SilentCam

Please update. Says developer needs to update on iOS. Was a Great idea. And is true enjoyed. I like the screen with the little camera. Barely noticeable and you can see what you’re shooting. Great cause the little one will always stop what she doing to pose if she thinks she is being filmed. Great job keep up the good work.

Bad App

This app is horrible. Does not allow access to your media. No developer response.

Scam

App doesn’t work and the developer site doesn’t go anywhere. Scam.

Does not work

Not settings anywhere. Just an error message “user had denied access to media”. Waste of money.

Doesn’t work

Doesn’t work, do not buy.

Awful

Wouldn’t allow camera access, tried everything and couldn’t get it work .

Waste

Does not work

Not saving the recordings

Constantly getting the “user denied access” popup, went to privacy settings and there’s no way to enable access

Abandonware.

I've used this app for 2-3 years, despite numerous issues:

For example, it seems the app was never updated to properly take advantage of newer iPhone cameras. So the images are formatted improperly. They are also frequently blurry (which did not happen with Sneaky Pix, another app that's since disappeared).

Also, merely launching the app inexplicably causes the iPhone's audio to be turned down to nearly zero. So, if I'm listening to music or to a podcast, launching this app cancels that audio—for no reason whatsoever.

I wrote the developer about this, over a year ago, but never got a reply. And now, the support link in the App Store leads to a defunct web page.

Finally, I just upgraded to an iPhone Xs Max, and Silent Cam is saying it "doesn't have permission" to access my photos. But there's no way to *grant* it permission!

The app needs an update! But the developer is MIA. This is so infuriating.

Doesn’t silence the noise

iPhone 5s - doesn’t do what it’s bought for! Still shutter noise!!
