진짜 잘쓰던 어플인데 갑자기 사용 불가하다고 떠서 슬픔을 뒤로하고 삭제 눌렀는데ㅜㅜ 여행을 앞두고 캠코더 어플 검색해보니 다시 다운 되네요ㅜㅜ 너무 감사합니다 이거 쓰면 주변에서 대체 어떤 어플이냐고 많이 물어봐요 캠코더 비싸게 안줘도 캠코더 감성 쌉가능 ㅠ 감사합니다 정말

Most practical app ever.

That fact that this app is free is amazing. It doesn’t over complicate anything, it just lets you record retro style and sends it right to your camera roll. Love it. Takes me back to my childhood home videos in the 90s. Well done!
