### 3/5 — Does not record for long periods of time

*2021-07-19*

I was trying to record my nocturnal seizures, and even though it showed it was recording all night. It didn’t show up at all later on. I have enough gigabytes on my iPad to do more video for more than 2 nights. Was disappointed.

### 1/5 — WASTE OF MONEY

*2020-03-22*

This app is very lucky I’m Quarantined and bored because of the coronavirus. Otherwise I would NOT have bought this

### 1/5 — DOESNT WORK !!!  DONT BUY

*2020-02-12*

Crashes stops for no reason the list goes on !!!!  Absolutely worthless

### 1/5 — One star

*2020-01-15*

Not really work with my iPhone 11

### 1/5 — Very Disappointed

*2019-12-21*

Basically, this does not work and I really regret paid for it.

You can record 5 seconds video, but anything longer will not save the video.
Meaning your one time special moment video will not be save.

Very disappointed of this apps and should be taken out from IOS apps store.  So nobody will experience same disappointment.

Don’t lose your money and special memory by using this apps

### 1/5 — Cheated out of $4

*2019-10-05*

Apple should pull this devs app down! Doesn't work for video filter as advertised!!! The photo green filter does, then when you flip it to video it goes back to regular color, plus the image looks like total horse squeeze! Total scam!!! Don’t buy this app and Apple really needs to put a option in for people to get their money back!!

### 1/5 — It doesn’t work. I

*2019-08-05*

I suggest not to buy this app.

### 3/5 — Works but crashes

*2019-05-06*

I bought this app to try and catch the person in my street that keeps keying my car at night. The video night vision is the only one that works in the App Store. It gives a reasonable colour picture with a lot more light and definition of the street. My basic iPhone 7 camera is totally useless in comparison. If I could just leave it running all night it would be perfect. Problem is it crashes at random times losing the video taken. Maximum time I’ve managed to run it is just under an hour. If you don’t mind saving it every 20 mins and restarting it then this is your thing. Real shame.

### 3/5 — Great for the money

*2019-04-21*

If you think you can turn your cell phone into a high end night vision camera I have some ocean front property in Phoenix. It does a good job of helping you see in the dark. One day you May see 👀 true value in it

### 3/5 — Possibly useful for photos

*2019-03-27*

Works ok, so far my internal night vision cAn beat the app but I can imagine it being helpful especially for taking a photo in the dark.
