Help with recording, timers and your exported video.

Email Round support. Include your device model, iOS or iPadOS version, Round version/build and the steps that led to the problem. Please start with a written description rather than sending footage.

Record a short first session

Create a HIIT session with two rounds, 10 seconds work, 5 seconds rest and a 3-second countdown. Set up recording, enable the camera and start. Finish, add the timer, then check playback and save to Photos or share to Files.

What do the formats mean?

HIIT alternates work and rest. EMOM starts a round every chosen interval, which can be longer than one minute. Tabata uses 20 seconds work and 10 seconds rest. AMRAP counts down to a cap; For Time counts up. In the last two formats, tap Mark round after each complete round.

Where is my saved video?

After export, Save to Photos creates a copy in your photo library and Round confirms it beside the button. Allow add-only Photos permission if asked. Sharing to Files is another way to keep a copy. Original captures and exports also remain in Round until deleted.

Does it work offline?

Recording, timer rendering, local playback and bundled spoken prompts work on-device without an internet connection. The app or service you choose in the share sheet may require internet access.

Why did the camera or export stop?

Keep Round in the foreground while recording and exporting. Calls, locking the phone, another app using the camera, low storage or critical heat can interrupt the session. Round keeps readable captured footage and metadata so you can review or retry export. A hard process kill can leave an unreadable camera fragment; recovery of every recording is not guaranteed.

Audio cues

Choose spoken coach prompts or beeps in the session editor. Speaker cues while filming are optional. With workout audio on, the microphone captures audible speaker cues and export keeps that track without adding a second copy. Use the device speaker at an audible volume. With speaker cues or workout audio off, export adds the cue track locally. If a video made with an earlier version has doubled cues, choose Re-export from original in its recording details, then save or share the new copy.

Video format and storage

Round records portrait 720p H.264 and exports an MP4. A long workout needs space for both the original and the finished video. The app checks available storage before starting. Save important videos outside Round before removing the app.

Purchases and privacy

Round's launch model is a one-time App Store purchase, with all local features included. There is no subscription or per-export charge. Apple handles purchase receipts and refund requests. Read the privacy policy for data handling and deletion.

Competition footage

Check your event's current filming and editing rules before using any exported video. Round does not certify eligibility for competition submissions.
