NEW: Quick-start recording with Action Button. Your footage uploads to Google Drive in real-time - even if your phone is lost or damaged. Try Pro free for 14 days. Your footage survives even if your phone doesn't. Mockingjay is the secure video recorder built for journalists, activists, domestic violence survivors, and anyone who needs protected video documentation. Unlike standard camera apps, your videos upload to Google Drive in real-time during recording - not after. If your phone is lost, damaged, or stolen, your footage is already safe in the cloud. DESIGNED FOR PROTECTION Document important moments, preserve evidence of abuse, capture newsworthy events, or record incidents with AES-256-GCM encryption. Every frame uploads instantly to your Google Drive account - which you control completely. No corporate servers. No third-party access. Your data, your ownership. KEY FEATURES • Real-time encrypted upload - Footage goes to cloud DURING recording, not after • Emergency PIN - Secondary code protects your cloud backup in threatening situations • Quick-start recording - Instant capture via Action Button without entering PIN • Strong encryption - AES-256-GCM protects your videos end-to-end • GPS metadata - Location proof for evidence authenticity (Pro) • Trusted contacts - Share access with people you trust • Your Google Drive - Use your own account, full data ownership • Quality options - Record in 480p, 720p, or 1080p (Pro) • Unlimited history - Access recordings from any date (Pro) WHY MOCKINGJAY Standard camera apps store videos locally - vulnerable to loss if your device is damaged or stolen.

Even if your phone is lost, damaged, or inaccessible, your evidence is already preserved.
