ReelVault – Footage Catalog

ReelVault is a fast, powerful video library browser for filmmakers and videographers. Catalog and search your footage directly on your iPhone, or connect to your ReelVault server to browse a library of any size over Wi-Fi.

No subscriptions. No cloud. Your footage stays yours.

ON-DEVICE LIBRARY Import videos from your Photos library directly into ReelVault. Browse them in a fast thumbnail grid, tag and organize them into collections, and search by metadata — all without a server, all on your iPhone.

CONNECT TO YOUR SERVER Running a ReelVault server on your Mac, Linux machine, or NAS? Connect over Wi-Fi and browse your full archive — thousands of clips with instant thumbnails, rich metadata, and the same powerful search and tagging tools. Your originals stay exactly where they are.

PROFESSIONAL METADATA ReelVault reads what your camera wrote: ProRes, ProRes RAW, HEVC, H.264, log footage, HDR, frame rate, color space, audio channels, creation date, and GPS coordinates. No guessing, no manual entry.

TAGS AND SMART COLLECTIONS Organize clips your way. Tag footage by hand, build manual collections, or create smart collections that automatically group clips by any metadata field — codec, resolution, date range, rating, color label, and more.

UPLOAD TO YOUR SERVER Shoot on iPhone? Send clips from your Photos library directly to your ReelVault server at full resolution. No cables, no AirDrop, no intermediate steps.

BROWSE OFFLINE Downloaded clips from your server are available offline, so you can review your library even when you're away from your network.

The ReelVault server software is free and open source. See reelvault.app for setup instructions.
