This feature was available before without any issues not now. ### 1/5 — UPDATE IS AWFUL *2026-08-21, version 10.0.1* I have used this app for years to produce videos for work. The new update has ruined all capability of using the front camera. Completely awful! ### 3/5 — Hoping for more *2026-08-21, version 10.0.1* It’s really recent so I know it has a lot of potential to get better with the glitches. So far after testing the stabilization modes (after it was fixed last week) it is far better than other apps I’ve used before for recording. Although true, I cannot continue using the app because although I select to record HEVC with Apple log 2, it still creates huge files. Saving these huge recording to my camera roll I can see they are still ProRes. So now I’m back to blackmagic until they fix this. ### 1/5 — I Hate It!!! *2026-08-18, version 10.0.1* They absolutely ruined it. This was my favorite camera app of all time. Now it's confusing, the font is tiny and the way it's arranged isn't user friendly. And the worse part is that they didn't give me the option to stay with the old version; the one that I actually paid for. Gone to BlackMagic. ### 1/5 — New version is very much a let down *2026-08-17, version 10.0.1* The new update seems to have lost the features and flexibilty I loved about this app. My gripes reflect modern technology and being forced into the newest software update everytime. Really hoped this app was just gonna remain archaic yet compatable with my phone. Oh well. ### 2/5 — Everything feature I purchased this app for has been either obscured, removed, or worsened *2026-08-14, version 10.0.1* Initially, the key reason I purchased this app was because I wanted to have the available feature to switch camera lenses mid-recording. Now that has been REMOVED. Much of my preference for this app was flexibility in the workflow, and this included quick switching from face cam to what I’m seeing in a vlog type of format. My app auto-updated without warning and now I’m left without it. Then, the feature that made me love the app was ALSO REMOVED, that being the ability to set custom resolutions. Now I’m locked into 16:9 it seems, because even though “framing guides” are said to be available these are NOT functioning properly. I wanted to exclusively shoot in 4:3, and it was working for a period after updating but now both the crop and framing guide options aren’t even appearing. Before my workflow was to use 1440x1080 at 60fps but not this isn’t working or seeming to appear. I’ve also noticed there’s very little functionality even with the customization that’s left. I often will try and run different resolutions with different frame-rates and the app just freezes or displays a black screen. This is poor design. If it doesn’t work there should be conflict notifications before even allowing the user to set them. But I have a feeling it’s supposed to work and doesn’t, because it USED TO WORK. It also doesn’t seem to let me pick a custom audio sample rate at all. What’s the deal with that? Has the options displaying but when I tap… nothing happens. Just stays on auto. Everything being, “you can only record this way with these settings,” when this was not the case before and everything worked fine is super annoying. Further, one added feature that should be toggle-able rather than default is the pop-up providing recording information on the shot. I do not want to have to close out a window every time I finish recording before I can start the next shot. It’s nice to be able to instantly open a preview, but it shouldn’t be so obtrusive that I can’t instantly start recording the next shot. Instead I have to press stop, film next shot, then start again. Just another unneeded tap in the workflow that could potentially prevent me from missing a shot. One leftover feature that I’m glad carried over is the ability to designate which microphone is recording the audio. I always tend to use the “Front (Top)” option since I’m recording voice much of the time. However, I think it would be cool if the app were capable of recording multiple microphones and saving the files and separate audio tracks like other cameras do; then you could choose later from the mics you had selected. But I don’t know if this is possible with iPhone. And, admittedly, I do like how the “Stabilize” toggle has been moved to be accessible via the main interface rather than requiring I enter settings to change it. I don’t remember the original placement of the “Torch” toggle but I like where its placement is as well. Very easy to access mid-recording. Overall I’m really disappointed but perhaps these are fixable issues. If not, I’d like to seek a refund, especially if I find another app to be more suitable and containing the features I need and have incorporated into my workflow. However, the request refund feature from within the app doesn’t even seem to work? I’d really really like you to bring back the ability to switch lenses mid recording, even if it means putting an “Unstable” warning when activating the feature. Because I know I’m the past it would sometimes crash when you tried flipping the camera but it would work often enough that consideration of the crash was incorporated into my workflow. EDIT: After playing around more I got the frame-guide to reappear. However, I had to go into Auto Mode then back into Pro. It wasn’t not instantly refreshing upon updating setting as it was supposed to. Or, the app just wasn’t loading it properly until leaving the mode, I don’t know. And it does seem that the desired resolution I had is now appearing again once 4:3 is selected, but it wasn’t before. So I think there might be issues with loading in the proper settings in the interface. Or I really don’t know why it works now. I swapped to the YouTube Studio preset first so maybe that’s part of it? ### 1/5 — bait and switch update *2026-08-14, version 10.0.1* the latest update removes all the “pro” functionality and makes it virtually useless, and they released a new paid app with the old interface and functionality. this kind of forced paid update should not be allowed in the app store. ### 1/5 — trash update *2026-08-12, version 10.0* completely broke the app with an update won’t even record now ### 1/5 — Revamp ruined this app *2026-08-11* Before the revamp I had all my settings set precisely as I needed. The revamp did not transfer my old settings, so I was forced to learn how to use this unintuitive update before I could start filming. The font is so tiny I can barely see what each setting is. The update has completely ruined every reason I used this app. I am now forced to use Long-Record mode (otherwise it cuts clips, which the old app never did). But this option forces you to use Apple’s basic camera processing - completely defeating the reason I bought this app! My front view camera mode will not stop flipping the image, no matter which option I choose for the “Mirror Front Camera” setting. I also can no longer capture wide angles using the front camera, as the previous version allowed. I can no longer adjust the temperature with a single preset click using the Auto setting - it can only be adjusted using the Pro setting, which is MUCH more complicated to use. I hate the revamp. They have ruined a very good app, and there are no replacements for what they’ve destroyed. **Developer response:** Sorry to note you had trouble using the app. We are back to work now and shall be posting regular and revamped updates, please update to latest version 9.0.8 and let us know if it fixes the issue. ### 1/5 — No sound *2026-08-11, version 10.0* No sound after iOS update to 16 plus. Terrible , recent updates have not fixed the app. Seems messed up forever. I would not recommend. 4/13/23. After updating movie pro and the remote app, it no longer works. 8/11/2026 prolly the worst update I’ve ever seen on an app. Basically changed everything , appears removed the remote feature or is inoperable. Very bad update. Need a 50 page book just to understand all the changes. ## Frequently asked questions about MoviePro ### What does MoviePro do?

Preferred Zoom UI (+/- or zoom rocker) can be enabled in Settings. • Supported microphones gain manual input-gain control. • Take Receipts are now off by default and can be enabled at any time in Settings. This keeps the recording view unobstructed, based on user feedback. • iPad capture controls, audio panels, Settings and Library playback are clearer and better fitted in both orientations. • Apple Log, Apple Log 2, ProRes SDR and 10-bit HEVC now preserve color and codec intent more accurately. • Stabilization tiers are resolved against the active camera format, with clearer unavailable states. • Frame-drop handling is more accurate, and capture-pipeline performance has been optimized for demanding recording formats. • Numerous fixes and enhancements make recording start and stop, clip finalization when MoviePro moves to the background, lens switching, Long Record codec handling and zoom more reliable. • UX refinements improve text sizing, legibility and accessibility, addressing feedback about controls that were difficult to read. NOTE: To switch between the front and rear cameras while recording, select 'Dual' scene and choose 'Cam Switch' as the recording type. Stabilization and zoom in DualCam have also been fixed. Dual scene provides seamless switching between cameras with zero delay. Thank you for the reports that shaped this update. Keep them coming at support@moviepro.app. ### 10.0.1 — 2026-08-13 MoviePro 10.0.1 is a stability and fidelity release, built almost entirely from your reports since the 10.0 launch. Thank you for sending them — nearly every line below started as an email. WHERE TO FIND TWO CONTROLS YOU'VE ASKED ABOUT • Front camera — tap the lens chip at the top right of the viewfinder, in either Auto or Pro, and choose Front. The chip reads FR while the front camera is live. Lenses can't be swapped mid-take. • Stabilization — in Pro, tap the More button at the top right, then Stabilize: Off, Standard, Cinematic or Extreme. In Auto, MoviePro manages stabilization for you and shows the mode it chose in the pre-flight checklist. FIXED — IMAGE • Recorded video looked washed out, dull and desaturated next to the preview. The recording path now states its colour correctly, so what you see is what lands in the file. • Stabilization silently switched off after changing lens or flipping to the front camera, and stayed off until the next settings change. • Cold-boot recordings could drop to 8-bit despite a 10-bit setting. FIXED — CRASHES AND FAILED TAKES • Crash when starting a 4K60 ProRes take on internal storage. ProRes 4K60 now records internally. • Crash when switching between HDR and SDR with the camera running. • Crashes when setting focus point, exposure compensation or zoom. • Crash when switching modes while a session was tearing down. • DualCam could refuse to start a recording entirely. • A freeze when tapping Record. FIXED — FRONT CAMERA AND ORIENTATION • iPhone 17 Pro: front-camera files recorded upside-down. • The Mirror Front Cam setting behaved backwards. • Preview flipped the wrong way when rotating the phone. • Launching with the front camera saved now starts on the front camera. FIXED — DUALCAM • Audio dropped out when switching cameras mid-take. • The front camera was stretched in composited takes. • A black first frame at the start of a recording. • Your PIP position and live camera are restored between sessions. • Larger, more reliable touch targets throughout. FIXED — LONG RECORD • The preview froze after a 4K take or a mode switch. • Long Record now honours your H.264 and ProRes codec choice instead of always recording HEVC. • Remote preview holds a steady frame rate while recording 4K. FIXED — ELSEWHERE • "Frames Dropping" warnings counted preview frames as lost footage — they now report only what actually left your recording. • The Take Receipt could mislabel the frame rate of a clip. • Storage warnings no longer claim a block that isn't there. • Status pills could creep under the Dynamic Island in portrait. • Importing a photo could fail without telling you. NEW • 100 and 200 fps high-speed recording. • Volume buttons start and stop recording. Turn it off in Settings › Lens & Rig. • Screen Dimmer gains a Black level — hide the preview completely while recording to save power. • A time-of-day timecode track on recorded files, for DaVinci Resolve and Final Cut Pro. • Pro capture settings — ISO, shutter angle, white balance, lens, aperture, stabilization — embedded in every Pro file. • Tap the gold badge on a preset to deselect it. • Tap to Hide Interface, with an explanation of what it does. • A support diagnostics block, so a bug report can carry the facts we need to fix it. Keep the reports coming — support@moviepro.app. They work. ### 10.0 — 2026-08-06 MoviePro 10 is a ground-up rewrite — new capture engine, new interface, new everything. • All-new Auto mode that makes the pro exposure, focus and white-balance decisions for you • Rebuilt Pro mode: precision manual rails for ISO, shutter, white balance, tint, focus and zoom, plus A/B focus pulls • Presets, expanded: one-tap Pro setups — Interview, Field Report, Music Performance, YouTube Studio, Cinematic Log • ProRes, Apple Log and 10-bit HDR recording • Exact NTSC capture at 23.98, 29.97 and 59.94 fps in Pro mode on supported devices • Live waveform, vectorscope and RGB parade scopes • DualCam: record front and back cameras at once • Remote-control a second iPhone over your local network • Take Receipt after every clip — know exactly what you shot • Redesigned library, full iPad layouts, and a new Apple Watch app To longtime MoviePro users: thank you for your patience. This rewrite is for you — and everything you already paid for stays yours.
