Very nice for casual use

This app is extremely simple and easy to use. It does well what it says it does. However, I have used it for a week or two, and noticed that the video quality is not as well as the default camera app. It’s heavily compressed and you can clearly see some artifacts from the compression. That’s fine for casual use, but I would not use the app for precious moments like your baby’s first steps. The quality is not good enough for once-in-a-lifetime moments.

Update: there is a new issue after the latest update. This app now shoots only vertical videos. This may be OK for some people, but it is a deal breaker for the rest of us.

Thank you for your review! We are hoping to allow the user to select the video resolution in one of our next updates.

It WAS good.

This was an amazing app, but a recent update makes me abandon it and go back to my camera. Please bring back the timer. The majority of the time it does not save the videos. Disappointing because it was our go to for a long time.

Exactly what I need!

I used to always be the mom who turned the video on and filmed a bunch of wasted minutes hoping that my son or daughter would get the ball and do something awesome (so I can send to grandparents), only to be flustered that I'm filming too long and nothing has happened and just turn it off, and then to my dismay have something great happen seconds later and miss it. So lame. Thankfully that is no longer an issue with this app. It is so convenient to be able to just leave it on until that great moment happens and I know for sure it is captured. And not only that- there is no editing needed!! I also have put my phone on a tripod and just watched the game without even looking at my camera, and still could capture the moments I wanted by just pressed a button really quick when something great happened. I also have been able to capture some things I didn’t even intend to capture because I know the film is running and I want to watch it later. Like when I think a bad call was made in a sporting event (so I can review it myself later and feel vindicated) or when something funny or unusual happens that I want to watch it over. This app is just so useful and fun! I use it every time I get out my video camera these days (my kids are constantly providing great opportunities to get good footage with this app). And it all saves to the same place as other videos on my phone with no hassle. So easy to use and so perfect! Love it!!

Never miss a moment!!

I love this app! I use it for all my kids’ baseball, basketball, and soccer games. I get all those moments that I would’ve missed if I didn’t want to record it all the time. It’s awesome!
