About TimeScroll
TimeScroll records your screen over time, makes the recordings searchable, and lets you scroll back through earlier moments to find something you saw. The project says everything is stored only on your Mac. It is aimed at people who want to recover something they glimpsed on screen without remembering where it was.
It requires macOS 14 or later to run, and Xcode to build from source. The repository is kept in step with each app release. The upstream materials do not say whether the release zip is notarized, so check how it opens on first launch.
