What Lappaa is

Lappaa is a freemium iOS and macOS app that turns audio or video recordings into captioned, platform-ready videos through a one-take workflow. It records audio and video, including 32-bit float capture, generates editable captions on-device, and burns them into exported videos. Saved visual templates can apply automatically to new recordings. Caption styling, brand presets, and more than 20 animated audio-reactive visualiser styles are included. Exports are standard MP4 files in 9:16, 1:1, and 16:9 formats, while subtitle export is SRT only. Recording, transcription, rendering, and export happen locally, with no cloud uploads or account required; these functions work offline after installation. Live voice isolation runs during microphone capture on iPhone 12 or later, but not on imported files. Transcript-based AI backgrounds require iPhone 15 Pro or later or an M1 iPad or later. Pro options add media import, watermark-free exports, custom LUFS targets, and word-by-word captions. The app has no multi-clip timeline and supports recordings up to 1,800 seconds.
