Recordings do not play in-app

Recordings do not play when they are viewed from inside the application, and the recordings are not visible in the Apple “Photos” app.

Seems as though basic functionality is lacking.
I am running iOS version 26.1 on an iPhone 12 Pro Max.

Maybe it’s a compatibility issue.

Video armor

I just got this yesterday tried it to today found out you can’t close the app if you do it shrink the video to use your phone to do anything else if you do it stop the video from recording

Money back requested.

I want my money back. Can’t add recording sounds, no time stamp on recordings. App freezes when you try to play back video from app so you have to download it and there’s no time stamps. You can’t lock your phone while it’s recording either. It stops the video. I can do this with my regular camera…

Does NOT work.

It won’t play back recorded videos.

Still understanding it

So I have paid for the app and put in my preferences in settings but when I test record it my video don’t play it’s just a picture I believe

Don’t bother

Can’t replay videos, the app just locks up. Also, you can’t record with the screen locked. Pretty useless, and a waste of $2.99. Thanks for nothing.

It’s ok

The app works great, but the real problem is when you try to playback your videos and it just freezes up the app. You have to save the video to your camera roll and then you have no time or date stamp on it which makes it pointless for evidence. This issues needs to be fixed asap if you want your app to be used by professionals.

Not a winner

This app is not very intuitive at all.
Makes an unnecessary and VERY loud “Squawk” noise when you stop recording, which gives away its presence if you’re trying record without the other party noticing it.
I will use this again!

Not worth it. Don’t waste your money.

This app does not work as promised. Good idea but doesn’t work. It shows a white screen when you try and watch a video while on the app. Don’t waste your money.

Rubbish

Don’t waste your money. It does not work — won’t play back from the app. Absolute con. Irritating waste of £3

Recorded videos white screen

So many problems with this app. First, all videos I recorded have a white screen. When I try to delete, it asks for a pin or it won’t delete. I don’t know the pin. If I selected one, I don’t remember , and there is no option to recover it. There is no option to not save a video, you have to save them all, and I have lots of accidental ones that recorded while I was navigating the app. There is NO support for this app that I could find. I’m being stalked, and I really needed this app to work. Such a waste of time and effort.

Doesn’t always work!

I loved this app until I opened it one day and it didn’t work and was acting fluky so I deleted it because words can’t describe how important it is an App like this works every single time; a persons life and or future could depend on it!
Stick to your iPhones built in camera. Not worth the risk of it not working when you need it. Otherwise, PERFECT IDEA. Work the bugs out and it’ll be amazing and invaluable!

Love the app, but . . .

The screen needs to blacken while recording. Also, add other sites to save the video to like Drop Box.

Almost perfect

I absolutely love the app, I just have a few suggestions:

It needs to be able to run in the background while you use other apps. Currently, if you open another app (such as to look up a statute or crimes code) it stops recording.

Phone calls should have the option to be disabled while video is recording. If a call comes through while recording, it stops the recording.

Needs a "discard" button on the record screen. If you have the app set up to start recording upon open (which is the most useful method for emergency situations), then you are forced to create a recording every time you open the app - even when you are opening the app later in order to review and/or export video. You end up with a bunch of 2 second recordings that you have to delete.

I hope some of these adjustments can be made - this app is almost perfect, and I think these changes would get it there!

Blackscreen

Please add a toggle to turn off screen while recording

Really good app

I'm a security guard and this app comes in handy. I'm liking it so far. Hoping for a Apple Watch app to be added soon.

Getting better!

Good update just now, excited for landscape mode since I use mine as a dash came in my patrol car. LOVE the front facing camera for when I have someone in my vehicle with me!

BUT...My last review still stands. (Which is why I'm copying it below) These items, if resolved will make your app one of a kind that most security and LEOs that don't use a normal body/dash cam will end up purchasing. PLEASE consider these changes!

This concept is awesome! The way you can basically make a report out of this is absolutely brilliant. Please add/fix the following:
-Add capabilities to export the whole report to email/SMS/Google Drive/Photos, etc. Being able to export the video to photos is great but defeats the purpose of filling out the report if you can't export the whole thing.
-Add a profile on the app to change colors to dark colors. That way when using at night, it's not so bright in the patrol car.
-If a video is accidentally recorded, besides just a "save info" button please add a delete button so that you don't have to save it then go in and delete. This would help especially if you're using the launch on app opening feature. I may just be opening it to review a report and don't want to save 2 second videos.
Thanks for making this! Please consider these changes as it will make the app THAT MUCH BETTER!

Great so far

I contacted the developer, iOS has a restriction that prevents being able to turn the screen black for low-light situations. I, too, think this would be nice to have been nice. I've been using this app for a while now, and it works as advertised. No issues.

Good - but could be better.

Just wish the screen would "black out" during recording. Would be helpful in low light conditions.

Also, mine does not want to record when I start the app even tho I have it set up that way. I get an error message every time I open it.

Other than that the app works great. Easy to use, log, and organize video.

Please make an update to black the screen and advise what the issue may be for my error message. Thanks.
