Cannot upload

It would be nice to be able to upload my own clips to get a vhs effect. I mean I paid 5 quid. I’d like to get the Flipcorder look on some older footage or when I forgot to film using the app

Viewfinder orientation problem

When using this app, I was confused by the orientation I was recording in. I understand it seems to follow the orientation of the actual sensor but the display in the app will show a square window when recording with the phone in landscape mode. Only problem is that when the phone is in landscape mode, the sensor is in portrait. When turning the phone to portrait mode on the screen, it shows a portrait mode image, but the sensor is in landscape mode. I would greatly appreciate an update with the implementation to change the viewfinder to reflect how the video will be seen, or at least a setting that can be toggled to do so.

I am specifically referring to the fact that the viewfinder display is a square image but when I view the recording, it is the aspect ratio of my phone camera sensor. I would like the ability for the recording to be saved in the square aspect ratio. Thank you, otherwise I love using the app!

Thank you, and you're right! With Portrait Orientation Lock on, the viewfinder doesn't turn with the phone, even though the recording does. A fix is coming in an update. Until then, turning the lock off in Control Center makes the viewfinder match what you're filming. Glad you are excited and enjoying the app, that means so much to me!

Very smart

This is a fantastic way of utilising the iPhone’s cameras

Thanks I’m so glad you are enjoying Flipcorder!

Good but let is record when the Duo is closed

I love the idea of this, and the app looks great, and works nicely. However on the cover display I can rotate it 90 degrees and get the camera screen but I can’t use it so I have to open the Duo. It’s a nice mechanic, but there are times I don’t want to open it and use it like that. Please give us the option to record when the Duo is closed too.

That’s a great feedback point - thanks! I don’t have a Duo yet myself so this is super helpful! If you’d want to be a tester to try out new features quicker and help shape the future of the product, email me from the app website and I’ll get you setup!

Back in the 90s

Absolutely love this app. I used to live with a VHS camcorder attached to me, recording everything I could through my oversized and shoulder crushing viewfinder. I love the way this turns the sequential recordings into a video journal, and allows you to relive your days as tapes. I really hope this takes off and gets the support it deserves, because I would like to see new features down the line. Suggestions: even more tape and sticker designs. Box sleeves that replicate the 80s and 90a synth wave magic that was always on loudly strewn across them. The option to rewind the tape when you eject it. Custom effects that were on the 90s camcorders like black and white, sepia, fade to black, etc. Integration with Apple Music. And finally, a completely ad-free, algorithm free social option that allows you to peruse videos like you’re in a Blockbuster and see other people’s home movies. Make it one time payment forever. Better yet, just partner with me and we can really get this thing off the ground. I have 15 years of design and advertising experience, let’s roll.

Thank you, this made my day! You're exactly who I built Flipcorder for. Rewind on eject, more tapes, stickers and sleeves, and the old camcorder effects are all on the list now. Lots more to come!

Flipcorder is the best of all

Having used many Camcorder apps, I can honestly say that Flipcorder is the best, It is easily my favourite app of all time, it is so good that it is my go to app.
