Gesture-Controlled Video Cam

Features & Capabilities

Raise to record. Lower to stop. Review on the spot. Share the highlights at the event — youth sports, professional sports, concerts, weddings, parties, pets.

UpTakes Video Camera App — the patented gesture-controlled video camera that records when you raise your phone and stops when you lower it. No buttons. No menus. No missed moments.

Perfect for parents filming youth sports — football, soccer, basketball, baseball, lacrosse — capturing live events, or recording any fast-moving action. UpTakes uses patented motion-sensing technology to start and stop recording automatically based on how you hold your phone. Just raise to record, lower to stop — it's that simple.

How it works: Raise your phone → recording starts automatically Lower your phone → recording stops Review your clip instantly → swipe to keep or delete

Why parents love UpTakes: -Never miss a play fumbling with record buttons -Film in portrait or landscape — switch with one tap -Review and delete bad clips on the sideline -Go home with just the highlights — no more sifting through hours of footage later -Auto-save or auto-delete mode — customize your workflow -End trim automatically removes the lowering motion from each clip -Records at 4K with full stabilization, multi-lens zoom, and flash support

Built for the sideline: UpTakes was designed for parents who spend weekends filming their kids' games and then never have time to sort through the footage. Record only what matters, decide instantly, and go home with just the highlights.

*Update* After using the app for 2 weeks, I like using it, still debating if it's worth paying a subscription especially when I don't really see what your paying extra for on top of just purchasing the app, there's no cloud storage or anything except use of your iPhone camera.... Time will tell It's a good app, it's simple enough to use but can use a little explanation on settings & features. I also don't see what you're subscribing to, I'd gladly buy the app because it works as advertised but what am I paying yearly for??

I’ve only used it for two youth soccer games so far but it’s saved me so much time already. Like others, I usually record with the camera app and after game go through watching clips and deleting what I don’t need. This app takes all that away and leaves with just what you want! The only slight issues I have is in dark mode it’s very hard to see the exit button in the settings and not sure why the first couple frames are blurry. For wishlist, if saving the video could be done in the background that would be great to get back to recording quicker and maybe even a send to app (like instagram) for quicker highlight posting. Last wish the zoom quick buttons could be customized Edit: I have been using this app for many months now, and it’s even more amazing now than when I wrote my original review. The developer has made fantastic updates and the app runs very smooth and always works. This has saved my hours and hours. I have recommended it to every parent I can and will continue to do so.
