I got it to create clips for VJ ing and music video creation. BUT…. as it only appears to record in portrait it is pretty useless for using in landscape format video. Please please fix this!!!! ### 5/5 — Very cool application of AR *2021-08-07* Still getting the hang of this app but the visualizations are really awesome. ### 5/5 — Well done! *2021-05-19* It’s nice to find a well-designed, free app that just works as advertised. ### 5/5 — So much fun *2021-05-15, version 1.6.0* Oh man thank you for this, I’m having so much fun with it! Just beatboxing and distorting everything around haha really amazing app, well done! ### 5/5 — Nice AR app! Maybe 4.5 now (video recording can make it a 5 though) *2021-05-11* I rarely do a full score app rating, so congratulations! Thanks for posting such an interesting free app. Wow...an actually interesting use of AR that shows that technology’s potential. Inspired to make an AR app now. Hopefully apple will actually launch the HMD that apple has registered so many patents for...launching SOON hopefully...ahem...tim... By the way, preparing to launch a “WOAH!!!” level music and visuals app soon (generally finished it weeks ago, but been moving). I want to add video cap to that app also and don’t feel like making that from scratch, so if find a nice library or AVFoundation way to do that easily, thanks in advance for posting that in a reply to this review. If I find it first, I can edit the review to add that recommendation. Should definitely add video recording to this app ASAP. ## Frequently asked questions about Beatsy ### What can I do with Beatsy?
