SEMO - Save Every MOments

A year from now, will you remember the look on your face today?

Photos pile up by the thousand, yet they never quite capture time passing. How fast a child grows. The window changing with the season. A face that is a little different today than it was yesterday. Those things only become visible once the moments are joined together.

SEMO is a video diary that stacks one scene a day and turns it into a single film. Fifteen seconds a day is enough.


■ One shot a day is all it takes

1. Capture today. A single photo works, or a clip of up to 15 seconds.
2. The app files it away in date order for you.
3. When you are ready, one button turns it all into one video.

There are no cuts to trim, no timeline to line up. Fifteen seconds a day becomes seven minutes in a month, and ninety minutes in a year.


■ The app does the editing

Video editors are powerful, and demanding. SEMO went the other way. It joins your saved scenes in order, lays music underneath, adds the date and a single line of text, and exports the result as an MP4. The finished video lands in your gallery, ready to share.

Anything you do want to shape by hand is still yours to shape. Trim a section, write a caption, rotate the frame, adjust the volume, change the playback speed — as much or as little as you like.


■ Your record stays on your phone

There is no sign-up. No login, no server upload. Every video, photo, and line of text you record stays on your device. This is an app for faces of children and the ordinary days of a family, so it was built that way from the start.

When you change phones, or simply want to be careful, you can create a backup file and move it yourself. Backups can be password-protected, and the app can quietly make one for you once a day.


■ What people record with it

· Watching a child grow — one shot a day toward a 100-day, first-birthday, or full-year growth video. You can see the growing happen, and see what one year ago today looked like on the day itself.
· A daily vlog — a vlog with no editing. Today, kept in fifteen seconds.
· Habits and self-tracking — workouts, study, meals, anything you repeat. Your streak and a year-at-a-glance calendar are right there.
· Trips and countdowns — stack scenes in order instead of by date, and set a D-Day so the remaining days appear on the video.
