Kind regards. ### 4/5 — Saving audio files *2015-10-27* great app but when saving audio files, it tries to saves them to camera roll & says "please wait" & I wait a long time over an you & nothing happens, can't even save a small wave audio file & is it possible to save a wave audio file to camera roll? I thought that was for pics and video only. also when I try to send the audio file via email it says sorry the file is over 100mb, connect to wifi, I'm already connected to wifi, it only gives me the option to cancel the action, no option to select a wifi. also why does it create the audio files in wave format? it's taking too much space from my iPhone, why not mp3? **Developer response:** Hi, this should be already fixed. ### 2/5 — More conspicuous and missing features *2015-07-01, version 5.0.1* The new icon and app name make the app look much more conspicuous. Also, I can't find any setting that allows me to change the background. Lastly, I can't zoom in on photos I've taken. ### 4/5 — Good app with loads of useful options *2014-01-14* Easy calc pro might not be the most innovative secret camera app, but it gets the job done, with loads of different configuration options. One suggestion: if we can use iphone volume button as shutter release that would be great. ### 1/5 — Were's the alarm clock? *2013-10-17, version 4.1.1* I bought his app. Than I had to buy more to get the features you promised. Now there is no clock to hide. What a rip off. ### 2/5 — Wooow *2013-07-07, version 4.0.2* Ok the motion detector is crap and does not work whatsoever, the whole reason I got the app was so I could set it in my room when I am gone to see who goes in there without having to watch hours of video! Do not pay for motion detector... ### 1/5 — Motion Detection Issue *2013-07-05, version 4.0.2* Motion detection feature no longer works... the app wants to charge me again to use this feature. Tried reinstalling the app, still no luck. ### 3/5 — Needs improvements *2013-06-24* The Good: easy to use, straight forward and not very complicated. Love the black screen recording mode - nothing shows at all and without sounds, definitely one of the strongest features of this app. I also love the motion detector feature! The Not So Good: unlike the screen captures showed when you download in the App Store, when you open up the app it does not give you a fake calculator, all I get is a screen to enter my four digit pin - destroys the whole discreet aspect. The second major issue is the app will not record in horizontal or 16:9 mode. Regardless if the phone is upright or on it's side it will only record in the vertical mode. This is a bit bizarre since the app will alter its appearance in the main menu depending on how it is held. With these bug fixes I would give it a five star rating. ### 1/5 — Nice idea - inconsistent *2013-06-14* This app, although a great idea, doesn't work properly for me - after paying for it. The video record feature sometimes records and sometimes doesn't even though the little red indicator shows recording. Sometimes i only get 30 seconds of video of what I recorded, sometimes it's the full recording, and sometimes (most often) it indicates recording but after stopping, there is nothing in the video library. Haven't tried the audio or picture options yet. Haven't heard back from tech support either on this topic. ### 4/5 — Good *2013-04-17, version 4.0.1* Great app till u updated it. It now longer records video. When will this problem be fixed. ### 1/5 — Vidoe recording not working *2013-04-12, version 4.0.1* Hi. When i got this app it worked well, now it does not work at all when i try recording vidoe, only takes pics. Iv paid alot for this and its not even working, for the price i think motion detection should have been included. What A BIG RIP OFF. I want my money back please. ### 1/5 — Was great, update total garbage *2013-04-10, version 4.0.1* The program was perfect. Then the told me there was an update. Now the program crashes and freezes my Iphone 5. Tap all you want, doesn't record. Stuck with a black screen that forces you to reboot iPhone. Good job, guys. Way to ruin things. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money on this app *2020-05-30, version 6.2.5* Please don’t waste your money on this app, is not worth it. ### 1/5 — Worked good at first, they quit on us *2017-12-25, version 5.1.1* No recent updates and i can't save files to my camera roll. Save your money and get a diff app ### 1/5 — Update broke export *2016-12-07, version 5.1.1* This used to be a good video taking app as it created files smaller than the iPhone's own videos. But with this new update all of that has become useless. I cannot save any videos to the camera roll. It simply hangs in the loading screen. Please fix :( **Developer response:** Hi CommentLeaver, we're sorry for any inconvenient you are experiencing. Check the newest version 6.0.1 please, we've fixed several bugs and now we support iOS11. We hope you give Easy Calc another chance! Kind regards. ### 1/5 — PIN NEVER WORKS *2015-10-01, version 5.0.5* Can't unlock from neither PIN entry screens, the 4 digit entry screen does nothing after I enter the code and the calculator screen works for a while but after going in and out a few times it quits accepting the code no matter how many times you hit that = sign. I have to reinstall the app and I always loose ALL my data. Please fix ASAP!!!! ### 1/5 — Motion sensor doesn't download *2015-09-02* All looked good, bought the full app and tried to load the motion sensor which doesn't download! Was of time ### 1/5 — Crashing All The time after update *2015-07-04, version 5.0.1* The app use to work just fine for a long time. What ever was done in this update made it drop 4 stars. ### 1/5 — Crapy *2014-07-28, version 4.1.2* Crapy don't waste your money after you record, it doesn't work.👎👎👎👎👎 ### 1/5 — Video/Imagen pesimo *2014-07-26, version 4.1.2* La instale en un ipod touch 5g y la cámara se ve super mal (fotos y videos, frontal y trasera) como estirada/deformada al igual que los fondos que elijo del carrete ### 1/5 — Bad app *2014-02-13* Waste of money. Videos do not even save. ### 1/5 — Gots some issues *2014-02-06, version 4.1.2* 5 bucks makes one think all options will be open when you pay. The ad mentions motion detection, but turns out it's another 1.99 to get it. Not only that but worst of all it will not record a video without an error message. I tried it several ways but after no less then ten mins you get error. And the clock feature will fade away to show "error!". Leaving your ipad open and unlocked for whoever may see the error message to now explore your ipad. I spent six bucks and now don't find this useable. Seems like it's been a bit since an update I don't know if any of this can or will be fixed but as for now. I can't say I recommend it. But please try so that I can, I will redo my review if it improves. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Latest update fixed all my issues *2018-05-17, version 6.0.3* Just updated the app and all the functional I’ve missed for over a yr is finally working properly. Glad they decided to show love to this forgotten gem! **Developer response:** Hi Mr Truth Hurts, we're sorry for any inconvenient you are experiencing. Check the newest version 6.0.1 please, we've fixed several bugs and now we support iOS11. We hope you give Easy Calc another chance! Kind regards. ### 5/5 — Best app cam for your $$$$ *2015-07-25, version 5.0.2* So you have a 64gb iphone. Why not use the extra space to record!! I have bought the md spy and many other apps. This one is a perfect 10. You can record all you want both front rear camera. Take pics. And even has a password, to unlock you see a calculator. So no one will know that you have this hidden cam app. Great job and video quality is excellent!!!! ### 5/5 — Good game *2013-11-04, version 4.1.2* It's worth the money ### 5/5 — This is the best app in the market I love it *2013-07-24, version 4.0.2* Will recommend 100% ### 5/5 — I love it *2013-04-10, version 4.0.1* Its good ### 5/5 — Pretty darn good *2013-04-08, version 4.0.1* It's not perfect, but trust me, it's the best on the market right now. 5 stars! ### 5/5 — perfect *2013-01-21, version 3.2.1* this app have all you nees for spy recordering.. ### 5/5 — Great app! *2013-01-08, version 3.2.1* So fun to play around with and well worth the money. ### 5/5 — Buy it- you won't be disappointed *2012-11-16, version 3.2.1* Easy to use. Will compress files to big to email from iPhone. It's the cheapest easiest storage I have found. ### 4/5 — Choppy video *2018-10-16* Whenever I record a video and view it or save it, it’s always very choppy and it’s pretty much useless video. Please try to fix this and also I think the recording indicator is too obvious, maybe make it a small red dot in the top corner? --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
