Mac, iPhone & iPadmacOS 14+ & iOS/iPadOS 17+Local-first processingNo account required

One recording, useful outputs

From raw capture to ready to share.

Native Apple frameworks handle recording, interaction awareness, transcription, privacy analysis, and export directly on your Mac, iPhone, or iPad.

Native screen recording

Capture your Mac display with ScreenCaptureKit or record iPhone and iPad workflows with ReplayKit, with optional microphone narration.

Cinematic focus

Click-aware focus movements and highlights make important interactions easier to follow.

Flexible video formats

Export landscape 16:9, full-screen vertical 9:16, or square 1:1 videos for different destinations.

Privacy Shield

Vision OCR finds supported sensitive-text patterns and masks matching regions in your exported video.

On-device transcription

When supported for your language, narration is transcribed locally to improve reports and instructions.

Editable visual guides

Review detected steps, refine their wording, and export guides with high-resolution screenshots.

Local guide intelligence

On eligible devices, Apple Intelligence can privately refine guide wording. A deterministic on-device fallback keeps guide creation available elsewhere.

Complete support package

Bundle a privacy-masked video, redacted report, HTML guide, PDF manual, protected screenshots, and metadata into one local ZIP.

Review the generated steps

VividCapture identifies interactions and creates a semantic guide you can reorder, edit, or regenerate.

Export what you need

Create a video, bug report, interactive walkthrough, or training manual from the same project.

Quick answers

What does VividCapture require?

VividCapture requires macOS 14 Sonoma or later on Mac, or iOS/iPadOS 17 or later on iPhone and iPad. Mac recording needs Screen Recording permission. Microphone and Speech Recognition permissions are optional on all platforms; Accessibility is optional and Mac-only.

Why is screen capture unavailable?
  1. Open System Settings → Privacy & Security → Screen Recording.
  2. Enable VividCapture.
  3. Quit and reopen VividCapture if macOS asks you to do so.
  4. Start a short test recording.
How do I record another app on iPhone or iPad?
  1. Open the Record tab in VividCapture.
  2. Under “Record another app,” tap the broadcast control.
  3. Select Vivid Broadcast and start the broadcast.
  4. Switch to the app or workflow you want to demonstrate.
  5. Stop from the red iOS recording indicator, return to VividCapture, and tap Import completed broadcast.
Why has my recording not appeared in Projects?

After you stop recording, allow a few seconds for the video to finalize. VividCapture saves the project first and then enriches its transcript and guide in the background. Keep the app open during this stage. If it still does not appear, send the approximate recording time and any displayed error to support.

Can I stop from the macOS sharing indicator?

Yes. VividCapture listens for an external stop and finalizes the project. You can also use “Stop & create assets” inside the app.

Is recording time unlimited?

VividCapture does not impose a fixed recording-duration limit. Actual duration depends on available disk space, system resources, display resolution, frame rate, and microphone use. For important long recordings, verify free storage and make a short test first.

Why is there no transcript?

Check Microphone and Speech Recognition permissions and confirm that microphone recording was enabled. VividCapture requires Apple’s on-device speech recognition; when the selected language or system does not support it, the recording still succeeds without a transcript.

What does Accessibility permission do?

It lets VividCapture read the name and role of the control you click so generated instructions can be more specific. VividCapture does not use this permission to read values you type. You can deny it and continue using visual detection as a fallback.

Does Privacy Shield guarantee that everything sensitive is hidden?

No automated detector can guarantee perfect results. Privacy Shield detects supported text patterns in sampled frames and masks matching areas in the export. Always review an exported video, report, HTML guide, or PDF before sharing it. The original recording remains unchanged.

How should I report a problem?

Email support@online247now.com with the app version, device model, macOS or iOS/iPadOS version, steps to reproduce, expected result, actual result, and the complete error message. Remove private information from screenshots and attachments.

Privacy Policy

Your capture belongs to you.

Effective date: August 6, 2026  ·  Applies to: VividCapture for macOS, iOS, and iPadOS

The current version is local-first: it has no VividCapture account, advertising, behavioral tracking, analytics SDK, or VividCapture-operated cloud upload.

1. Overview

This Privacy Policy explains how VividCapture handles information when you record, process, edit, and export content. In this policy, “we,” “us,” and “VividCapture” refer to the provider of the VividCapture application, bundle identifier com.sukheshcs.VividCapture.

VividCapture is designed to process projects on your device. We do not operate a service that receives or stores your recordings, narration, transcripts, screenshots, guides, or reports in the current release.

2. Data processed on your device

Depending on the features you choose, VividCapture may process:

  • Screen content: video frames from the display or application content you choose to record.
  • Audio: microphone narration when microphone recording is enabled.
  • Interaction metadata: click timing and position and, when optional Accessibility access is granted, the clicked control’s name, role, and application context.
  • Transcripts: text generated from narration when on-device recognition is available.
  • Detected sensitive regions: local Vision OCR results used to identify supported sensitive-text patterns for masking.
  • Project content: titles, selected capture purpose, edited guide steps, brand-kit settings, generated screenshots, and export preferences.
  • Technical details: app version, operating-system version, device name, recording duration, and other details included in a bug report you generate.

“Processed” does not mean this information is sent to us. In the current version, these operations occur within the application on your device.

If you contact support, we may receive the email address, name, message, diagnostic details, and attachments you choose to provide. Support communications are separate from the app’s local processing. Do not send an unredacted recording or screenshot containing information you do not want us to receive.

3. How data is used

VividCapture uses local project information only to provide the features you request, including recording, cinematic reframing, click highlighting, privacy masking, transcription, semantic step generation, editing, project management, and MP4, Markdown, HTML, or PDF export.

On eligible devices, VividCapture may use Apple’s on-device Foundation Models to refine the wording of generated guide steps. This feature is optional, operates locally, and has a deterministic local fallback when Apple Intelligence is unavailable.

VividCapture does not use your content for advertising, user profiling, cross-app tracking, or training an external artificial-intelligence model.

4. Storage, transmission, and sharing

On macOS, project data, recordings, settings, and generated working files are stored in VividCapture’s sandboxed Application Support container. On iOS, data is stored inside the app’s local container and shared app-group container where needed to import ReplayKit broadcasts.

VividCapture does not upload project content to a VividCapture server. Speech transcription is configured to require Apple’s on-device recognizer; if the device or language does not support it, VividCapture continues without producing a transcript.

Content leaves the app only when you choose to export, save, copy, email, upload, or otherwise share it using a destination or service you select. The privacy practices of that destination are governed by its own provider.

Support emails are transmitted to and stored by our email service provider. We use them to answer requests, investigate problems, maintain service quality, and meet applicable legal obligations. We do not sell support-contact information or use it for behavioral advertising.

5. Device permissions

  • Screen Recording and ReplayKit: Screen Recording permission is required on macOS. On iPhone and iPad, ReplayKit records only after you initiate a capture or broadcast using Apple’s system controls.
  • Microphone: optional; used to include narration in a recording.
  • Speech Recognition: optional; used to request on-device transcription for reports and guides.
  • Accessibility: optional on macOS; used to identify the name and role of clicked controls. VividCapture does not use it to read typed field values.
  • User-selected files and folders: used when you choose a location for an export or open a generated asset.

You can review or revoke permissions in System Settings on macOS or Settings on iOS. Revoking a permission may disable its related feature but does not prevent use of unrelated features.

6. Retention and deletion

Local project information remains on your device until you remove it or the relevant application data. Exported copies remain wherever you chose to save or share them. Removing an entry from VividCapture does not remove copies previously exported to other folders or services.

Because we do not automatically receive or store your project content, we normally have no server-side recording or transcript to delete. Support communications are retained only for as long as reasonably necessary to respond, maintain support records, resolve disputes, and comply with legal obligations.

For help locating and removing VividCapture data or requesting deletion of eligible support communications, contact support@online247now.com.

7. Security and responsible sharing

VividCapture uses Apple’s application sandbox and local system frameworks to limit access. However, no software or automated masking system can guarantee complete security. Review all exports before sharing, protect access to your Mac or iPhone, keep backups where appropriate, and avoid recording information you do not have permission to capture.

8. Your choices and rights

You control whether to start a recording, enable optional permissions, apply suggested masks, retain a project, generate an export, or share a file. You can revoke permissions in System Settings on macOS or Settings on iPhone and iPad.

Depending on where you live, you may have rights concerning personal information contained in support communications, including access, correction, deletion, restriction, or objection. To make a request, email support@online247now.com. We may need to verify the request before completing it.

9. Children’s privacy

VividCapture is a productivity tool and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect children’s personal information through a VividCapture-operated online service. A parent or guardian with a concern may contact us using the address below.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy when VividCapture’s features or legal obligations change. The revised policy will show a new effective date on this page. Material changes will be communicated through the app, its App Store listing, or this website when appropriate.
