Sport Recorder: Instant Replay

Now works with Bluetooth shutter remotes. Phone on a tripod, remote in your pocket with one press saves the last 15, 30, or 60 seconds, and the flash blinks to confirm.

Save the play after it happens.

Sport Recorder is a focused iPhone camera for sports parents, coaches, and athletes. It helps you capture the moments that matter without filling Photos with long recordings and missed plays.

AUTO REC

Turn on Auto Rec before the action starts. While Sport Recorder is open and Auto Rec is running, it keeps recent video ready on your iPhone. When the goal, spike, save, finish, or great play happens, tap the shutter afterward and keep the most recent 15, 30, or 60 seconds.

BLUETOOTH REMOTE

Pair any Bluetooth camera shutter remote in iOS Settings, switch the remote on in Sport Recorder, and put the phone down. Start a recording, stop it, or save the recent Auto Rec clip without touching the screen.

Choose how many presses it takes to save or stop. Single Press is the default: one press, one clip, and it never depends on how fast you can click twice. Double Press is there if you would rather a stray press in a pocket could not save a clip or end a take — and Settings includes a test that tells you whether your particular remote can send two presses quickly enough for it. Starting a recording is always a single press.

Turn on Flash Confirmation and the camera light answers you from across the court: one flash started recording, three flashes saved a clip, two flashes mean nothing happened.

ON THE TRIPOD

Clip your iPhone to a tripod at the end of the bench, turn on Auto Rec, and put the remote in your pocket. Now you are watching the game with your own eyes instead of through a screen.

When the spike drops, the runner beats the throw, or the shot finally falls, you press the button in your hand. The last 30 seconds are already saved. No sprinting back to the phone. No scrubbing through an hour of footage on the drive home. By the time the next serve goes up, the highlight is in Photos and you never left your seat.

STANDARD RECORD

Need the full drill, rally, or sequence? Turn off Auto Rec and use the familiar start-and-stop recording mode, from the screen or from the remote.

DELETE MISSES FAST

If the play was not a keeper, delete the new clip from the post-save tagging screen and get ready for the next moment.

ORGANIZE KEEPERS IN PHOTOS

Create up to five custom tags for players, teams, moments, or review categories. Choosing a tag adds the saved clip to a matching album in Apple Photos, so your highlights stay easy to find using the tools already on your iPhone.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

No account and no developer data collection. Camera, microphone, and Photos access are used only for recording, saving, deleting, and organizing your videos on your device. The Bluetooth remote pairs in iOS Settings and needs no additional permission — Sport Recorder never scans for nearby devices.

Auto Rec must be turned on before the action you want to save. It does not record in the background, and neither does the remote.
