### 4/5 — Recovering Vlogs

*2026-05-29, version 2026.4.2*

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.

### 3/5 — Meh

*2026-04-22, version 2026.4.1*

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

### 1/5 — What’s the point?

*2026-02-03, version 2025.10.0*

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.

### 2/5 — All my videos are not loading

*2025-12-19*

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.

### 1/5 — Requires phone number

*2025-11-29, version 2025.10.0*

I don’t want to give it

### 1/5 — It’s not worth it

*2025-11-09, version 2025.10.0*

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

### 1/5 — I would of loved to see this app take off.

*2025-11-07, version 2025.10.0*

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.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2025-11-03, version 2025.10.0*

I’ve used this app for years, so it’s really hard for me to rate it this low.

I’m just extremely frustrated over the lack of features, especially one that is “recently deleted.”

Recently I was trying to upload a video I had spent awhile making and I was super excited to watch and relive everything I had captured. The video failed to upload and it was permanently erased, I suppose. This is the second time I’ve had an issue with losing a video. I have reached out for support but there was no response on both occasions. 

Truly disheartening considering I’ve paid for the annual subscription. I can say with confidence that it’s not actually worth it. The editing features are quite difficult to work with, and there aren’t enough of them.  I’ve seen stickers “Coming soon” for years, not that I want them.

I’m convinced the creator and associated team have given up on actually continuing this app. Just sad overall…

### 1/5 — Pay to vlog

*2025-09-17, version 2025.5.0*

This app was so much fun and all I did was vlog and share with my friends and we used to vlog and share with eachother all the time. Now you have to pay just to vlog which is ridiculous. It used to be such a good app until now having to pay just to vlog it’s ridiculous. Please change it back.

### 1/5 — cant get in

*2025-09-10, version 2025.5.0*

i used to use this app a lot a year ago in my iphone 11. this year i changed phones and now i can’t get pass the phone number request to get in the app. i’ve been trying for so long and still can’t get in. such a shame cause i really like it and it’s suck a dumb bug.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2025-09-09, version 2025.5.0*

Deleted all your past vlogs and only gives you two free ones the rest you have to pay for a subscription… and deleting people’s past vlogs is just greed

### 3/5 — Help!??

*2025-08-20, version 2025.5.0*

Is there a way to recover a deleted clip?!

### 2/5 — can’t see my vlogs!! pls help!

*2025-08-19, version 2025.5.0*

i love this app. however, i can no longer see any vlogs i’ve posted. i’ve emailed and tried to reach out to the company for assistance, but never received response. i vlogged the hardest month of my life on this app, and it means a lot of i would be able to get the videos back. this is my last ditch effort to get it back so if someone from the company sees this please please please 🙏🙏 i need those videos. i even bought the subscription to try to see if that was the issue but it was not. please.

### 1/5 — disappointed

*2025-08-07, version 2025.5.0*

deleted my old videos and now asking for me to pay a subscription to film more ??? very disappointing

### 1/5 — good concept. awful app

*2025-07-01, version 2025.5.0*

awful that you have to pay to download and release the vlog! it also takes an age to release it. mine hasn’t been able to release and there is nothing i can do to get my video clips any other way! good idea but awfully executed :(

### 1/5 — export issues

*2025-06-23, version 2025.5.0*

my exporting doesn’t even work?? i was rly looking forward to using this app

### 1/5 — Funktionen

*2025-06-05*

Hab es ausversehen gekauft und nachdem man dafür sogar Geld gezahlt hat kann man nichtmal Musik in den Hintergrund packen. Instragram hat mehr Schrift/Farb Funktionen. Man kann einfach nur die clips kürzen und löschen aber das war’s eigentlich auch im großen Ganzen. Kriegt man auch auf anderen Plattformen kostenlos und sogar besser. Einfach CapCut benutzen

### 2/5 — wont let me log in anymore

*2025-04-20, version 2024.12.0*

!?

### 1/5 — Never Use

*2025-03-17, version 2024.12.0*

I downloaded camcord was was vlogging and it took away all of my footage. There was no indication that one was only allowed to film 30 minutes of footage and I recorded more and it deleted ALL of my footage’s. I published what I could and it deleted all of my draft and when I click the video I published I see nothing. Terrible app, I can no longer see my favorite memories…

### 1/5 — Stupid App

*2026-08-21*

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!

### 1/5 — Not Free PayWall

*2026-06-27, version 2026.4.2*

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

### 1/5 — I loved it when it didn’t cost money for trimming or even saving your videos!

*2026-05-03, version 2026.4.2*

Change it back

### 1/5 — DON’T GET THIS APP

*2026-04-10*

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.

### 1/5 — Deleted all my videos

*2026-03-28, version 2023.3.5*

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!!!!

### 1/5 — Lost videos

*2026-03-26, version 2023.3.4*

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.

### 1/5 — Unfortunate

*2026-03-19, version 2026.3.1*

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.

### 1/5 — You can’t upload vlogs unless subscribed

*2026-03-19, version 2026.3.1*

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

### 1/5 — DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS!

*2026-03-03*

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.

### 1/5 — All my videos down the drain

*2026-02-22*

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.

### 5/5 — Genuinely best app of my life.

*2025-10-10, version 2025.10.0*

I’ve been on camcord since 2023. I’ve used it as a way to vlog fun moments with my friends and it actually became a huge thing in my high school. Everyone knew me as someone with an app called “camcord” who would vlog over the weekends. Camcord has connected me with so many people and I am forever thankful for the app. I’ve been #2 as a top camcorder for years! Thank you camcord.

### 5/5 — 10/10 App

*2023-10-08*

Vertraut mir holt euch die App mit paar Freunden das ist geisteskrank lustig

### 5/5 — !!!UPLOADING CLIP NOT ABLE TO REMOVE!!!

*2023-07-19*

Love the idea of this app but there's a file that is still uploading and I am unable to delete it. It spills onto the next vlog and I cannot upload that vlog unless that clip is done. I've done everything to try to remove the clip and it still won't work. Been occurring for 2 weeks now. Please fix!!!! I've been wanting to use the app but if this issue won't be fixed then I'm gonna have to not recommend to others as this is a potential issue that will cause others to not vlog w this app.

### 5/5 — Incredible concept

*2023-07-19, version 2023.6.2*

The concept of this app is amazing and I know for sure its going to be the next big thing.
Some improvements:
Should be able to record offline- I shouldnt have to waste my data just to vlog.
Should be able to save to camera roll. I cant see the vlogs on anywhere apart from the app which annoys me.
Some bug improvements- My friends tried following me but it won’t show up?

### 5/5 — Very fun!

*2023-07-15, version 2023.6.2*

This app is so fun, you get to choose what people see your post. I love how in one video it’s mixed with all the other little clips but in a way so it stays organized. Overall good app and I recommend getting it for fun 👍 (the rate is a 4.5 cuz it’s basic but fun with a tad of creative)

### 5/5 — it’s a cute app! 10/10

*2023-07-06*

I just downloaded it today and loved it sm!! hopefully one day we add a text like subtitles to our vlogs 😊 whoever came up with this idea is amazing

### 5/5 — The New Way of Connecting

*2023-07-03*

I love this new app it makes it a lot easier to stay connected to friends and family you don’t get to see often. Now I can see them at the end of every night when everyone has posted their Vlog. Camcord makes like so much more interesting and even motivates me to do more throughout my day.

### 5/5 — My disappointment

*2023-07-02*

I don't know if this update will allow me to add a description as well as a name for each videos that I recorded. I do not want each video to have the same descriptions as the first video.

### 5/5 — Geilo

*2023-07-01*

Die App ist funny fr holt euch die alle

### 5/5 — Suggestion

*2023-07-01*

I deleted the app an redownloaded it, but when I type in my phone number and click the arrow it loads for a second and then nothing happens can you guys fix this please
