About this app

SafeCam - SOS Background Screen, Camera, and Voice Recorder


SafeCam is a quick, discreet personal safety recorder that unifies a screen recorder, background video recorder (front and back camera, no preview), and a voice recorder. Start in an instant, capture clear evidence quietly, and keep recording with the screen off (device-dependent). Use SafeCam to document unsafe rides, harassment, accidents, or any moment where trustworthy proof matters.


What SafeCam can record

Screen recording with system audio when allowed by your device/OS; otherwise microphone audio

Back camera video: quick background capture with no camera preview

Front camera video: quick selfie-view recording without preview

Audio-only: lightweight voice recorder for long sessions


Fast, discreet SOS triggers

Quick Tile in the notification shade

Home-screen Shortcut for your preferred mode

Long-press volume up/down to start/stop

Shake to start for pocket or one-hand use

Floating icon (single/double/long touch)

Tap on notch actions on supported devices

Configure triggers per mode so your muscle memory gets you recording immediately.


Reliability when it counts

Screen-off & background recording to reduce attention and save battery

Time-stamped filenames for credibility and quick retrieval

Auto-save & crash recovery to preserve files if interrupted

Quality controls — choose resolution, frame rate, and bitrate (device-dependent)

Orientation lock and front/back camera chooser

Local-only saves by default; share securely via Android’s share sheet

Designed for safety, privacy, and the rules

SafeCam is a personal safety tool, not a spy app. It respects device policies and does not attempt to hide required system indicators. Recording laws vary by country and state, only record where legal and with consent when required. Do not use SafeCam for harassment, stalking, or any invasive surveillance.


Where SafeCam helps

• Rides and commutes: capture surroundings and route info with screen + camera

• Disputes and incidents: document interactions using front/back video

• Online issues: record on-screen messages and reports with the screen recorder

• Field work and deliveries: time-stamped video notes and audio memos


Why choose SafeCam?

Most apps handle only one job. SafeCam combines screen recorder, background video recorder, and voice recorder with instant SOS triggers, so you waste zero time in emergencies. Pick a mode, press a tile or button, or just shake—and your evidence is recording.
