About this app

Background Video Recorder lets you record video hands-free. Tap once to start, then lock your phone or switch to another app and it keeps recording. You can even turn the screen off to save battery while it records.

Made for everyday, lawful recording with your own device: capturing a moment or note for yourself, a lecture or meeting you're taking part in, dashcam-style clips on the road, or keeping an eye on your own home, room, or property.

SCHEDULE IT

STAYS ON YOUR DEVICE
