We have lost touch crafting perfect videos for social media, and Flipcorder encourages you to take shorter "flips" of 20 seconds each throughout your day to enjoy as a home video at the end of the day. No editing, just shoot and enjoy in VHS or DV style. Made for iPhone Duo, works on any iPhone. $4.99 once. No ads, no subscription, no watermark, no account.

Film small moments through your day, 20 seconds at a time. No editing, nothing removed. Tonight you can save one raw film of it. A retro camcorder for iPhone.

Film little moments all day, 20 seconds at a time. Nothing is edited out. Tonight you can save one raw film of it. A retro camcorder for iPhone. Press the glowing POWER key and the viewfinder warms up like an old TV. On iPhone Duo, opening the fold does it. By default it stops by itself at 20 seconds, with a quiet countdown. On iPhone Duo, the person you’re filming sees themselves on the outside screen, in the same retro look, with a REC light so they know when to wave. Close it mid-flip and it’s saved before the camcorder powers down, on today’s tape. Reached #3 in Top Paid , · Photo & Video , on the US App Store , · October 2026 . Flipcorder is for catching small moments through your day.…from flipcorder.app
