R3CAP is a lightweight daily recap app designed to help you capture small moments and watch them grow into meaningful memories over time. Record just one to three seconds a day or choose a short clip from your photo library. Each day becomes part of a larger story that you can revisit through weekly, monthly, and yearly recap videos. R3CAP is built to stay out of your way. There are no accounts, no analytics, and no tracking. All videos are stored locally on your device and the app works fully offline. Profiles let you organize different parts of your life such as family, work, fitness, or travel. Each profile keeps its own timeline so your moments stay focused and easy to revisit. Free users can create weekly recaps with a limited number of exports. R3CAP Pro unlocks unlimited exports along with monthly and yearly recap ranges, giving you full control over how you relive your moments. R3CAP is simple, private, and designed to help you remember what mattered.
