However since a few months ago, no footage recorded on this app records accompanying audio (yes I have microphone enabled). I’ve had this app forever and I remember when it did record sound no issue. I’m not super familiar with how app coding works but I’m fairly certain this is a glitch, a very detrimental one at that. I don’t know if there’s app developers read or see reviews but please investigate the sound issue here! I love this app and just wish it worked again. ### 4/5 — Audio? *2026-08-13, version 1.983* This would be good if i could hear the audio in the videos i make, BUT, overall its a good one. ### 4/5 — No audio *2026-08-06, version 1.983* The app is very good but sadly the audio doesn’t work ### 4/5 — One problem is… *2026-08-05, version 1.983* It can’t pick up audio ### 4/5 — Best VHS app ever *2026-06-10, version 1.983* Probably more accurate than NTSC-RS!!! ### 2/5 — audio issue *2026-05-27, version 1.983* i like the vibe and overall look of the app (the effect and the timestamps) but why is it so expensive just to give the demo watermark removed… also the audio doesn’t work at all and i don’t know if it’s just an internal issue or if i have to pay for audio. ### 4/5 — Nice *2026-05-27, version 1.983* Good, but sadly audio doesn’t work. Camera is so good though! Most authentic I’ve seen but yeah there’s no sound sadly. ### 3/5 — Great filter, really bad UI *2026-04-12, version 1.983* Importing videos is weird and it doesn’t transition between portrait and horizontal well ### 3/5 — No audio. *2026-04-06, version 1.983* When I make videos, they come out without audio. :( ### 5/5 — No audio, please fix *2026-03-14, version 1.983* I can’t hear anything in my videos ### 5/5 — please!!! *2026-03-12* Please make a permanently owned version. If it's reasonable, I'll buy it and spread a lot of rumors ### 5/5 — Please Read This, Thank You :) *2026-03-11, version 1.983* This app is pretty good for the demo version but there’s this one thing that’s kinda bothering me, whenever the video is saved on my photo gallery and I look back at the video, there’s no audio or sound coming out of the video, I LOVE THE DETAIL OF THIS APP!!!!! :) but it’s just only the audio issue that’s bothering me, Please fix this problem or issue, Thank you very much!!! :) ### 5/5 — I love it but it has one issue I don't like (EDIT) it's fixed *2026-03-07, version 1.983* When I got this app I record videos of me looking out the window and trips we went but then the audio didn't work. I redownload the app (I’m using a IPhone 14) And it still won’t works. I went to settings in my phone then allow microphone but still not work. I don’t know if it supposed to be like that so yea (EDIT) Now the mic is fix i just deleted and downloaded again and now it works it just got fixed randomly ### 3/5 — Good but.. *2026-03-07, version 1.983* Good but whenever i record it does not have audio no matter if i turn on microphone settings or not, it isn’t my iPhone because the microphone works fine on the IOS camera app and the Voice Memos app. ### 5/5 — No audio bug *2026-03-07, version 1.983* I really love this app but recently there’s been a bug where if I record a video and save it to my camera roll it doesn’t play audio and I’ve tried everything and troubleshooting but nothing has worked so far ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Charge a subscription *2026-06-28, version 1.983* I gave this a 1 one star because is insane how I got charged for a subscription I didn’t want it, so on June 22 I got a free three day trial to try it out, I did and everything was fine I cancel no problem until today on June 28 I got charged for a week subscription somehow?? Like what?? How did that happen and also it says my subscription ends in July 1, that dosent count as a week subscription ether way!! You scammers!!! Be careful if you get a free trial here!!!! ### 1/5 — No audio *2026-05-27, version 1.983* After a whole day recording a trip, it turns out none of the video had audio, and yes I did gave permissions to use the microphone to the app ### 1/5 — За 140 мегаящиків *2026-05-15, version 1.983* 🫪 ### 1/5 — Does not let you record long. *2026-04-11, version 1.983* Horrible app with no warning. I recorded a very important video that was 20 mins long. It showed as recording with the time stamp and everything. I go to my camera roll and see that it’s not even there. Couldn’t even have the courtesy of at least cutting the video short. It deleted it all together. ### 1/5 — Not free😡 *2026-04-03, version 1.983* Other vhs apps are better than yours🤬🤬🤬🤬 ### 1/5 — Not working properly *2026-02-23, version 1.983* It’s not letting me take any photos it keeps pausing ### 1/5 — You have to pay *2025-12-17, version 1.983* The app is free to download, but after the tutorial, you have the option to pay for a week or a month subscription! I just wanted an app i can take vintage photos on, and clearly this isn’t it… ### 1/5 — Scam *2025-12-08, version 1.983* I’m not able to pay the subscription cause i don’t have that much Money i only have 120 dollars and also i only got to see the tutorial. ### 1/5 — Muertos de hambre *2025-11-28, version 1.983* Carísimo tener que pagar mensualidad. La compraría sin problema pero mensual? Ni al caso ### 1/5 — Great app just one thing *2025-11-25, version 1.983* Hiiiiiiii so I got this app in July and I was met with a subscription I clicked off and wanted to use the adjuster to make my own filter but BOOM “get pro to use this feature” like BRO😭 please just LET ME. EDIT: it’s fine now but of course the audio stopped working ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — This app is great and and I love it but… *2026-08-22, version 1.983* The app has one thing that I absolutely hate, why is the pro version behind a weekly/monthly pay wall? There should honestly be a one time purchase for the full thing and sure make it more expensive I don’t care but putting an app like this under a $10 a month subscription just isn’t the best way in my opinion. I like this app more than Rarevision pro except for the fact Rarevision is a one time payment. Why can’t this just be a one time payment? Developers if you’re reading this your app is super good and I absolutely love it but please make it a one time payment. Also another suggestion please add pausing when recording. ### 5/5 — Idk *2026-07-24, version 1.983* Amazing app, honestly, but I think you guys should add a function to change the time instead of only the date, that would be awesome, please consider ### 5/5 — Love it but one problem *2026-07-12, version 1.983* I love it but the audio dosent work anymore plz fix it ### 5/5 — This app is great and and I love it but… *2026-06-24, version 1.983* The app has one thing that I absolutely hate, why is the pro version behind a weekly/monthly pay wall? There should honestly be a one time purchase for the full thing and sure make it more expensive I don’t care but putting an app like this under a $10 a month subscription just isn’t the best way in my opinion.

Developers if you’re reading this your app is super good and I absolutely love it but please make it a one time payment. ### 5/5 — Awsome *2026-05-28, version 1.983* There is some other apps that cost money to record but I know this app still use money but this app is the one I’m not mad with ### 5/5 — Great app, one suggestion. *2026-05-27, version 1.983* Overall the app is great, taken many many videos on this emulated VHS app & I have had no issues with it so far. Only one suggestion I would make is give us a yearly billing option to purchase premium. Weekly & Monthly is fine, but it would be much better if we had the option to pay yearly, you’ve made a fair price for the other 2, I’m sure you can figure out something reasonable for yearly. That’s all, thank you. ### 5/5 — Happy movie *2026-05-09, version 1.983* Good! 😏😉 ### 5/5 — Please let me use the video settings without having to pay for it. *2026-04-21, version 1.983* i just want to use the settings, please. i dont wanna pay 4 dollars a week for this please. ### 5/5 — This is the greatest app I’ve ever used nothing can beat it *2026-04-17, version 1.983* Upon discovering this app I have fell head over heels with it my only complaint with this app is that the sound doesn’t work and I cannot get other videos from my gallery to be uploaded onto the app but other than that this app is such a joy to use ### 5/5 — How do I get off the try it for free screen? *2026-03-29, version 1.983* Need some help --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
