## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Una absoluta basura a todos los niveles

*2021-07-06*

No hace nada con un mínimo de lógica o sentido común. Vaya rotunda ponzoña de aplicación.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work on my XS

*2020-06-24*

I’ve deleted and redownloaded several times and it doesn’t show me my videos. Ran several tests and can’t see the videos or save them to my phone. Seems cool but glitchy right now. I’ll change my review if you can fix this issue. 
Also seems to be very lacking in features and video info
UPDATE: 
Still doesn’t work well and no reply from devs.

### 2/5 — Very cool concept, I want to like it, but…

*2021-09-19*

When I try to save a video it just says it’s saving indefinitely, and it never does anything. It’s not the free version either, I paid for the upgrade. I waited 36 minutes for a three minute video to save and nothing happened.

### 2/5 — Paid version still had watermark

*2020-02-23*

The first time I used the paid version it had no watermark.  The second time I started getting watermarks on my saved videos like in the free version. The depth of field blur could use work to.  Unless you are super close to the camera it doesn’t blur the background.

### 3/5 — No option to record in hd or 4K

*2023-02-10*

Do something and release an update for 4K or hdr support Atleast

### 3/5 — Cool app

*2020-02-03*

App seems cool - just what I was looking for!  Just one thing - I have no idea what resolution this app produces - 1080hd, 4K,. .  .  ?  Also, what is the frame rate??

Thanks

### 4/5 — Back camera

*2020-09-06*

It’s a really cool app but would be 5 stars if the back camera could be used with it.

### 4/5 — Great for front camera

*2020-04-08*

Can you improved the output resolution  on iPhone, and make it work with front camera of iPad Pro and Lidar for thé back  ? it would be perfect !
Thanks

### 4/5 — App does what it says it does

*2019-09-25*

Found it on Product Hunt and thought cool let’s try it out. App works great but just like portrait mode on the camera sometimes it’ll blur my glasses on my head but I just adjust and it’ll pick them up. This app will be perfect for standing out on IG stories and gives your videos a look similar to DSLR cameras in great lighting. I’d recommend trying it out while it’s free

**Developer response:** Thanks for the review!! As a fellow glasses-wearer that is a sore spot for me as well. The quality of the foreground/background segmentation is definitely something I am working on. It will hopefully be improved in a future update. Stay tuned!

### 5/5 — So dope BUT...

*2020-08-17*

How come it only works with the selfie can and not back cam

## Most praised reviews (4 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — App takes a while to download

*2020-05-16*

I paid for the full app, and it wouldn’t save to the camera roll, turns out it just takes a while. Great app otherwise

### 5/5 — wow!

*2020-05-12*

thanks for the work! i been searching for an app like this for long and couldn't find anything anywhere, not even jailbreaked  —  this app deserves to be known by a lot more people cuz there's no other app like this ..i found it through google and it took me straight to the AppStore. as i wanted to write this review and searched for BOCA on the AppStore, i couldn't find the App :-\ ..i then googled again. i hope you can change that somehow or get the app promoted. i would have paid for the app!
cheers,
chris

### 5/5 — Good start

*2020-03-28*

Need to support landscape ASAP.

### 5/5 — Finally!!!

*2019-12-06*

Building upon the portrait mode tech this developer has made it possible for video. Works great!!! Been waiting and searching this for a long time and it W would be perfect if it had exposure lock and a true landscape mode. Looking forward to future updates.
