  • Not Descreet

    Even after pro purchase shows pop up "needs photos access permission" every launch and swipe (between gallery and camera) every time. Very dysfunctional. And desceet photos stored in the regular photos app makes them visible to other apps. The decreet gallery is adequate and seperate, and uploads to the files folder app. There is no need for photos app access. Please loose the message or issue a refund ty.

    I’m sorry that you’re frustrated by a behavior that we consider normal for a photo app. The permission to access the gallery is necessary because not all users want to use the private gallery, while the permissions for the camera and microphone don’t really need an explanation. If you don’t grant these permissions when launching the app, it’s obvious that they will be requested again every time you try to use the app. It’s true, we could request access to the gallery only from those who disable the private gallery, but many users deactivate it as needed. For example, those with little storage space on their phone might disable it to record 4K videos that take up a lot of space, and the iPhone camera roll, being connected to iCloud, doesn’t cause issues in these cases. In any case, if you would like a refund, you can request it through the App Store; we do not handle payments and refunds ourselves.
  • Volume buttons

    I’ve been using the app for awhile and think this app is great with amazing but needs two thing. the double touch to stop and knowing when you’re recording or not and it all being customizable is cool. Although I would like the “press this to record” sign to be little more discreet it’s a great function. I also think being able to record videos or with the volume button would be amazing, I find myself being able to use a lot and would definitely use the app even more! I have a iPhone 12 and I know the .5 zoom isn’t available which I wish it was but I have no idea if this is the same situation

  • Fails at taking multiple photos.

    Even if I rapidly tap-burst on my iPhone, it still struggles to take pictures equivalent to the amount of times I tap the black screen.

    I could tap 4 times and feel the distinct vibration effect, but when I look into the gallery I only see like 1 or 2 photos and they’re all so blurry.

    Please fix this in the future so that photos are more clear.

    Overall, this is a great discreet camera app and I still highly recommend it even with its faults.

  • Please fix video lag

    I’ve been using this app for a long time now, but only recently after the new update, the video seems to be very very blurry and a bit laggy on 1x zoom as well as the rest except 0.5x. Everything was fine before the update, not sure if I’ll continue using this app ) : Please fix this problem.
  • .5 Zoom out for Newer phones

    The app is great! is there any chance we could receive an update for the newer iPhones that includes an option to select .5 zoom out option for cameras?

    Developer Response

    .5 zoom support is now available, please update to the new version
  • Great App but?

    This is an awesome app and it works flawlessly in the pro version. I have it 4 stars. To make this a 5 star app woul to make a motion detector record option. This would truly blow all other black screen camera recorder apps out of the water.
  • Wish there was a way to tell if it's recording

    I've tried several times and there are times I find out that it's not even recording. Test it out and it works. When it comes to the real event, it does not work. Maybe an Apple Watch companion that shows whether the recording feature is on...

    “Video Helper” feature is what you need, can be enabled in settings
  • GOOD AT FIRST

    At first it was really good the video recording worked and the pictures now the only thing that works is the pictures. But when I record videos it shows them in the gallery but when I open them it won’t load.
  • Stabilization

    Sorry to have to write a review because it’s not possible to write to support. I have the latest version of OS and it’s impossible to get the « stabilizator » to stay on. Tried everything and re-installing but the video will never stabilize. Thanks for this great app. I upgraded to Pro.

    Developer Response

    Thanks for your feedback, we are aware of this bug, it will be fixed in next release that will be available in one month
  • Great app but needs some small improvements

    This app is discreet just as it says. Can record video with a black screen up. Video quality is good and it saves to a private gallery. Getting in an out of recording is easy. For some reason the video stabilization feature will not stay turned on though when I turn it on in settings.
