Is Lappaa a timeline-free video editor?

Yes. Lappaa is a one-take audio and video tool. It removes the need for multi-clip timeline editing by applying saved visual templates, auto-captions, and auto-trimming directly to a single continuous recording.

Does Lappaa process captions offline?

Yes. Lappaa generates accurate burned-in captions fully on-device using Apple's Neural Engine. No media is uploaded to a cloud server.

Can I send visual voice messages on WhatsApp with Lappaa?

Yes. Lappaa exports standard .mp4 files with burned-in captions and visualisers. These play natively in WhatsApp, Telegram, and iMessage, providing a visual format that can be watched on mute.

Does Lappaa support social media audio mastering?

Yes. Lappaa features a professional LUFS normalization engine. You can master your content to specific social media targets (like -14 LUFS for TikTok and Reels) safely, utilizing a -2 dBTP True Peak limiter to prevent digital clipping.

Your voice, made visible. The one-take audio and video tool

Turn any voice or video recording into a platform-ready, captioned video in under a minute. Runs entirely on your device.

Fully on-device. No cloud uploads. No account required.

A workflow without the timeline

Multi-clip editors require a timeline, syncing, rendering, and per-session configuration. Lappaa skips the timeline entirely.

Record or import your media, apply a saved visual template, review the auto-generated captions, and share. This workflow is built for professionals, consultants, and creators who have something to say and want to share it without becoming full-time editors.

A message that presents itself

A visual message arrives as a video — captions visible on screen, the visualiser already moving with the rhythm of your voice. The content is readable from the first frame, allowing the recipient to see the context before turning the sound on.

Captions are burned directly into the video, so they play natively in WhatsApp, Signal, Telegram, and iMessage. There is no toggle to find, no separate subtitle file to attach, and no special app required on the receiving end. The format fits — efficient to produce, personal to receive.

Runs on your device

Lappaa's transcription and rendering happen inside your iPhone or iPad. Recording, captioning, and export are all done locally.

Your media stays on your device. No cloud processing, no account, and no servers. Accurate captions, generated offline.

Social platform audio mastering

Social platforms each normalize playback to their own loudness targets. If an audio export is not mastered correctly, it can sound thin or quiet compared to the rest of the feed.

Lappaa Pro normalizes your audio to the right target: −14 LUFS for TikTok, Reels, and YouTube Shorts — with a True Peak limiter at −2 dBTP. Your export sounds full and clear on any platform.
