### 1/5 — Mentiras

*2026-02-11*

Mienten que es gratis y ni no dejan ni probar la cámara gratis

### 1/5 — Avoid the rage of losing everything

*2025-06-20*

Initial 30sec to 1min tests were fine at first. Then I thought I captured my best art, public quarrel and love. I stopped recording to see “Error saving. See storage.” No winning video, ANYWHERE.

My remaining hard storage was 75%. The app’s “gallery” was empty with a spattering of useless shorts—I did cut my nose hair tho. 

No explanation. No help option, just an email that’ll probably never respond with help. 

It seems as though the videos also overwrite each other despite utilizing the Pro trial sub. The screen isn’t even black; a small pic of your #preview” face remains on the screen, can’t get it out of the ping walls and can’t squish it to oblivion.

The programming and user interface is a farce. I lost 8 hours of my life to something that initially seemed perfect for the purpose. I hope none of you make the same mistake.

**Developer response:** Thank you for sharing this—I’m really sorry to hear what happened.
I’m actively improving the app and working to deliver the best possible quality with every update—as a user myself, I understand how important that is.
If you’re open to it, I’d love to learn more about the issue so I can better understand what went wrong. Feel free to reach me at chmiel.dev@gmail.com.
