ohioa4@gmail.comCreatorRoll is an on-device utility designed for content creators who record multi-take video on iPhone. It automatically groups shoot takes together, suggests a keeper take, detects abandoned false starts for quick cleanup, and lets you protect shoots against accidental deletion. There is no account, no cloud upload, and no data tracking.
CreatorRoll uses local recording timestamps and video duration metadata directly from your Apple Photos library to identify related takes from the same shooting session. It presents the takes in an organized shoot group and suggests a keeper take to help you pick your final footage quickly.
False starts are brief, aborted clips recorded when you stop and restart a take early. CreatorRoll highlights these short takes so you can review and delete them in bulk, reclaiming device storage immediately without manually sorting through every clip.
You can mark any shoot or video clip as protected. Protected items are locked and excluded from batch deletion suggestions, ensuring you do not accidentally remove important footage during quick cleanup sessions.
No. CreatorRoll requests deletions through iOS and the Apple Photos library, and each deletion requires system confirmation. Deleted clips are sent to the standard Recently Deleted album in Apple Photos, where you can recover them for up to 30 days. See Apple's guide to deleting and recovering photos and videos on iPhone.
Never. CreatorRoll operates entirely on-device with zero network access for media processing. Your videos, outtakes, and metadata never leave your iPhone. See our Privacy Policy.
