Earlier quoted context omitted.

iOS has a file browser called Files. I believe this is an attempt at trying to level up the Voice Memos feature which has been neglected compared to other OS features.

It just makes you wonder why Apple is so behind with its apps. I remember when Android was the one struggling to catch up, but now the tables have turned. A friend of mine was able to remove people from a photo ages ago, something that only recently came to iOS. Apple spent so much time and money on those 3D avatars, but honestly, who's using them? I mean, 8-year-olds don't even have iPhones, right? Apple could take…

These all really good points. And also really good ideas. I think they're going half heartedly going the way you envisage (i speculate). Mimojis are pretty fun but literally It's an app my 3 year old wants to use. Runway ML has an awesome realisation of some of your ideas, well worth having a look at... Apple allowing developers to access their own AI on device foundation model is apparently a step ahead, but at the same time so much power is being kept under the surface that would be amazing to actually use. I love your thoughts and thinking btw.

I think "behind" because they are risk averse and short of a unifying vision atm. Share holder satisfaction and unimaginative decision making perhaps?

I don't get it? It sounds like it just creates a recording and saves this in a video format with some visual, which is alright I guess. Perhaps it's because I'm more of an Android person, but does ios really not have a file browser?!?!

You basically hit the nail on the head. This app sounds like it would have no purpose to Android users, since the only purpose is to work around a really dumb limitation of iOS that Android doesn't suffer from.

I want to turn on audio or video recording in a way that is not reversible. Being able to start the camera without unlocking the phone is a good step, but you can also delete the footage just recorded if someone apprehends your device. I would be interested in the option to not be able to delete that footage. I would also be interested in being able to live-broadcast (maybe just audio?) to someone else's device to pr…

Good idea. I wonder if it exists in their emergency app if not it should.

Interesting idea but the page needs a gallery or something so you can get an idea of what the results look like. Right now there's an abstract image and a picture of a mountain range. Were both of those made with the app?

No, unfortunately placeholders that I have since replaced. Thanks for highlighting this.

Is that website design the default template of something? I'm sure I've seen loads that look exactly like this, but with different AI products as content

Looks like generated with Claude

Great spot, Replit and Claude. But, I have just tried to make it less generic so hopefully not a complete embarrassment now.

A neat idea that I need (I want my Google Photos to backup my recordings too), but instantly killed the tab when I saw that AI animated character in that "see it in action" video. Call me irrational, but I can't stand the look of those things.

I'll just backup my audio recordings to Dropbox (Android).

The App Store gallery features a short video of how Just Send Record works. The output video has a “Made with Just Send Record” watermark. Is there an in-app way to omit or remove this watermark?

That image wad from a beta. The version I released has no Watermarks. I figured if I was paying for this app id be a bit annoyed if it had a watermark so I just got rid of it.

Not an Apple user so can't try, but wanted to weigh in and share that I think this is a brilliant idea and I can easily see it taking off with creators across many domains. I can also see Apple adding it as a feature in a future Camera app release, so ymmv on the upside.

Thanks so much for the positive comment. It solves a frustration of mine, and I wanted to take it into my own hands.
