Prewind — Instant Replay Camera
Open Prewind and the camera starts remembering. Something happens, you press the button, and the last few seconds are already saved. iPhone and iPad, iOS 17 or later.
For the moments that are over before you can hit record — a goal, a golf swing, a perfect wave, the dog's best trick.
Highlights
-
Capture without looking
With Prewind open, press a volume button (iOS 17.2 or later) or Camera Control, or say "Capture with Prewind" to Siri. You can also assign Prewind's "Capture the Moment" shortcut to the Action button.
-
REC — extended recording
Pro: Record clips up to 30 minutes long. Each recording starts with what your buffer already holds — up to about 2 minutes before you press REC.
-
Private by design
Prewind never uploads your footage. Captured clips go straight to your Photos library, and footage you don't capture stays on your device, where newer footage replaces it as the buffer moves on. No analytics, no account, no ads.
