## Description

Background Video Recorder (BCAM) is a free, easy-to-use app that records in the background—even when the screen is off. It captures full HD 1080p video with no active camera preview and supports both front and rear cameras, storing footage locally on your device.

Key features include **One-Tap Recording**, **Screen-Off Mode**, **App Lock (PIN)**, **Intruder Selfie & Alarm**, **Quick Toggle**, and **Private Storage**. Use cases emphasize legitimate, consent-based recording—such as lectures, meetings, personal moments, or dashcam-like road trips—with an optional Premium plan for ad-free use.
