DayTapes

DayTapes turns every day into one tape — a vertical roll of photos, 3-second loops, and sticker cut-outs that play back like a film of your life. Catch your day in tiny moments, then watch it spin past like a reel. THREE WAYS TO CAPTURE • Tap for a photo • Hold for a 3-second living loop • Cut to isolate any subject — a coin, a receipt, a houseplant — and save it as a sticker forever A GROWING COLLECTION Every Cut you take lands in your Collection — a loose-leaf album of every object you thought was worth keeping. Stick them on carousels later, or just keep them. Nothing else does this. FIVE WAYS TO RELIVE A DAY • Comic — your moments auto-composed into a comic-book page, panels and all • Carousel — three scrapbook slides with subject cut-out stickers, glitter and polychrome • PunchCard — a 9:16 vertical tape of your day, built for Instagram Stories • Live Tape — a tall video that plays your whole day back as one continuous looping reel • Tapegram — an animated 1080×1350 grid collage. Every loop alive, frozen at just the right moment. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No accounts. No cloud. No tracking. No ads. No analytics. Every photo, loop, sticker, and tape stays only on your device. Subject isolation for cut-outs runs entirely on-device using Apple's Vision framework — no image is ever uploaded anywhere. A DAILY RITUAL, NOT A FEED DayTapes has no followers, no likes, no algorithm. Just open it through the day and catch what's happening. Watch the streak fill in across a clean monthly grid.
