### 4/5 — Really nice but one problem😀

*2021-02-20*

I love the app and it’s perfect for me though I wish they would make it so videos on your photos you could add to it

### 2/5 — Don’t like

*2020-02-15*

It does what it says but it seems like the video is very choppy when saved. I would not recommend and would like a refund if that is possible.

### 3/5 — Solves a problem but creates another

*2019-02-01*

Good UI, easy to pick up and use, but is not able to handle image stabilisation like the default iOS camera app. Big shame as this makes it unusable for me.

### 3/5 — It's Alright.

*2017-08-13*

I love this app, but half of the videos I film on there, do not save. The whole point of getting the app, was to film and be able to pause. But when it doesn't even save, (most of the time), it's sort of pointless.

### 4/5 — Pausecam

*2016-12-29, version 3.0.2*

A great app! Easy to use and very good clarity

### 3/5 — Great for pausing, no zooming though

*2016-11-30*

iPhone should have made this a default function on its own camera App for video! This is a great app for taking & pausing video filming. It would have been perfect if it had the zooming ability as in the original camera App. What a shame!

### 4/5 — good

*2016-09-13, version 3.0.2*

good app

### 4/5 — 🐩

*2016-07-12*

I love the app because my camera doesn't have a pause choice on it. The app works great and immediately saves the video to my video album and it really works great definitely worth the price

### 4/5 — GM

*2016-04-28, version 2.6.3*

It's perfect except if it has a zoom function

### 2/5 — Eh

*2016-04-03, version 2.6.3*

Yea said save failed to me kinda pointless app if you can't successfully save the video.

### 3/5 — Eh

*2016-01-14*

Don't get me wrong. This app is great...when you can get it to work. I always find myself in situations where I press record and the screen is black or it shuts down the app. Not happy since I know the app has such good potential and when I can get it to work, it's amazing! but i can rarely get it to work.

### 4/5 — Finally I can pause recordings.

*2015-12-12*

The APP works perfectly, but it would have been nice if I could still use my zoom feature.

### 5/5 — Good app

*2015-12-07*

Good app but could have some editing

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2015-11-29, version 2.6.1*

I honestly love this app so much. It's super nice and easy to vlog! So thank you for the amazing app!

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2015-11-13, version 2.6.1*

### 1/5 — My Review

*2022-06-11*

This app glitches a lot and when I finished my video it was wide. I hate this app.

### 1/5 — Stuck!

*2019-11-09*

It won't finish installing into my iPhone 4S (iOS v9.3.5). Please fix!

### 1/5 — 4K version update - older devices

*2018-03-16*

Please fix the "4K update version" to stop asking older iOS devices that don't support the latest version to update.

Thx

### 1/5 — Failed to Save

*2016-05-21*

Not impressed.  Video failed to save.   Bought sister editing app to try to remove permanent Ad button, Ad still there.

### 1/5 — 1 Star

*2016-03-11*

Downloaded this app, took first video and at the end it said "Save Failed" then immediately asked me to leave a review. Video is just gone. Well, here's your review. No way I'm trusting my moments to an app that doesn't even work the first time.  App failed and is now deleted.

### 1/5 — Very disappointed

*2015-04-21*

No zoom features. Have no idea how to delete videos. Have no idea where my videos are being stored. Said you can save to library but do not see an option for that and there are no videos there.

### 1/5 — Frustrated

*2015-02-13, version 2.3.4*

I purchased the app to record basketball games.  I pause the game at halftime.  When I go back to app after my ipad goes into sleep mode, the video I already recorded is gone.

### 1/5 — Really?!

*2015-02-09, version 2.3.4*

I spent hours on getting the set ready and the actors ready to shoot a sort film using this app, and I was almost finished and the app LOST everything I had filmed...

### 1/5 — Ugh!

*2014-11-03, version 2.3.2*

Won't let me update.

### 1/5 — Why

*2014-06-27, version 1.3*

Pressed a wrong button didn't work this app sucked thanks a waste of time and money
