The camera roll problem
You saved it. Then your camera roll buried it.
Screenshots, receipts, screen recordings, lectures, app ideas, error messages, prices, menus, links — all mixed into one endless camera roll.
- You remember a word, not the file.
- You remember someone said it, not which video.
- You remember the price, not the screenshot.
- You remember the error, not when it happened.
Impossible searches
Search the fragments you actually remember.

FAQ
Honest answers before you try it.
Can YEAR search words spoken in videos?
Yes. YEAR can transcribe selected videos using Apple’s Speech framework and make spoken words searchable.

Not in v1 unless that text appears in the screenshot or transcript.
