How ClipPin works

An iPhone and iPad app for filming youth sports.

If you got here from a follow link, the clips you were watching were filmed by someone on that team with ClipPin. This is what they used.

Film the game

A parent films from the sideline on an iPhone. No rig, no second camera, no editing software. The app runs on the phone they were already holding.

Tap once when something happens

There is one row of buttons over the camera view — a goal, a save, a good run — and a tap marks the play as it happens. Marking takes a thumb, so the filmer keeps watching the game. The score can be kept from the same screen.

The clips are cut when the game ends

Each mark becomes its own clip, trimmed around the play, ready when the final whistle goes. Nothing has to be scrubbed through afterwards. Clips can be saved to the phone, shared, or posted.

Following is free

Everyone the filmer shares a link with can watch the score and the clips in a browser. No app, no account, nothing to install — the link is all it takes, and it works for the next game too. Following will always be free.

Filming needs the app

ClipPin is on the App Store for iPhone and iPad. Following a team does not need it.
