set it back to automatic
- Reels for any date range you like
Not a subscription. Family Sharing supported.
Free stays free, forever.
■ Privacy
Your recordings stay on your device and in your own iCloud (backup is optional). No accounts, no servers.
No data collection of any kind.
■ For people who
- never make it past day three of a written diary
- want to keep the ordinary days of their kids or pets
- want to keep everyday life for themselves, not for social media
Today's 3 seconds can only be recorded today.
Even an ordinary today will someday be a treasured memory.
Walking through life, 3 seconds at a time. AYU3

What's New in AYU3
1.4.0
September 26, 2026
• The camera no longer switches lenses mid-recording, so close-ups and low light stay sharp all the way through. • Reels now have a timeline: step back and forward one clip at a time, hold for the previous or next day, or scrub to see the date and time. • AYU3 Plus: give a whole reel one look, then save or share it as is. • The date signature now includes the time in every look.
