Life as it happens
Friends, family, pets, and quiet routines.
Everyday video storytelling
Capture a few seconds at a time. String automatically connects your short clips into seamless videos you can shape, keep, or share.
For everyday life—and whatever you're making.

Capture without the pressure
String is made for brief moments, not long recording sessions. Record one, two, or three seconds when something catches your eye, then get back to what you're doing.
Morning light. A coffee with a friend. A rehearsal. The work before the finished thing. A few seconds can be enough.

How it works
String keeps your clips in order and plays them together as one. Choose what to include, add captions, then save the finished video.

Record one-, two-, or three-second clips without leaving the moment for long.
Each new clip joins the sequence, so you can watch your story build as you go.
Trim, hide, and caption your clips. Then save or share the finished video.
Made for more than one kind of moment
The same simple habit can capture ordinary life, a meaningful occasion, or the process behind something you're making.
Friends, family, pets, and quiet routines.
Days out, celebrations, adventures, and personal challenges.
Projects, studio sessions, rehearsals, and work in progress.
Private by design
No account required. Your clips stay on your iPhone and nothing is shared automatically. Keep the finished video for yourself, save it to Photos, or share it when you choose.
