### 3/5 — Love it but the audio level bar stopped working. Fix and it goes back to 5 stars

*2026-08-12, version 1.11.11*

Writing a review because it doesn’t seem there’s a way to get direct support. I love everything about this app. However, after a recent iOS update, the audio bar at the top that lets you know your audio source is working has stopped working. The only way to know that it’s picking up your audio is to stop the video and do a test. Then trust that it’s working still while you’re recording your content.

### 4/5 — Fehlende Levelmeteranzeige

*2026-06-28*

Leider fehlt seit geraumer Zeit die Pegelanzeige bei Musikaufnahmen. Das sollte doch kein Problem sein und mit einem Update behoben werden. Scheint so als wenn es keinen Support mehr für die App gibt. Das wäre schade

### 4/5 — Audio Levels?

*2026-06-18, version 1.11.11*

For some reason app is not showing audio levels from iPhone mic

### 4/5 — Great for 2 years, now audio level problem

*2026-05-31, version 1.11.11*

Love the options that go far beyond the iOS camera app controls. But for weeks the audio level meter has been broken. I lost video because of it thinking I had an audio problem. As others have stated, the audio is recording but you have no idea if it’s too quiet or too loud. Fortunately I record from the same set up week to week so as long as no one messes with the input levels things are fine.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-05-20, version 1.11.11*

This is an incredible app. I can’t believe they have it out to the public.

### 3/5 — オンディオインジゲーターの不具合

*2026-05-18*

日頃から大変お世話になっており、iPhoneのカメラ機能を使うことがめっきりなくなりました。
ただ、最近になり、マイクの音声が拾えてるか確認するメーターが突如動かなくなり、大変困っています。
至急改善お願いします。
治れば⭐︎5です

### 2/5 — Still has no screen mirroring and overheating your phone

*2026-04-20, version 1.11.11*

I’m tired of this app and moving forward to another one since they don’t solve their problems…

### 4/5 — Good app

*2026-04-18, version 1.11.11*

This was great except for the fact that you can’t pause and unpause to switch scenes but otherwise it’s a great camera app

### 4/5 — I love you ….BUT!!!!!

*2026-04-12, version v1.11.10*

My old review since 2017 was “You guys are Flawless”.  

I love you, BUT!!! Since iOS 26.4 the sound meter on the app does not show sound. In fact is this message “Audio Input Volume Low (-120db)”. Sound is still recorded, it just doesn’t display on the screen.  This is happening in my iPhone and iPad. 



Old review below:
This app never fails me. Need using it forever and works flawlessly with my Razer Mini Seiren Mic.

### 2/5 — 改善

*2026-04-07*

iPhone 17Pro MAXを使ってます。突然、音声入力の音量：低 （-120db）と出るようになり、iPhoneマイク、Bluetoothマイクが全然ダメになりましま。早急の改善お願い。

### 5/5 — I didn’t use the app yet I will update my reveal I heard there is a auto lock and if you turn your p

*2026-02-27, version v1.11.10*

If you turn your phone, it says stay leveled

That means I’m gonna go look

### 5/5 — The best choice for me

*2026-01-26, version v1.11.10*

I tried every video recording app and this one meets all my requirements.

### 1/5 — 骗钱

*2026-08-09, version 1.11.11*

之前已经付过了又要我重复付钱

### 1/5 — Was 5 stars now 1

*2026-07-30, version 1.11.11*

Used to be the best. Now I record and when I watch it back, it’s deleted the first part of the video. Totally random and disappointing. I used this app for years, recommended to dozens of people who bought, now I can’t trust it. I wish support was available to fix this. Get it fixed and you’d have 5 stars, but currently… this is a major bug.

### 1/5 — iPhone 17 Air

*2026-07-19, version 1.11.11*

I generally love this love, but since I got the new 17 air my microphone will not work on the phone or the Bluetooth that i had before.

### 1/5 — Audio meter

*2026-06-19, version 1.11.11*

PLEASE fix the VU meter in this version! It is broken on latest iOS and iPhone 17 Pro Max. I am unable to tell whether or not audio is working and it has forced me to re-shoot several clips!

### 1/5 — Watermark

*2026-06-18, version 1.11.11*

I deleted app and re-loaded to try to fix a glitch. Made me pay $2.99 to ‘remove watermark’. When I tried to ‘restore’ it said there was ‘no previous purchase’.  BS. I paid for the app now they extort $2.99

### 1/5 — No audio meters

*2026-06-06, version 1.11.11*

The audio level meters no longer work after latest iPad iOS update.

### 1/5 — Show Level Meter do not working

*2026-04-18, version 1.11.11*

Tried many times but totally not working, not sure just my issue?

### 1/5 — Не работает!

*2025-11-14, version v1.11.10*

При съемки появился какой то посторонний звук,когда просматриваешь видео , этот звук сильно слышно. Удалила приложение , а после установки приложение перестало работать!!!  Вылетает при входе и пишет какую то ошибку. 👎🏻

### 1/5 — What happened??

*2025-10-08, version v1.11.10*

Randomly thought about this app and decided to download it again. It’s been years and a couple of phones since I used it so I was excited to restore my purchase and try it out on this newer iPhone. I’m so disappointed! Not only does this app not live up to my memory of it, it’s now somehow worse than the native iPhone camera! 

Exposure lock is just not working anymore. I’d rather my exposure be blown out like with a real camera than have a sudden adjustment be made out of nowhere when a bright light comes into frame! That’s almost entirely what made me buy this in the first place years ago. 

The focus feature has a scale but this does not change your video’s depth of field. Instead, it adjusts *what* is in focus (even if you have already locked a subject in focus!) What’s the point of locking if the app doesn’t respect the lock?

Even stranger, after saving your video, it has a lower, more pixelated quality with LOTS of banding in dark conditions. This does not happen in the native camera app so I don’t know why it would ever happen with a paid one. I’ll play with the settings and update this if anything changes but I don’t think this is a settings problem. 

All I know is that next time I have something important to film, I won’t be reaching to open this app, and that’s sad because I really loved it years ago. It was simple and reliable. 

What happened? Why is it worse now than it was on my iPhone 7?

### 1/5 — Poor app

*2025-10-08, version v1.11.10*

This app fails to work correctly and there is no support to contact

### 5/5 — Amazing Packed-In Features

*2026-09-06, version 1.11.11*

I’m very happy with my purchase. You get a lot for the money.

### 5/5 — Just one audio bug

*2026-07-23, version 1.11.11*

The bar graph for checking the audio level seemed to stop working just after the latest iOS update. I’m not completely sure but this is not the first time that things have gone haywire with audio after an iOS update.
