Live2play

Live2play turns your iPhone into a camera built for playing, not for filming. Open it and the camera is already live, vertical and in focus. One big button starts the take. When you stop, the clip is already in your Photos. Nothing stands between the idea and the record button — because inspiration leaves while you fiddle with settings. ONE-TAP REEL • Vertical camera, live the moment the app opens. • One button = start/stop. Clips auto-save to their own album. • Tap anywhere to focus and meter there, lock exposure, nudge EV. • Start a take from a hardware button or a Siri shortcut. THE SOUND YOU ACTUALLY WANT • Choose your input: built-in mic, a USB-C interface, or Bluetooth. • Or send a clean master mix from your computer over WiFi and record that instead of room noise — no more phone-mic mush over a good performance. • Other apps keep playing, so you can monitor while you record. YOUR BODY BECOMES THE INSTRUMENT • Body, hand and face tracking runs entirely on the device and draws a live overlay on top of you. • Map your movement to the built-in synth and play it by moving. • Or send gesture MIDI to your computer over the local network and drive your own rig. LOOPS AND COLLAGE • Layer takes into a synced loop grid — in phase, with time-stretch. • Arrange the loops as a collage and burn the result into the recording. GO LIVE • Push the take straight to YouTube Live, or any RTMP/RTMPS server you point it at. EDIT ON THE PHONE • Trim, merge and re-render your clips without leaving the app. PRIVACY No account, no sign-up, no ads. Camera frames are analysed on your iPhone and are never uploaded. The app sends a single anonymous launch counter (a random install id, never your identity or content) so we know it is being used. Nothing else leaves the device unless you start a live stream to a server you chose yourself. Requires iPhone with iOS 17 or later.

About

EXIF Metadata Scrubber

Features
Read full description

Share a moment from your life without including every detail stored in the photo file. Private Photo Scrubber helps you see supported photo metadata, create a sharing copy, and check that copy again. Keep your original photo and its memories for yourself. CHECK BEFORE YOU SHARE See supported location, capture time, device and software details, plus description and copyright fields. If a field is unknown or cannot be checked, the app tells you. CREATE A SEPARATE COPY Create a new JPEG from a supported JPEG or HEIC/HEIF photo. The app checks the output before offering it for saving or sharing. Your original is not overwritten. START WITH ONE PHOTO Inspect one photo at a time for free. Create one checked sharing copy each day. Checks can continue after the daily copy allowance is used. Failed checks and photos with no supported fields to remove do not use a successful-copy allowance. LIFETIME PRO FOR BATCHES Work with up to 20 photos per batch, save checked copies together, and view local run summaries. One purchase. No subscription. Your local price is shown before purchase. Existing purchases can be restored. PHOTO PROCESSING STAYS ON YOUR IPHONE No photo upload or account is needed for the core task. App Store purchases and restoration connect to Apple. Local history stores counts and outcomes, not your photos or metadata values. KNOW WHAT CHANGES Outputs are JPEG copies. Format, file size and color may change. PNG, RAW, video and full Live Photo pairs are outside the current processing support. In-app size limits apply. Checks cover the supported fields the app reads. Visible details in the picture, unknown fields, and information added by another service are outside that promise. Removing metadata does not make a photo anonymous or prevent someone from forwarding it.
