## Description

Plug in that old SD card. Tapeless converts your 2000s camcorder clips so they finally play on your iPhone — with their real recording dates.

That box of SD cards from your old camcorder? The .MOD files on them won't play on a modern phone — iPhones simply can't open them. Tapeless fixes that, entirely on your iPhone.

Point it at your card (or AirDrop the files over) and Tapeless finds every clip, shows you real previews, and converts them to standard video that plays anywhere. Converted clips are saved straight into your Photos library — filed under the date you actually shot them, read from the camcorder's own sidecar files, so your 2007 beach trip lands in 2007.

RETRO DATE STAMP
Want the classic look? Burn the original date and time into the corner of the picture — white VCR lettering, just like the tapes you grew up with.

MADE FOR OLD CAMCORDERS
• Imports .MOD and .TOD files (JVC, Canon, Panasonic hard-disk and SD camcorders of the 2000s)
• Keeps the original recording date and time, to the second
• Smooths out the interlaced "comb" look from tube-TV-era video
• Widescreen footage comes out at the correct shape, never stretched
• Preview clips before converting — with scrubbing
• Clear-the-card option after everything is safely in Photos

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Everything happens on your iPhone. Your footage never touches a server, and Tapeless collects no data at all.

Your first conversions are free. One inexpensive purchase unlocks unlimited conversions forever — no subscription.
