SnapLatch
One-Tap Video Recorder
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Instantly record the moment: open SnapLatch to start a visible video recording, switch cameras, and save to Photos.
SnapLatch is the camera for the moment that is already happening.
Open SnapLatch and it starts a clearly visible video recording right away. A large timer and stop control stay on screen, so you always know when you are recording. Stop when you are done and save the clip directly to Photos.
Use it for a quick reaction, a street scene, a pet moment, or any memory you want to capture without navigating through a camera app first.
Features:
- Start a visible recording when SnapLatch opens
- Record clips up to 2 minutes
- Switch between front and rear cameras during a recording
- Stop anytime with a clear on-screen control
- Save videos directly to Photos
- Keep a clip ready to save if Photos access needs to be enabled
- Launch with the iPhone Action Button or Shortcuts
SnapLatch is designed for fast, intentional capture. It never records secretly or in the background. Videos stay on your device and are never uploaded.
