My phone has plenty of space for recording. Needs in my opinion, more backgrounds and blending screen camouflage. ### 2/5 — Your update made it worse *2026-03-19, version 7.8.1* Now you can't adjust the size of the window screen on the menu and the interface looks fake and not legit anymore. When you try to scroll up it doesn't work. You guys really sold out. The update seems more restrictive than an actual improvement ### 4/5 — Interesting *2026-01-30, version 7.7.5* Recording slow motion ok the app doesn’t look as good/quality as when I do it with the iPhone 16 pro max. Web page as background only allows to use Wikipedia as a background not other links/websites…other than that it does its job. ### 2/5 — New change *2025-10-10, version 7.7.5* Please get rid of green dot it defeats the whole purpose of the app ### 2/5 — On iPhone 16 not working anymore *2025-09-27, version 7.7.5* I moved from iPhone 14 to iPhone 16. I was using the functionality that reveals the hidden gallery after pressing the gallery screen for few seconds. On the new phone the hidden gallery never open. I cannot even access the app settings so the app became useless ### 3/5 — Buggy *2025-07-31* Pressing volume down to record once I try to press it again to stop recording, it would sometimes stop and then record again immediately somehow. Is there a multiple selections to delete in the photo/video viewing? I have tried selecting the image by holding down the picture but all it does is prompt save. No there isn’t anything at the top right saying to select more during gallery viewing to delete them. No option to do multiple selection during gallery listing cause that’s for importing photos, not to delete. That is multiple selection for importing photos from iPhone photos to gallery listing **Developer response:** Volume buttons: there are limitation, please tap on those buttons one by one. Accidentally tap/hold may cause those buttons not to be working properly. Gallery deletion: multiple selection is only available in Gallery List (make sure "App Folder Start as Grid View" option is turned off), then in the list Select button is at the top right. In gallery viewer, you can only delete each photo/video. ### 3/5 — Buggy *2025-07-15* Idk if it’s just me but from the instructions it said that volume up is to take a picture but when I do that it records instead and the “use both volume buttons for record actions only” option isn’t on. Also pressing volume down to record once I try to press it again to stop recording, it would sometimes stop and then record again somehow. I would also suggest to add a delete all button or something for the trash section gallery instead of deleting it 1 by 1 Edit: after reading dev respond, I still don’t understand cause I don’t have this option turned on “use both volume buttons for record actions only” but my bottom volume button is for record so my top volume button should be for taking pictures since that is shown in the “How to use” but it isn’t doing that. Have you tried it out yet? As for the gallery I have tried selecting the image by holding down the picture but all it does is prompt save so not sure where you can select multiple pictures to delete them. **Developer response:** - “use both volume buttons for record actions only” mean you can either press up or down button for recording. Sorry for the inconvenience. - To delete multiple items, you need to do multiple selection in the Gallery list, not during the Gallery viewing. ### 3/5 — Buggy *2025-07-09* Idk if it’s just me but from the instructions it said that volume up is to take a picture but when I do that it records instead and the “use both volume buttons for record actions only” option isn’t on.

The preview window cannot be set to the minimum size. It can only be reduced to 50%, while the iPhone SE can set it to the minimum. Can this be fixed? ### 5/5 — Lol why is this bothering me in the middle of a recording? *2025-06-18, version 7.7.5* Like go away ### 3/5 — Apps keeps video recording on startup .Also volume button press to record is not working *2025-05-30, version 7.7.5* Apps keeps video recording on startup even disabled in setting. Also volume button press to record is not working when chosen in setting too. Used to be working fine so please could you look into those please ### 4/5 — Need way to clear cache *2025-05-29, version 7.7.5* App size was 17gb even after deleting everything. Needed to reinstall the app to free up space. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Does not work *2026-06-05, version 7.8.2* As soon as I open the app all I see is an image and nowhere to go for settings. I hear the shutter noise repeating but no photo captured. ### 1/5 — IPhone 17 series cannot be use *2025-12-21, version 7.7.5* Rubbish wasting money ### 1/5 — Need help *2025-09-16, version 7.7.5* Was a great app for me until I chose a setting that opens the app in no visibility mode and now it’s just a black screen. I can’t even open my gallery or take videos ### 1/5 — No way to turn off green light and buggy *2025-09-01, version 7.7.5* Buggy volume start/stop controls, buggy background lock and no way to turn off green light as app claims. Waste of money. ### 1/5 — Video quality is bad *2025-08-11, version 7.7.5* I’m using this on iPhone Pro version 14. The video qualities is actually much worse than the native iPhone camera app. I’m not able to record in portrait mode at 2160p. I’m only able to record it. I am only able to record at 1080 P and even at 10 ADP the quality it’s actually much much worse compared to iPhone camera app. ### 1/5 — 騙されないように *2025-08-10* 普通にシャッター音なります。 **Developer response:** 開発者のメールアドレスからご連絡ください。より早く返信し、このアプリに関するヒントをお送りします。 ### 1/5 — Can’t Use Other Apps While Recording *2025-06-12* Not worth it, Candid does the trick for free. ### 1/5 — Garbage *2025-04-14, version 7.7.2* waste of money ### 1/5 — Kann nichts mehr löschen *2025-04-12* Es gibt nur noch den „done“ button in der gallerie. Kann nur auf play drücken und nix löschen **Developer response:** GOOGLE TRANSLATE: Die Schaltfläche „Löschen“ befindet sich ganz rechts in der unteren Symbolleiste. Sie können jedoch nur Dateien löschen, die im "App Folder" gespeichert sind. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2025-02-26, version 7.7.2* Won’t take photos, not showing gallery. Difficult to navigate ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — PLEASE Help *2026-08-19, version 7.8.2* I got a 17 pro max, loaded it up from the cloud but in my app i used to tap and hd under the displayed albums and now it doesn’t work. Also the settings cog that would be in the upper corner in the ‘i’ screen isnt there. ### 5/5 — (resolved)Can’t adjust preview size *2026-03-23, version 7.8.2* Thx for quickly action ☺️ ### 5/5 — Video *2025-12-26, version 7.7.5* The app is great! Any possible way to up the resolution for the video ? Thanks ### 5/5 — Longtime user *2025-11-21, version 7.7.5* I use SP for candid street photography, still images with a black screen. Works great. ### 5/5 — Ottima applicazione con molte funzionalità *2025-11-06, version 7.7.5* Una delle poche app che permette di registrare video e scattare foto in modalità "anonima" 😉 Manca solo la possibilità di mettere in pausa la registrazione, adesso si può solo fermare. ### 5/5 — Need an update for iphone 17 *2025-10-19, version 7.7.5* Nice app, but iphone 17 pro recently supports 4K 120fps and please update for that, thanks. ### 5/5 — Works great *2025-10-16, version 7.7.5* Better than any other app out there and it gives you more options like cutting the videos in sections. ### 5/5 — Buggy *2025-10-12, version 7.7.5* Edit: thanks for the clarification and I was wondering if it possible you can add another “capture photo” icon on the screen or allow us to do that from a settings or something Pressing volume down to record once I try to press it again to stop recording, it would sometimes stop and then record again immediately somehow.
