VideoBro is an iPhone app for creating, collaborating on, editing, storing, sharing and watching home movies.

Someone starts a tape and invites friends or family. Everyone films on their own phone, and every clip lands on the tape in the order it was shot, as if the group were passing one camcorder around. When the tape is done, VideoBro turns it into a single film in the cloud and adds it to the Tape Cabinet of everyone on the tape.

People film more than ever, but most of it ends up as short, disconnected clips spread across camera rolls, cloud storage and old hard drives. Collecting everyone's videos after a trip takes effort, and often it never happens. VideoBro brings back the longer, continuous shape of a camcorder tape, made for the people in it rather than for strangers.

The founders

VideoBro is made by brothers Doug and Drew. Doug directs TV animation and came up with the idea and the first drawings. Drew is a sound design manager in the video game industry. They design and build VideoBro together. More about them.

Brilliant!

Love this app! Gave our crew a fun way to capture an adventure. Really challenged my 90’s dad with a camcorder vibes

5 out of 5 stars. Kandyplease,

Peak Nostalgia / Making Memories

I’m obsessed with this app. It’s so intuitive and fun. … The collaboration function is clutch. Being able to have multiple friends contribute to one shared memory is so special. Highly recommend!!

VHS nostalgia in an app

Remember making those cool VHS tapes then accidentally overwriting them halfway through your kid’s first steps?

Or that awkward junior prom video your mom won’t stop playing?

This is that. But in an app. And it’s awesome.

5 out of 5 stars. Bryan Barash,
