## What is Live TimeStamp Camera?

=== DESCRIPTION (4000 max) ===
Record video with the date and time burned right into the picture, live and ticking every second, so there's never any question about when it was filmed.

Built for documenting things that need a time record: idling trucks and buses, parking and traffic problems, deliveries, property conditions, and anything else you may need to prove later.

LIVE DATE AND TIME STAMP
• Drawn onto the video as you record, ticking every second
• White text on a dark rounded pill, easy to read in any light
• Choose the position (any corner, top or bottom center) and size (small, medium, large)
• Five date formats and a 12- or 24-hour clock
• What you see in the viewfinder is exactly what's recorded

NEVER LOSES SOUND
• Won't record without microphone access
• Live sound meter. The record button stays off until sound is coming in
• Clear warning if sound stops during a recording
• Uses the iPhone's own microphone even when AirPods are connected, because headset mics filter out background sounds like engines
• Every saved video is checked to make sure the sound covers the whole recording

RECORDINGS PROTECTED
• Saved continuously while recording, and recovered automatically if the app or phone stops unexpectedly
• Ringing phone calls don't stop the recording (with incoming calls set to Banner)
• Checks storage, battery and temperature before you start, and stops and saves safely before a problem can cut a recording off
• Screen stays awake while recording
• Optional minimum length (3 minutes or 1 minute) with a timer that turns green when your video is long enough

EASY TO USE
• Saves straight to Photos
• Zoom buttons and pinch to zoom, for reading license plates and signs from a distance
• Tap to focus
• 1080p or 4K, HEVC or H.264

COMPRESS FOR UPLOAD
Many complaint and upload forms limit file size. Compress for upload makes a smaller copy that fits your limit (130 MB by default, adjustable), keeps the date and time stamp and the sound, and saves it to Photos next to the original.

FREE TRIAL, THEN A ONE-TIME UNLOCK
Every feature is free for 3 days. After the trial, recording, the live date and time stamp, and saving to Photos stay free forever. Only Compress for upload needs the one-time unlock. No subscription, no ads, no account.

PRIVATE
Everything happens on your iPhone. The app collects no data and has no tracking or ads.

Live TimeStamp Camera is an independent app and is not affiliated with any government agency.
