Your whole year, one second a day. Saga turns a second or two of every day into a video you'll actually want to rewatch. Add a short clip each day, see your life fill in on a calendar, and when the year ends, press Play on all of it. Most days aren't big events. They're a coffee on the balcony, a walk home, a kid laughing at dinner. They're also the days you forget first. Saga keeps them. ONE CLIP A DAY • Add a short video from your camera roll to any day in seconds • Pick the moment that best sums up the day as its highlight • Trim, rotate and frame each clip so it's just right • Missed a day? Fill it in later — every day stays open • When you start, Saga previews your last four weeks as a reel, one second a day, picked on your phone • Autofill fills a month's empty days at once with each day's best second, picked on your phone YOUR LIFE ON A CALENDAR • Every day you capture appears on a calendar you can scroll through • Tap any date to rewatch exactly what that day looked like • Keep separate journals for different parts of your life • Import a whole album of short clips at once to catch up PRESS PLAY ON YOUR YEAR • Turn any date range into one continuous recap video • One tap for This Year, Last Year or All Time — or choose custom dates • Show the date on every clip so you always know when it was • Export in portrait or landscape, up to 4K • Share your finished recap with family and friends, or keep it for yourself KEEP THE HABIT • A gentle daily reminder, with a fresh prompt each day if you want one • A Home Screen widget shows whether today is captured yet • Your year at a glance shows how your story is growing PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Saga is a personal journal, not a social network. There's no feed, no followers and no likes. Your days are yours; you decide what to share. Saga Pro, an optional subscription, unlocks 4K recap exports, removes the “Made with Saga” mark and keeps your highlights backed up in Saga Cloud. You can also back up to your Photos library. Start today. In a year, you'll have 365 seconds of your own life to look back on. Capture life, one second at a time.

About

VeeJam

Read full description

VeeJam is a new-generation video editing app with a video sampler. With one music track and two videos, you can create a single video almost like playing an instrument. With typical video editing apps, arranging clips on a timeline can get tiring, and it’s easy to lose the fresh feeling you had when you first captured those moments. That’s why we made VeeJam. VeeJam has no timeline — only the moment. VeeJam is built around live editing, so it doesn’t focus on detailed edits like fades or text captions. Even so, we think video editing professionals can use it intuitively for quick pre-editing on iPhone or iPad, right after shooting. It also includes features for professional users, such as external monitor output via USB-C and export to Adobe Premiere. Mute the noise and experience a new generation of video editing.
