## What is Kodama?

Kodama is a secure, offline-first voice recording app designed to help you safely capture important moments — even in sensitive situations.

- **Always-on buffer**: Continuously records to a rolling buffer so you never miss a moment.  
- **Background recording**: Keep recording even when your screen is locked or the app is closed.  
- **Clip and save**: Instantly save the last few minutes of audio from your buffer.  
- **Encrypted and offline**: All recordings are stored locally on your device, encrypted for your safety.  
- **Pro features**: Longer buffer (5/10/30/60 min), automatic cleanup, markers, and smaller file sizes.

Kodama is designed for privacy and safety — no cloud storage, no analytics, and no tracking. You are always in control of when and how you record.
