TakenAt

How to prove
when a video was recorded

For test and challenge videos where viewers ask “Did you really film this that day?”
Just show the screen, and viewers can check for themselves.

  1. 1At the start of recording, show the TakenAt screen to the camera.
  2. 2In the description or comments, write “Recording time can be verified with TakenAt.”
  3. 3Viewers pause the video and scan the QR or enter the code to check.

Isn't the phone's timestamp enough?

Anyone can change a photo's date and time in their photo app.
The TakenAt code can't be known until that moment, so it can't be created afterwards.

Does it work for short TikTok or Instagram videos?

Yes.
Show it for 1–2 seconds, and viewers can pause to read the code or QR.

What does it prove, and what not?

A visible code proves the footage was recorded after that time.
It can't detect compositing or overlays added later. It's free, with no sign-up.
