### 4/5 — zoom 지원

*2026-01-15*

2배 정도만이라도 줌이지원 되면 더 좋겠습니다.

### 4/5 — Works fine

*2023-11-24*

Will be testing over next few journeys but looks like it will work. If pulled over for speeding it would be good to say it was not me and be able to prove it. May be over kill lets see how it goes.

### 3/5 — versatile with annoying nagware

*2023-03-08*

seems every now and then this app nags you to rate it on the app store when you press record. this means i cannot use it as a professional tool because using video mode i must mark it a False Start when this happens, dismiss the nag, and start the next take.

### 3/5 — good, BUT

*2022-05-19, version 2.21*

App has a lots of things to modify, but its objects looks kinda old and they are still low resolution even when it’s set to max

### 4/5 — Video resolution improvement

*2022-02-18*

Please update video resolution change. 
Now 720p, it should be 1080p at least and zooming function too

**Developer response:** You can now select resolution in the settings, as well as rear/front camera.

### 4/5 — Très Bien

*2021-08-22*

Il manque un altimètre graphique avec la possibilité de d’afficher en pieds ou en mètre.

**Developer response:** Altitude is in [m] for metric units and in [ft] for nautical units, starting with V2.21

### 4/5 — Potential nach oben

*2021-07-05*

Hi,
wäre toll wenn es möglich wäre:
- nur ein foto zu machen
- ein freies textfeld einfügen zu können
- wenn er bei der Location auch die Straße, Ort und so weiter anzeigen lassen könnte
-untere menüleiste zum ausblenden
-auf ios 14 funktioniert die grafische Kompassanzeige nicht, also er zeigt keine Richtung an

### 4/5 — Great app works well on my iphone.

*2021-06-01*

Would like to be able to change altitude to feet instead of metres. UK pilots use feet for altitude not meters.

**Developer response:** We have fixed this in the upcoming V2.21

### 4/5 — 굳

*2021-04-23*

굳

### 4/5 — Please add TimeLapse and location state, city,county

*2021-03-15*

So far Your app is the best of 3 apps I bought. If you can Please add TimeLapse and state, city,county ... it will be super awesome

### 2/5 — 720p????

*2021-03-03*

How can I increase resolution and bitrate??

### 4/5 — Please add feature for both cameras!

*2020-06-19*

If you can update to allow me to flip cameras that would be amazing! I would totally give this app 5 stars gladly then. Doesn’t do me any good to watch myself when ripping. My new mount blocks rear camera so I need to use my front camera and can flip my mount inside out. It’s hard to explain just please add a camera flip option, PLEASE!

### 1/5 — Pas gratuis

*2026-07-13*

On doit obligatoirement acheter pour utiliser.

### 1/5 — Risoluzione

*2025-07-22, version 2.51*

Grafica scarsa nel 2025 non si puo vedere completamente inutile

### 1/5 — C’est payant…

*2025-04-22*

Gratuit à le télécharger mais payant à l’utiliser

### 1/5 — Not working

*2025-04-04, version 2.51*

Not working without subscription

### 1/5 — Paid for lifetime now it’s subscription

*2025-02-20*

I paid for lifetime now it’s asking for a subscription waste of money

### 1/5 — Si pago va a funcionar?

*2024-07-18, version 2.41*

Nunca había sido de pago esta app, te dejaba grabar 3 minutos. Ahora aparece una ventana para que pagues y como no confío en que vaya a funcionar pagando no me sirve

### 1/5 — Don’t just don’t

*2021-08-21*

Waste of time and money. Crashes, freezes, lags, doesn’t save video, poor quality … just horribly written. Paid for pro, cancelled within 30 mins

### 1/5 — 固まる

*2021-06-14*

5分以上撮影して再生すると、カクカクスローモーションになりやがて固まる

### 1/5 — Forcing you to use location services

*2020-02-26*

This app won't work unless you turn on location services. Coders that force things like this are garbage.

### 1/5 — Do not work

*2018-09-12*

Oh my time

**Developer response:** Please get the new V 2.11, which is completely rewritten and has much more intuitive user interface. Thanks for your review !

### 5/5 — Great app

*2025-05-11*

I use this app in conjunction with my iPhone 16 as a dash cam for my motorcycle. It works perfectly very pleased.

### 5/5 — 각종 신고용으로 최고일듯

*2022-04-08*

신고날짜 기록되는 어플로는 제일 좋은듯 합니다 
건의 한다면 줌인 아웃기능이 있었으면 합니다

### 5/5 — Dúvidas !

*2021-08-29*

Ótimo aplicativo, mas quando alterno para outro aplicativo como por exemplo Google Maps, ele fecha a gravação. Como eu faço para o aplicativo confiar gravando em segundo plano.

### 5/5 — Amazing App

*2021-06-28*

This app does just about everything I need for a fraction of the price of action cam. If it could connect to my heart rate monitor in the health app and you could overlay a second image, I would give it six stars. Cheers to the developers and look forward to seeing new features soon.

### 5/5 — 각종 교통위반 신고용으로 좋습니다

*2021-05-01*

최근 스마트국민제보로 신고를 하려면 영상에 시간까지 나와야 처리가 되는걸로 바꼈기 때문에 시간 까지 나오는 앱이 많이 없더군요 이 앱은 초단위까지
나와서 좋습니다 무료버전은 상단에 광고가 있긴 한데 딱히 불편함은 없네요

### 5/5 — help！！

*2021-03-21*

Hi creator of this app,

I am unable to use the pro version of this app on my other phone although I have purchased it on family sharing. 

Thanks
Ryan Xu

### 5/5 — 災害時に使えそう

*2021-02-26*

映像に時刻と位置とを埋め込んで保存できるので、普及すればSNSヘ投稿することで大規模災害時のリアルタイム危機回避情報として威力を発輝できそう。

### 5/5 — tres   bon appli

*2020-10-17*

ras

### 5/5 — Pimp!

*2020-07-31*

Pretty pimp! I wish it traced your route or you could program your route. But for $5, it pretty pimp. Free version seems like it would make me mad.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2019-09-23, version 2.12*

So cool
