Version 7.1
There is no worse feeling than wrapping up a perfect interview and realizing that *at some point* recording just... stopped. How can this even happen in 2024? The answer is surprisingly, more ways than we thought. Anything that has the potential to temporarily take the device's focus could interrupt your footage. Causes range from overheating, to getting a phone call, to simply an alert from another app.
So what can we do about it? Unfortunately it's beyond our power to block most of these things. What we can do, however, is give you a giant warning that you can't possibly miss, that something has gone awry. Now when recording is interrupted for ANY reason, REC lets you know in three distinct ways.
1. An alert on the screen. This visual cue should make it very obvious that something has gone wrong. But what if you're not behind the camera, but in front of it?
2. An audio alert. If you're not looking at the screen, this is your first line of defense as an indication of a problem. But there are ways to miss this as well, if the device is silenced or the interruption itself produces audio.
3. Flashing lights. The last line of defense. Even if you're in front of the camera, and the device is silenced, it will be difficult to miss the device's flashlight lighting up several times.
All three of these alerts happen simultaneously, so you're aware the instant that there's a problem. But what can you do to prevent problems in the first place? You can try putting your device in airplane mode, to reduce the risk of incoming calls or messages. Completely closing all apps in the background may help REC retain focus. And denying permission to any non-critical notifications will help reduce the likelihoood of receiving one during a crucial moment. But when all else fails, we will make absolutely sure you know that an interruption has occurred.

Version 7.0.9
This version adds some minor bug corrections.
In recent versions, for our users with iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max, we brought you the ability to record in Apple LOG when using ProRes, unlocking a new level of creative control and flexibility in your video production. We’re thrilled to introduce this exciting enhancement in REC! In addition we added USB-C external storage for iPhone 15 Pro! With REC 7.0, we’re focusing on optimizing your workflow by introducing the best way to record to an external disk via USB-C. While iOS 17 introduced the ability to record to external drives, we’ve taken that idea a step (or two) further.
External Recording Enhancements:
- Format Freedom: Unlike the default camera app, REC allows you to record to an external disk in any format, not just ProRes.
- Seamless Integration: Simply choose to prefer saving to an external disk, when available. REC will manage the recording process automatically.
- Integrated External Disk Speed Test: Normally, recording to an external disk is a bit of a black box. If you have a slower disk frames can be dropped without warning, leading to choppy video files. With REC however, you can easily access a disk speed test from the settings menu to determine which formats will work best for your drive.
- Frame Loss Protection: If for some reason frames are being dropped while recording to an external drive, REC will alert you with a warning, so you can resolve the issue before wasting too much precious light.
Other Benefits of Recording to an External Disk:
- No Regrets: With recording to an external disk, you can now record for extended periods without worrying about running out of internal storage space.
- Optimized Workflow: Forget long transfer times, simply unplug your drive from your iPhone and plug it into your preferred editing computer. That's it!
As always, your feedback is invaluable to us. If you have suggestions, questions, or encounter any issues while using REC, please don't hesitate to reach out to our support team via the in-app bug reporter or support@latenitesoft.com. We're committed to continuously improving your video shooting experience.
