Arc Timeline Recorder vs Path

Arc Timeline Recorder is a companion app to Arc Timeline and Arc Mini. Leave Arc Timeline Recorder running in the background, and it will stay in low power standby mode until needed. If Arc Timeline or Arc Mini is terminated, and there is risk of a data gap in your timeline data, Arc Timeline Recorder will take over the recording role, and ensure that timeline recording continues uninterrupted.
