what a scam!!

Paying $12.99 a month for an app that lacks editing features such as only limited to cutting a certain amount from a longer video, the app doesn’t support an option to use Spotify/Apple Music (or import soundbites). No customisations or themes, and most vlogs not uploaded in chronological order.

I love the concept of this app, which gives old school “2010’s” YouTube vlogger vibes, but paying $12.99 a month is such a rip off!! It would be unbeatable if they lowered the price to $6.99 a month, or gave us ads in-between vlogs - just plsss get rid of this so we can enjoy vlogging again!!

Stupid App

I was a hardcore Camcord supporter. I found the app three years right before my vacation in England. I had made many videos from that time that I have watched over and over again. It used to be a great app. Understandably, they changed the app around in the last few years to improve. With this came a paid subscription, which was annoying at first but oh well you know. I paid for it around my second vacation after I got married because I wanted to create new memories and I was still a hardcore fan (although some things I didn’t like). I stopped using the app for a min and in July (only a month ago I remembered I had an vlog I didn’t post so let me post it). So I only been inactive for what a month? A little over a month? Why did I get a notification today that ALL of my vlogs have been deleted with no warning?? For someone who been loyal to your app and paid into the system you’re telling me this is how you’re going to treat us? Inactivity is a joke that’s something for 6 months or over a year like I would understand that. ALSO A WARNING would’ve been great that hey in 24 hours they will be deleted. NO, they wanted to ruin their own customer base and DELETE all of our memories. I’m so upset bc I never saved half of my vlogs anywhere else. I had plans to but I was waiting to get a new phone to do so. I’ve been crying all day. I really hope they can get back to me and help me. I need those vlogs!! Please!!! I’m never using this app again until I get them back!

Disappointing

I’m so disappointed this app put everything behind a paywall now. $7.99 a month for a silly little camera app is ridiculous. I’d consider a subscription if the price was much lower. I love the concept of this app and it used to be so fun to use. Rip.

Recovering Vlogs

I had a bunch of vlogs that were sitting waiting to be uploaded and then all of a sudden they were no where to be seen. I thought they had gotten deleted but then I noticed a new “recoverable vlogs found” link. And every-time I click on it, it’s just takes me out of the app and back to my home page. Is that an issue for anyone else? I know my vlogs are in there but j am unable to access them. Can someone please help me recover those vlogs, because they weren’t deleted. Otherwise I love this app, I’ve been using it for years now.

Not Free PayWall

And the paid is monthly not a one time purchase. Shame

I loved it when it didn’t cost money for trimming or even saving your videos!

Change it back

Meh

Just not working that well. I can’t find where I can add music and the editing is annoying and not easy to use

DON’T GET THIS APP

I’ve been a faithful Camcord user for three years. THREE YEARS. I had 337 vlogs. I was a subscriber for two years but didn’t purchase this year due to not vlogging as much as I used to. I was more using this app to store my vlogs and then vlogging once or twice a month. This morning I got a notification from my nightmares that all of my vlogs were deleted due to inactivity. I was inactive for TWO WEEKS. There was NO WARNING and now all 337 vlogs from the past three years of my life are GONE. Luckily, I had already saved most of them but the previous ones from my first couple months of vlogging were not saved and those are now gone. I’ve emailed support and gotten no response. I subscribed again and the vlogs did not return. This is insane and outrageous to do this without warning to someone who has a been a user of this app for years. Be warned and use and different app unless you want your vlogs deleted one a random morning without warning or your permission. I’m heartbroken.

Deleted all my videos

Had it for ages and then today everything, all my vlogs, disappeared. i used this app a lot and now everything is gone. please fix this!!!!

Lost videos

I am livid. I downloaded this app the day before my 20th birthday so I could vlog all of my 20th year of life. I knew I couldn’t post the Vlogs without paying for it, but I didn’t know that they would delete after a couple of days if I didn’t post them. I have the day before my birthday up till now completely lost now and I couldn’t be more upset about it.

Unfortunate

It’s a good app. But putting everything behind a paywall and deleting old vlogs is ridiculous. You cannot make an account on this app without three reminded begging you to buy the paid version. Furthermore every time I post a negative review on this app it disappears. Hard to believe that this app has four stars.

You can’t upload vlogs unless subscribed

It was good until they deleted my vlog previous to the update and it’s mandatory to subscribe to upload any vlogs now

DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS!

So I had originally downloaded this app to use it as intended and then things changed to where the app wouldn’t let me save my videos I had already made. I have tried contacting them but they never answered. Then I found out my videos that I had made on the app were gone. Completely gone. I contacted them again about it. Never got a reply back and now the app doesn’t even let me login in and unfortunately there’s no way I will ever be able to get them back. DO NOT DOWNLOAD! or if you were to download it once you make your videos- save your videos to your phone yourself and not just the app that way you will still be able to have your videos even if the app does work anymore, but i wouldn’t download it, if I were you.

All my videos down the drain

I’ve been using Camcord since 2023 and this app has became something that I’ve used frequently to capture special moments in my life and to keep up with what my friends have going on. I’ve recommended this to so many people and I’m so heartbroken that all of my footage is gone. I’ve been seeing the complaints and the reviews about people’s videos deleting randomly and it even has happened to a friend, but I just wouldn’t have thought that that happened to me. I installed the app again and every single video gone. Please save your time. Save the heartbreak. The $3.99 doesn’t even help with anything just don’t download the app.

What’s the point?

Not only did yall lower the video times now we have no recently deleted. No back up. I was in the middle of uploading a video and my WiFi went out and now my video is NOWHERE to be found! I loved that video now there’s nothing. For a subscribing vlog, you guys are giving us less than BARE MINIMUM.

All my videos are not loading

I have a few years worth of videos on my profile, mostly 2023. all the titles show up when i scroll through them in the camcord first page, but they’re all with zero thumbnail & when i click on them they’re blank. not even showing on my profile. i pay for the subscription too so i have unlimited uploads. when i try to contact support it just automatically crashes the app. is that on purpose? there is zero way to ask for support, even the app store gives an invalid domain link for the app’s website. can the dev please help me recover my media.

Requires phone number

I don’t want to give it

It’s not worth it

I put my number in and it just kept loading. I don’t recommend getting bc it’s not working

I would of loved to see this app take off.

Used to be great and completely free..now it’s subscription based. When I first used it, it reminded me what it felt like when Instagram was new and curious. You guys really had something going… just needed more people to see it for what it really is. I think this format of social media can be the next thing. A lot of people are going back to camcorders and small digital cams. Going back to feelings of nostalgic home videos And this basically modernizes it without the whole editing process.
