Just 3 seconds. No complicated editing — your daily vlog, effortlessly stylish. For your own record, or to share with family and friends. This is kirok. "I want one habit that actually sticks." "I take photos, but I never look back at them." "I want to stay loosely connected with someone far away." All of that, in 3 seconds. ■ Three ways to use it. All free. [Solo vlog] Capture the moment in 3 seconds. As many times a day as you like. Every clip stays in your library, ready to revisit anytime. [Themed Solo Rooms] Your cat. Gym. Meals. Your kid growing up. A trip. Make a private Room for each theme and collect only what fits. Just for you. No one else sees it. [Group Rooms with friends, partners, family] Share your daily 3 seconds on an invite-only timeline. Everyone's "today" lines up by time of day. Use it only when you feel like it. Shared videos auto-delete after 7 days. Toss them in, let them flow. Save what you want to keep to your own library. ■ How people actually use it Solo: - A small daily record - A Room dedicated to your cat - Daily running or workout logs - Daily food and cooking logs - A Room collecting 3 seconds from each trip - Watching your kid grow up With others: - Trading daily 3 seconds with a long-distance partner - A family group sharing daily moments with parents back home - Daily vlogs with your closest two or three friends - Sharing events and gigs with hobby friends ■ Why 3 seconds? Short enough to keep going. Short enough to stay fun. Tap, and it stops by itself — no overthinking the shot. But when you look back, the feeling of that moment is still there. ■ What happens after you record? It's saved. That's it. No filters. No trimming. No music picker. No sound. Zero time spent deciding — that's why it sticks. Silent by design, so you can share to social without asking anyone to unmute. On the train, in bed at night, next to anyone. ■ recap Stitch your kirok clips into one continuous video. Today, a week, a month, a year, or your whole life in kirok — pick any range. Watch it whenever you feel like it. That's all it does. ■ Features - Camera that auto-stops at 3 seconds - Time stamp (HH:mm) shown automatically on playback, also burned into exported videos - Country code (e.g., · JP) auto-added when the recording location's timezone differs from playback - Captions (60 characters, editable later) - Unlimited Solo Rooms (your own themed Rooms) - 1 Group Room on Free (invite-only shared timeline, 7-day auto-delete) - recap (today, week, month, year, life — any range) - Personal/Solo Rooms sync across iOS devices via iCloud (optional) - Silent share, easy to drop into social - 11 languages (JP / EN / KO / ZH / ES / PT / FR / DE / IT / ID / Hindi) ■ kirok Pro Monthly $2.99 / Yearly $19.99 / Lifetime $34.99 * Prices may vary by region and currency. - Unlimited Group Rooms (Free: 1 created, unlimited joins on both plans) - Unlimited daily recordings (Free: 5 per day) - Coral border + watermark removed on export (clean export) - Custom recap with 10+ clips (Free: up to 10) Subscriptions auto-renew.

About

VlogLinik

Features
Read full description

VlogLinik is a camera and video editor that turns short everyday moments into one vertical Vlog. Capture photos or 2, 5, 7, 10-second and Free videos, or add media from your photo library. Two-second clips make food, outfits, travel, and daily life feel quick and rhythmic. Reorder clips with a long press, remove any clip, choose cuts or crossfades, and place capture times and comments in the center or lower area. Add optional background music while keeping your selected track and volume even when BGM is turned off. In Voice-over Studio, watch the connected video from the beginning while recording narration. Keep a private script beside the preview; it helps during recording and is never burned into the exported video. Natural Face gently reduces close-range front-camera perspective without enlarging eyes, whitening skin, or reshaping the face. Distance Guide independently suggests a more natural camera distance. Both features can be turned on or off. Export the finished 9:16 video directly to Photos. VlogLinik does not open social apps, upload your projects to a team server, or create sharing links. Free users may see one interstitial ad only after tapping export. VlogLinik Plus removes that export ad for the App Store price shown for the monthly subscription. Purchases can be restored and subscriptions can be managed or canceled through the App Store. Terms of Use (Apple Standard EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
