## What is Daytape?

Daytape is your private video diary. No account, no feed, no editing app. You hit record a few times during the day, and in the evening your day is waiting as a finished film.

Your clips stay in your Photos. What's free stays free.

HOW IT WORKS
• Record: open the app, press the red button, done. A few seconds are enough. Or take a photo that holds still in your film.
• Watch: the day film joins your moments automatically, in the order you recorded them. No timeline, no editing.
• Collect: every day becomes a cassette in your archive, sorted by day, month and year. Search finds moments by title, place and date.

PLACES, LIKE ON A CAMCORDER
• Any clip can carry a place, shown in your day film.
• If you like, Daytape adds it while you record: your own places like “Home” even offline, elsewhere the city and neighborhood. Rename a clip and the app learns.
• A map shows the radius of each place.

RECORD LIKE A CAMCORDER
• Full-screen viewfinder with date stamp, tape counter and a red REC dot.
• Tap to focus, exposure, stabilization, grid and level. Start and stop with the volume buttons, too.
• Portrait or landscape per day, so your film stays consistent.
• Zoom from the ultra wide lens up to your iPhone's maximum.

TRIM, IF YOU WANT TO
• Set where a clip starts and ends, and cut quiet parts out of the middle. The original stays complete in Photos.
• Clip upside down? Turn it 180°.

REMINDERS, IF YOU WANT THEM
• If you haven't recorded anything by the afternoon, Daytape reminds you, once a day at most. Each kind can be turned off; everything is planned on your iPhone.

PRIVATE, BECAUSE IT IS YOUR LIFE
• No account, no sign-in, no email address.
• App lock with Face ID, Touch ID or your passcode.
• Your clips live in your Photos, in the album “Daytape” – not on a server of ours.
• No ads, and we don't sell your data. We never see your videos or photos, and we only collect usage data with your permission.

DAYTAPE FREE
Unlimited recordings, unlimited days. Your day film always plays in full in the app; you can export the first minute. 5 photos a day in your film, up to 3 favorite moments, trim up to 30 seconds per day. Search, app lock and your own end of day are free.

DAYTAPE PRO
• Export the whole day film, however long your day was.
• Places in your film, also added automatically.
• Record in 4K, unlimited photos and unlimited trimming.
• Unlimited favorite moments, titles for every clip and your own photos as day covers.
• As a subscription, monthly or yearly, both with 7 days free. Or buy once and keep it forever.

Days you recorded with Pro keep their complete export, even after a subscription ends.

STORAGE AND BACKUP
Every clip goes to your Photos library, into the album “Daytape”, and is backed up with your photos, for example through iCloud Photos. Daytape keeps no second copy. Your days, favorites and trims are part of your iPhone backup, so on a new iPhone Daytape finds your clips again.

GOOD TO KNOW
• For iPhone. Recordings use HEVC and take little space.
• Works offline – only buying, restoring, place names, maps and clips offloaded to iCloud need a connection.
• In eleven languages. Works with VoiceOver and large text.

SUBSCRIPTION TERMS
Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. A subscription renews automatically unless it is canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage and cancel your subscription in your Apple Account settings after the purchase.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.6 — 2026-10-05

Daytape 1.6: places, photos, app lock and search

• Places in your film: give any clip a place. It appears in your day film like camcorder text, and in exports if you like. (Pro)
• Add location automatically: Daytape fills in the place while you record. Your own places like “Home” are recognized even offline; elsewhere it adds the city and neighborhood. Rename a clip and Daytape remembers that name for the spot. (Pro)
• My Places with a map: see on a map where a place is recognized, choose a radius from 50 to 500 meters and move the center with a tap.
• Photos in your day film: switch the camera to Photo. Your picture holds still for 3 to 20 seconds in the film and is saved to Photos like your clips. 5 photos a day for free, unlimited with Pro.
• App lock: protect Daytape with Face ID, Touch ID or your passcode. You decide when it asks again, and the app switcher keeps everything covered.
• Search: find moments by title, place and date, with filters for favorites, places, portrait, landscape and photos.
• Your day ends when you want: at midnight or as late as 4 a.m., so a long night still belongs to the day before.
• Camera: tap to focus reacts faster and holds the point, and the first take starts without a brief black frame.
• Daytape lets you know when a new version is ready in the App Store.
• Plus many small improvements and fixes.

### 1.5.3 — 2026-10-02

• Your whole day film now plays free in the app. Without Pro you export the first minute. What's free stays free.
• Camera settings: tap to focus and expose, long press to lock, plus exposure, stabilization, grid and level.
• Record in 4K with Pro.
• Your music keeps playing while you film (iOS 18 and later).
• Start and stop recording with the volume buttons (iOS 17.2 and later).
• Switching cameras shows a soft still instead of black. Flashlight in the camera, recording time at the top center.
• Day film exports keep running when you leave the app (iOS 26 and later), and you choose what shows in the video: time, date, tape counter and PLAY.
• New settings page behind the gear on Profile, with the option to keep the zoom after a take.
• Daytape is now available in Turkish. Plus improvements and bug fixes.

### 1.5 — 2026-09-30

Help us improve Daytape.

• If you allow it, we collect usage data: which features you use and where things get stuck. We never see your videos or photos, and we don't sell your data.
• Daytape asks you once. You can change it anytime in Profile → Settings → Share Analytics.
• Day films with clips in iCloud now start right away with the first clip while the rest loads.
• The date on Today now fits on one line on every iPhone.
• Small improvements and fixes.

### 1.4 — 2026-09-30

Reminders, if you want them.

• If you haven't recorded anything by the afternoon, Daytape reminds you, once a day at most. Now and then also a tip on favorite moments, your day film in the evening and milestones.
• The time adapts to your rhythm, and reminders come less often once recording has become a habit.
• Turn each kind off in Profile → Settings → Reminders. Daytape plans them on your iPhone; nothing leaves your device.
• New: choose the app language in Profile → Settings → Language.

### 1.3 — 2026-09-29

Trim your clips.

• Two handles set where a clip starts and ends, and quiet parts in the middle come out with a tap. The original in Photos stays untouched; reset brings it back at any time. Free: up to 30 seconds per clip, Pro: unlimited.
• If you like, your trims also show up in the Photos app – you decide for each clip.
• Turn a clip 180°. Portrait recordings now always come out upright.
• The day film no longer closes when you swipe by accident; go back with the back button.
• Daytape now speaks ten languages: English, German, Japanese, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Korean, Traditional Chinese and Dutch.
