Hindsight: Instant Replay
Clip Gameplay After It Happens
Only for Mac
Free · In‑App Purchases
Mac
Hindsight is instant replay for Mac gaming. A rolling buffer holds the last 15 seconds to 5 minutes of gameplay, and one keyboard shortcut saves it as an MP4 — after the moment happens, not before. If you're looking for the ShadowPlay or Medal workflow on a Mac, this is it, built native for macOS.
CLIP WITH ONE SHORTCUT
• Rolling replay buffer, adjustable from 15 seconds to 5 minutes.
• Press your shortcut and the clip is on disk in about a second — saving remuxes frames the encoder already produced instead of re-rendering them.
• The buffer lives in memory with a fixed cost. Nothing touches your drive until you save.
• Set your own global shortcut. It works while the game has focus.
CHOOSE YOUR AUDIO
• Game audio only: record one app's sound and keep Discord, music, browser tabs, and notifications out of the clip.
• Full system audio: include voice chat and everything your Mac plays when the call is part of the moment.
• Microphone input on its own track, separate from game audio (macOS 15 or later).
• Optional loudness normalization for quiet games, applied on save without touching your live volume.
VIDEO QUALITY CONTROLS
• 30 or 60 fps recording.
• Bitrate control from 8 to 50 Mbps.
• Record at native resolution, or cap it at 1920, 2560, or 3840 pixels to keep files small.
• Hardware encoding runs on the Mac's media engine, not the CPU your game needs.
CAPTURE THE GAME, NOT YOUR DESKTOP
• Record a single window instead of the whole screen. Overlays, chat, and notifications stay out of the clip.
• Works with native Mac games, Steam, CrossOver, Parallels, emulators, and browser games.
EDIT WITHOUT LEAVING THE APP
• Built-in clip library, organized by day, with favorites and renaming.
• Trim clips without re-encoding — no quality loss, instant saves.
• Export GIFs for Discord and social.
• Clips are ordinary MP4 files in a folder you choose. No account, no upload, no cloud; Hindsight works with the network off.
Try every feature free for 14 days. Hindsight Pro then continues at $19.99 a year, or buy it once for $29.99 and never renew. Cancel the trial any time in the App Store and you pay nothing. Every clip you already saved remains yours. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account; subscriptions renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period.

Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
• The library header now shows the total running time of your clips, and it follows the Favorites and per-game filters.
• Your trial is easier to keep track of: the menu bar shows the days left, and the price is stated up front.
• When a trial runs out, the clip you were reaching for still saves (with a small wordmark) before Hindsight asks you to continue.
• Hindsight Pro is now available as a yearly subscription with a 14-day free trial, alongside the one-time purchase.
• A quiet banner in the library lets you know when a newer version is on the App Store.
