### 1/5 — Зачем?

*2022-01-23*

Ну и какой смысл делать это приложение бесплатным, если оно не даёт даже посмотреть функционал? Сразу же кидает на окно оплаты, закрыть его невозможно. Даже если бы хотела заплатить — не стала бы, потому что нельзя посмотреть само приложение, а покупать кота в мешке не собираюсь.

### 1/5 — Оплата сразу хоть и написано 3 дня бесплатно

*2021-09-18*

Хотел затестить функционал, сразу вылезло окно с оплатой, но предлагая 3 дня триала. Естественно сумма снялась сразу. Загружать видео нельзя, пользоваться не буду. Верните оплату!

### 1/5 — Not very good at all

*2021-08-31*

I literally got to press the red large ‘Record’ button on the right for 1 second before the app asked me to do purchase the unlimited extra features, which cost almost 3.99$ with only a three day cancellation period. That’s it. I wasn’t able to test it out or try the app once before deciding wether it would be worth purchasing the additional features, which in my opinion is just bad marketing. How are you going to convince your target audience to use and purchase additional features for your app if you don’t allow them to take it for a test drive and see if they enjoy using it first?

### 1/5 — Не даёт записать даже одно видео

*2021-08-02*

Зачем разрешать бесплатное скачивание, но при этом не давать воспользоваться хотя бы частью наполнения? Покупать кота в мешке никто не будет

### 1/5 — Not worth the download

*2021-07-01*

Can’t even test a video with the free version because the request to subscribe comes up and cannot be closed. Why would anyone pay $5 weekly for a camera app? That’s over $250/year. I wouldn’t have a problem with paying for the app when I purchase it, but that subscription price is insane, there is no value in it. Deleted immediately.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2021-06-07*

I can’t even try the app out without subscribing to a trial offer which I will have to opt out of in order to not get charged. Absolutely ridiculous. There are plenty of other apps that do the same thing and don’t try to pull this garbage. Don’t download this app.

### 1/5 — help

*2021-05-10*

i would be able to give a review if the app didn’t constantly pop up with the subscription prices every time i load it. i can’t even use the app because it doesn’t let me press an exit button from the subscription offer .

### 1/5 — $4.99 PER WEEK

*2021-04-01*

This app is $4.99 a WEEK and kinda crappy.

### 1/5 — I can’t use it

*2021-03-28*

Every time I open the app after a few seconds it comes up with its 3 day free trial thing and I can’t close the thing so I can’t use it please fix! Giveing it a 1 star because I don’t know what else to give it.

### 1/5 — -

*2021-03-11*

Скачала приложение, на секунду даёт посмотреть в окошко с фильтром -> далее покупка версии без возможности закрыть, поэтому сразу:
1 недовольность 
2 удаление приложения 
3 отзыв с одной звездой

### 1/5 — No Poop head

*2021-02-28, version 1.4*

You are such a stupid scam

### 1/5 — Обман

*2021-02-01*

За что мне сняли 329 р алло

### 1/5 — Невозможно воспользоваться бесплатной версией

*2020-12-25*

Бесплатной версии нет, сразу выкидывает окно оплаты и нет возможности его закрыть

### 1/5 — Не могу отметить подписку

*2020-12-15*

Случайно оформила подписку и теперь не могу ее отменить в настройках телефона, приложением не пользуюсь а деньги списываются, как быть?

### 1/5 — App is awful do not download

*2020-11-17*

First off I would like to say I often don’t feel the need to write reviews bu this app is pretty bad, it started off free when I first downloaded you could use the filter and the effects and I made quite a few videos with it. But after wile I deleted it and then I came back and redownloaded it after few months and now you can’t use ANY filters or effects unless you sell your soul! Once you hit the filter a few seconds later an ad pops up for their premium and all you have to do is spend 5 dollars a week! That a dollar a day not including Sunday and Saturday. Good thing to give my bank account a break for the weekends huh? Anyways it’s not a good ap and I think all the five star reviews are bots. I wouldn’t recommend the app to anybody because without the filters or effects it just doesn’t look like an 8mm camera, all they did was add some grainy effects and call it good. Anyways awful app.

**Developer response:** Hello! Your review is not entirely consistent - you hate our app, but say you made a lot of videos with it? There is no need to sell the soul in any case. We are planning to lower the subscription price - the price of $ 5 per week seems to us really quite high, so we will lower it. However, we initially chose this price based on our competitors. App development and advertising is expensive, and you probably know about it. Good luck anyway!

### 1/5 — по подписке

*2020-11-03*

Платное приложение, 329 рублей в !неделю!

### 1/5 — Scam

*2023-08-26*

Don’t waste your time. If you’re looking for a free app, you can’t even use any of the functions without the 4.99 popping up

### 1/5 — Don’t bother unless you want to spend £250 a year for an app you can get as an instagram filter

*2023-07-23*

Don’t bother unless you want to spend £250 a year for an app you can get as an instagram filter. You can’t even use the app until you sign up for a three day ‘free trial’. Waste of time

### 1/5 — бесполезный кусок непонятно чего

*2023-07-13*

я не вижу кнопку выйти из меню оплаты, где она??? каким надо быть тyпыm человеком что бы создавать такое приложение, с таким интерфейсом, без возможности выхода из меню оплаты? разберитесь!!!!!

### 1/5 — can’t test

*2023-07-13*

immediately deleted ..can’t even test

### 1/5 — so bad

*2023-06-22*

at least you could let us use some effects, but it's a paid program overall

### 1/5 — :(

*2023-06-10*

Ищу приложение для подобной обработки видео. Данное — ужасно прекрасно своей бесполезностью. Вам предоставляется лишь 1 секунда для того, чтобы вы посмотрели на экран и кнопки, после чего — будьте добры, оплатите. 
Сразу удаляю.

### 1/5 — No free use content here

*2023-03-26*

Fake. There is no free use content here unless you subscribe.

### 1/5 — No Trial

*2023-02-06*

I have no idea if I want to buy this app or not, I can’t see what any effects look like because 𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒚𝒕𝒊𝒎𝒆 I open the app or try to do anything, it redirects to the subscription page - with no other options. Guess I’ll go with “Vintage Film Camera: Retro Art”

### 1/5 — Ужас

*2023-01-19*

Пришлось выключить и включить смартфон, чтобы выйти из назойливого меню оплаты:-(((((

### 1/5 — Can’t use it without a weekly subscription.

*2022-05-20*

I had the same issue as the reviewer above. Can’t use it without the ad coming up asking me to upgrade to the premium, which is 4.99 weekly. That seems a little steep, which was stated also in the previous reviewers feedback. In the response it said they would lower the weekly fee and a year later it is still 4.99. I deleted the app. Will explore another 8mm app option.

### 5/5 — good!

*2020-08-31*

i wish you could upload a video instead of only being able to take them

### 5/5 — So far, so good!

*2020-08-16*

I’m using the freebie version, and the features are as advertised. Everything works as it should, and the videos are very accurate simulations of the Super 8 movies! I will definitely use these in future productions!

**Developer response:** Thank you very much for 5 stars and such a review. It seemed to me an incredible task to create a super 8 camera on a phone, and your review thrills me😺😺😺

### 5/5 — 5 звёзд

*2020-05-01*

Артём красавец!!! Приложение 🔥👍

### 4/5 — Really good

*2020-08-14*

The app itself is great, I really love it, but how do you get the footage to transfer to your photo library??

**Developer response:** Thank you King David! The application does not provide such an opportunity yet, but we plan to add this feature in the next sprint💪

### 4/5 — Окажите помощь

*2020-03-01*

Не идёт запись почему-то

**Developer response:** Привет! Спасибо за твой отзыв. Возможно, ты не разрешил доступ к камере или к фотографиям при первом запуске. По этой причине запись не может начаться или сохраниться, так как нет разрешения. Проверь, пожалуйста, в настройках iOS доступ. Для этого перейди в настройки на самом телефоне и выбери приложение 8mm+.

### 3/5 — Только платно?

*2020-11-03*

Не даёт записать- выкидывает на платную подписку?

### 3/5 — Не идёт запись(

*2020-03-27*

Исправьте пожалуйста

### 3/5 — Недостаток

*2020-03-21*

Вылетает программа при выборе тем

### 2/5 — Like others have said...

*2022-11-22*

£4.99 a week seems rather a lot. That would make the app costs just over £250 per year. To put that in perspective, I purchased an iPhone SE for for half that, so this is not something I would be able to justify. As I was unable to test the app because it demands I agree to a free 3 day trial followed by an aggressively priced subscription model, I can't comment on how the software performs. That's why I gave it 2 stars.

### 2/5 — Having problems

*2022-06-21*

I really want to use this app, but whenever I open it , the pop up for the paid subscription pops up and there’s no way to exit out. Feels like a scam
