ReplayCap

ReplayCap is a menu bar instant-replay clipper that saves moments after they happen.

It continuously buffers the last 15 seconds to 5 minutes of your screen and audio. When something worth keeping happens, press a hotkey and ReplayCap saves it as an MP4. If you have used instant replay on a gaming PC, you will feel right at home.

FEATURES
• Instant replay and sessions: Save the last 15 to 300 seconds on demand, or record full sessions until you stop.
• Extended replay: Roll 5, 10, or 30-minute replay windows to disk for longer capture history.
• Automatic game capture: Start recording automatically when a game launches and stop when you quit.
• Dual-display and priority handling: Capture two monitors side by side or as separate files, or rank preferred screens for automatic fallback across wake and docking changes.
• Hardware-accelerated encoding and HDR: Record smooth HEVC or H.264 video up to 60 fps, with optional 10-bit HDR capture on Apple silicon and full Retina pixel resolution.
• Flexible audio: Record system audio, microphone input, or a single selected app, merged into one track or saved as separate tracks inside the MP4.
• Built-in clip library and editor: Preview, trim, crop (with 16:9, 1:1, 4:3, and 9:16 presets), resize to 1080p or 720p with a live file-size estimate, or export as GIF.
• Custom workflow: Configure global hotkeys, capture profiles, quality presets, and file-name templates.

STAYS OUT OF YOUR WAY

• ReplayCap lives in your menu bar and writes standard MP4 files straight to disk. A live badge shows recording state and buffered duration so you always know when it is ready.
• Set ReplayCap to launch at login and start buffering automatically, and it stays quietly in the background until you hit save.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

• ReplayCap runs entirely offline on your Mac. Every recording saves directly to a local folder you choose as a standard MP4 file that belongs to you.

GREAT FOR
• Gamers: Save the boss fight, goal, or clutch win right after it happens.
• Bug hunting: Capture intermittent bugs the first time they happen.
• Streamers and creators: Pull highlights straight into short clips ready to share.
• Anyone who has ever said, "I wish I had been recording that."

Screen Recording permission is required.
