Q. What is HighlightCam?

HighlightCam is a free mobile app that lets your phone record a continuous 15 second loop of whatever it's watching. So when a highlight happens you can simply hit Save to capture a 15 second video of whatever just happened. It's as if you knew whan a highlight was about to occur. Then save your highlight video to your camera roll or share it. You can attribute a highlight video to any NZ sports organisation or school to have it included on SportyNews after it has been vetted for content. Visit www.highlightcam.co.nz for more info.
