The present disclosure allows for unique collection and housing of captured media, and further provides for a unique method of access for stored captured media. In some implementations, the system may use a device's native components, such as a microphone or camera, without using the native operating system. In some embodiments, captured media may be temporarily stored in a local cache until the device connects to a communication network, which may initiate transfer of the captured media to an external server. In some implementations, captured media may be accessible through a unique access mechanism, which may allow for immediate viewing of the captured media without requiring a separate download of the file.
