FadCam

FadCam is a video recording app for Android that allows you to record videos in the background, even with the screen off. It's completely free, ad-free and open source, so it's even better than using the recording feature that is built into most Android handsets by default.

Record in the background without cuts

With FadCam, you can start a recording and continue using your device normally or even turn off the screen. The app continues recording in the background, which is useful for situations where you need discretion or simply want to save battery life while recording. In addition, you can control the recording via shortcuts, making it easy to start or stop recording without opening the app.

Customize the quality and format of your videos

FadCam offers you options to adjust the quality of your recordings according to your needs. You can select between different resolutions such as SD, HD or Full HD, and choose the frame rate per second. In addition, you can add custom watermarks with information such as time, location or a logo. From the widget that you can create on your home screen you can also monitor parameters such as recording time.

Manage and playback your recordings easily

Every recording you make on FadCam is accessible from the app, and you can rename them, sort them by date or size, and delete them directly from the interface. It also includes an integrated ExoPlayer-based player, so you can watch your recordings without leaving the app. In addition, you can view detailed information about each video, such as duration and file size.

Download the APK from FadCam if you are looking for a secure background Android video recording app. Since it is open source, you can review its code to check that it is not doing suspicious things inside your terminal.
