Kids don't warn you before their first steps. Dogs don't announce the zoomies. And nobody lands the trick while you're still opening the camera. Blinkback fixes that. While the camera is open it keeps a rolling buffer of the last several seconds. When something great happens, tap record β€” or just say "Blink it" β€” and your clip starts in the PAST, before you pressed the button, then keeps recording until you stop. One smooth video, saved straight to your Photos. It's the replay-buffer trick that broadcast sports and streamers use, finally in a camera anyone can use. CATCH THE MOMENT THAT ALREADY HAPPENED β€’ Reach up to 60 seconds into the past β€’ One tap saves everything from before you pressed record β€’ No stitching, no glitch β€” just one clean clip HANDS-FREE SAVING β€’ Say "Blink it!" and the clip saves itself β€’ "Blink stop" (or the record button) ends a recording β€’ Works with "Hey Siri, Blink it" too MADE FOR REAL MOMENTS β€’ Pinch to zoom up to 10x β€” even while recording β€’ Slow-mo: 120 frames per second, played back slower to study the moment β€’ Up to 4K quality with clear sound β€’ Auto orientation β€” clips always play the right way up REVIEW AND SHARE β€’ Built-in gallery with full-screen playback β€’ Draw over any frame with the telestrator pen β€” great for coaching β€’ Save an annotated frame, or share a clip anywhere PRIVATE BY DESIGN β€’ No account, no cloud, no tracking β€’ Everything is captured and saved on your device β€’ Voice detection runs entirely on your phone Try it free, then subscribe to keep saving without limits.
