The Story

Born poolside.
Built with purpose.

RaceChase started at a swim meet — one parent holding a phone in one hand and a stopwatch in the other, doing neither well. That frustration became an idea, and that idea became a family project.

Our family built RaceChase together as a real-world lesson in entrepreneurship, software development, and the power of solving problems you actually have. Every purchase of RaceChase goes directly toward funding college education.

When you buy RaceChase, you're not just getting a great app — you're supporting a young developer's future. And you're getting the best race recording tool on the App Store.

Features

Everything you need.
Nothing you don't.

RaceChase was built for parents standing trackside — holding a phone in landscape, eyes on the race, not the screen.

⏱

Live Timer Overlay

A professional stopwatch composited directly into your video frames in real-time. Not a screen recording — real overlay at native resolution, with hundredths-of-a-second precision.

◉

One-Thumb Lap Button

Large, color-coded buttons positioned for thumb reach. Tap laps without looking at the screen. Every split is recorded and the overlay updates instantly.

🎬

Auto End Card

When you stop recording, a premium summary card is automatically generated — total time, average lap, every split, on a frosted-glass background of your last frame.

🎨

Five Premium Themes

Flame, Deep Navy, Bloom, Light, and Red Hot. Each theme applies a color tint over a blurred capture of the race, giving every end card a broadcast-quality look.

📱

Instant Save & Share

Videos save directly to your Photos library — in a dedicated RaceChase album if you want. Share to family, post to social, or just keep it as a keepsake. No export step.

⚙

Fully Customizable

Left or right-handed layout. Timer overlay position. Font sizes. End card duration. Add athlete name, event, meet, and lane — all baked into the end card.

How It Works

Four taps. One keepsake.

RaceChase is designed so your attention stays on the race — not the app.

01

Point & Record

Open the app, frame the race in landscape, and tap the red record button. Video starts capturing immediately.

02

Start the Clock

When the starting gun fires, tap the green stopwatch button. The live timer overlay appears on the video.

03

Tap Laps

Hit the blue lap button at each split. The overlay updates, confirms with a flash, and your current lap resets.

04

Stop & Save

Tap stop. A 3-second buffer captures the finish, the end card is generated, and the video saves to Photos.

End Card Themes

Five ways to finish.

Each theme tints a blurred capture of your last frame. The blur provides texture, the tint provides mood.
