Tessera - Car Black Box
Record. Review. Share.
Only for iPhone
Free · In‑App Purchases
iPhone
Record the road. Review the moment. Share original video or an incident dossier. Free clip recording, with a one-time unlock for dossier features.
Turn your iPhone into a car dash cam. Record the road while Tessera is open, save moments that matter, and review what was captured on your device.
START WITH FREE RECORDING
• Loop recording with automatic rolling-buffer management.
• Save a clip with a tap or a Siri command.
• See recording status, speed when available, and supported camera framing controls.
• Follow a first-drive guide for permissions, framing and a test save.
ONE-TIME UNLOCK: INCIDENT DOSSIERS
• Automatic incident detection with adjustable sensitivity. Detection is an estimate and may miss events or trigger unnecessarily.
• Signed incident dossiers with video, motion and location data when available.
• A coverage timeline showing recorded clips and missing portions of the requested window.
• On-device generated summaries on supported devices, with a factual template fallback, plus machine-read text when available.
• Share an evidence ZIP, selected original videos, or a readable PDF summary.
UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU SHARE
An evidence package brings together the original clips, recorded core data, available signature and public key, a PDF and verification instructions. You can choose whether to include diagnostics. Video-only sharing keeps selected original clips separate and unchanged.
Signatures and file hashes help detect changes to recorded evidence. They do not prove identity, fault, location accuracy or a trusted capture time. Generated summaries and recognized text can be wrong and are not authenticated by the core signature.
LOCAL BY DESIGN
No Tessera account or cloud storage is required. Recording and saved-evidence review work offline. You choose when and where to share; exports may include location, audio and other identifying details. Purchases and restoration use Apple's StoreKit services.
BEFORE YOU DRIVE
Mount your phone securely and complete setup before setting off. Camera recording requires Tessera to remain open in the foreground; it pauses when the camera is interrupted or the app goes into the background. CarPlay controls and automation guidance do not enable background camera recording.
Free clip recording. Optional one-time purchase for incident dossiers. No subscription.
