  • Exactly what I was looking for

    I’m so excited I found this app. Exactly what I was looking for and I wasn’t sure it even existed. The features are simple to use and cover everything I need. I’m hoping an external mic works so if you have any tried and tested brand suggestions let me know what to buy! I think my parents will love this memento from their 50th anniversary party.

    I have tried it with a Shure MV88 mic with lightning connector, lightning headphones and 3.5 mm mics. Should work fine with most but testing is key. Good luck! Also, wired mic is recommended and Guided Access is important to not disrupt mic recognition.
  • Thank you

    Thank you for the great App. Is there a way to extend videos beyond 60 seconds? Or to remove the time limit altogether?

    Developer Response

    Sure, video limit can be set up to 3 minutes. In settings there is a control panel (tab on iPhone). The timeout is standard so that the app works well on its own and always returns to the idle screen. Could be an option in the future.
  • Good App

    Can’t ask for more from a free app. No issues works as it says it does. The only request I have from future updates is to be able to keep the border/overlay when the videos saves to the gallery

    Thanks, that’s a good idea!
  • External microphone

    I have this app and I had problems with the external microphone not recording audio, I was lucky that I noticed and unplugged the microphone to finish the event

    Developer Response

    Sorry to hear but good that you noticed. Due to the nature of ports not always recognizing input source types, I've added an alert so that users make sure to check audio with test recordings.
  • Do not get this app!!!

    The majority of the videos left by our wedding guests did not have any sounds which was super disappointing!!

    Developer Response

    Very sorry to hear this. The worst thing to hear is that my app fails a user on such an important event. Doesn't really help, but I've found the issue and a new version is published. / Jacob
  • Works 30% of the time

    Bought this app for our big wedding day. This app is really easy to setup and simple for guest to use. But I would not recommend this to any one because the first issue was the idle screen message. We were unable to customize the message we wanted to through the settings and the idle message only shows 1 word at a time for 5 sec which I feel is way to long. The issue can be resolved if we can customize the message, change the speed or have the option to show the entire message on the idle screen. Second issue, and this is the BIG ISSUE. Though recording the video had no issues, 30% of what was recorded had audio while the 70% had no audio. For these issues, I would not recommend this to anyone especially if you plan to use this for your wedding day.

    Sorry to hear about your issues. Unfortunately I haven’t found these problems despite lots of testing on different devices. Would be good to know if you had an external mic. Will provide updates if I find the problems you describe. Sincerely, Jacob
  • Good app, could be great

    This app is a nice option and though a bit lacking in features, what it does, it does well. The customization options are very limited, however the recent update to upload your own background is a great step in the right direction. It would also be very helpful to give the option to adjust the cut off time for recording, as a minute is often a bit short, and some older guests have trouble responding to the screen prompt in time. Additional font and color options seem like a simple and obvious win as well. Overall, a useful app and I hope the developer keeps improving this one!

    Thanks for your feedback! Changing the timeout will be added for the next release. More customization planned for eventual UI overhaul.
