Shred Snap is a timer camera app built for ski and snowboard training. Press the record button and the app records for your chosen duration, then stops automatically. Capture only the moment you land your trick, and once recording ends, the app automatically switches to power-saving mode. This helps conserve your battery during long hike-ups and in cold conditions. Review your run instantly, then get ready for the next one. Useful features Want to keep your gloves on? → Start recording by tapping the screen or pressing a volume button Need time to get into position? → Set a recording delay Want better image quality or smaller file sizes? → Choose the resolution and frame rate Want a closer look at your form? → Record in slow motion Want to remember what you noticed? → Add notes to your videos Front camera supported --- “Record. Review. Improve.” Shred Snap was created to make that training routine effortless. We train too, so we keep refining everything from the overall design to the smallest interactions until it feels right. Have a feature request or found something that could be easier to use?
