Lift Recorder

Film your sets without pausing your music.

Lift Recorder is a free Android gym camera that keeps your music playing by default, and lets you tag each set with the exercise, weight, reps and RPE. Everything about it — how it keeps your playlist going, tagging, personal records and the FAQ — is on its own site.

Why it exists

On Android, most camera apps pause whatever you're listening to the moment they start recording. Lift Recorder was built so a set can be filmed without losing the playlist. The whole story is in the launch post, and the app's own site, liftrecorder.app, has the current details.
