Back That App Up holds a rolling window of recent audio in memory. Tap save and you keep what came before the moment, the moment itself, and what followed — in one clip.
The opening of an unexpected conversation. The idea you said out loud. The sound you couldn't explain. Ordinary recorders start after you tap — and leaving one running all day buries you in hours of files to sort and delete.
Older, unsaved audio expires as new audio arrives. Nothing is written to disk until a trigger fires. Saved clips live on a separate lifecycle — buffer cleanup never touches them.
Dashcam mode arms the buffer the moment the app opens. Pro's always-on standby re-arms whenever the app is open. Stealth mode removes the app's own cues — no sounds, notifications, vibration or flashing UI.
Saved moments are transcribed by a server-side Whisper pipeline. Search your Moments library by transcript text and tags.
We removed Google Drive backup on purpose. Storage is strictly local. Audio leaves the device only when it's sent for transcription — and that upload is stored privately, with no public URL.

The quick-backup link opens the app, arms it, and saves. Use it from an Android long-press shortcut or an iOS Shortcuts automation you set up once.
