## What is Video Buffer Action Camera?

Record the action that happened before the shutter! Save your device storage and skip the tedious post-game editing! Never miss a moment again! 4K video quality and Apple Watch as a remote!

We're all used to pressing the record button and capturing life as it happens. But what if you could record things that already happened, pressing the button to catch the last few seconds? That's what makes Video Buffer so unique — you set the buffer time and hit the record when something interesting happens. You haven't missed a thing and saved your time and device storage!

Video Buffer can be vital in all kinds of ways: 
Sports coaches and parents can use the app to record in-game highlight moments as they happen.

Physical Education teachers could use buffered video footage to analyze performance and settle disputes between players.

Sports officials and referees can review their decisions using a Buffer Camera as a video assistant. 

Drivers can use Video Buffer as a Dashcam, recording unexpected events on the road without overloading device memory storage.

Skateboarders can capture only good lands and save time scrolling through many similar frames on the camera roll.

Parents can catch their kids playing, making it easy to record that funny interaction that might otherwise be lost.

Nature lovers can save time and storage while filming astonishing lightning flashes or waiting for the animal to appear or strike a funny pose.

Video Buffer features include:

- buffered video recording that ensures you'll never miss a moment
- long buffer time, up to 100 seconds
- 3 recording buttons, each with adjustable buffer time 
- DualCam Mode - record front and back camera footage simultaneously 
- option to capture only the buffer - the recording will end & save automatically
- 4K video quality
- custom video resolution and FPS (30-240)
- portrait or landscape orientation
- saving to iCloud or device folders with a custom prefix for the filenames
- Apple Watch support — a remote on your wrist to make it easier than ever to hit that record button
- Slow-motion support  - gives sports and fitness trainers the best look at swing, ball movement, or technique. Note: Works only with some back cameras - set 240 FPS in Settings.

If you've ever missed something because you couldn't hit a record in time, Video Buffer is the answer!

### 2/5 — 刚刚官方发售的防脱

*2026-08-20*

有风格阿瑟人官方公告大幅度的v发vv发v官方v个非常差！

### 1/5 — This sucks

*2026-08-12*

This sucks its all a money grab

### 5/5 — Best Volleyball Parent App

*2026-05-17*

This captures all the best moments while I can still enjoy watching the game.  She can watch her highlights on the way home.  I have already passed this app on to over 10 other parents. Must have if you are recording your kids.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the five-star rating! We appreciate your support. Good luck on the volleyball court!

### 3/5 — Could be good, but

*2026-04-18*

4 seconds is WAY too short for the maximum free length. I would say 10 seconds would be a good amount. and as for the paid version, having a subscription is just unnecessary. I would not pay a weekly subscription of 6 euros. I would much rather just pay once for a lifetime access to all settings than a subscription.
So in short, could be a good app, but the free version is just too limited and the paid version is just not worth buying.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your honest review. I understand your concerns about the subscription model, but at this time, it's the only payment option that works for us as an indie developer. We appreciate your understanding.

### 3/5 — Price is too much.

*2026-01-20*

£29.99 every year is just far too much for most. You’re losing customers because we can’t afford it when similar apps (eg Dideye) do the same for waaaay less than this. Shame because yours is a great app.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your honest feedback. We’re pleased to hear that you think the app is great; it truly means a lot to us. 
Video Buffer is a niche app built for a specific use case, and we continuously improve it based on user feedback. Since we operate on a subscription-only pricing model, the cost reflects the expenses associated with ongoing development, maintenance, and support. We understand that the annual price may still seem high, but we believe the value you'll receive makes it worthwhile. We appreciate your support!

### 5/5 — This is my go to driver training app!

*2025-11-27*

Game changer for driver training.
I use this app to capture both forward facing and in cab video so it looks just like a DriveCam event. The rolling buffer means I never miss a moment, wide turns, late signals, mirror misses, missed hazards, anything.

It’s perfect for quick post trip coaching and has noticeably improved how fast new drivers pick up safe habits. Simple setup, huge impact.

If you train drivers, get this app.

**Developer response:** Thank you very much for your detailed 5 star review!!!

### 1/5 — doesnt work

*2025-11-21*

the app freezes when saving clips

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. I apologize for the inconvenience. Could you please provide more details about your issue using the “Contact Us” link in the Settings? Does the freezing occur every time, or only with a specific setup (such as save destination, frame rate, camera, buffer time, etc.)? The more information we have, the better we can assist you. Thank you!

### 3/5 — Great Potential

*2025-09-17, version 3.3*

The idea is really good, but there are some opportunities to attend: 1. The applewatch feature doesn’t work consistently (sometimes it get stucked and other times it doesn’t appear as main page when viewing watch). 2. Sometimes the audio is delayed from the video. 3. It would be nice yo have multiple buttons on applewatch so one can decide to click 10s, 20s, 30s or 1min for example.

### 1/5 — Expensive subscription for what?

*2025-09-05*

First feature I tried to use told me I need to sign up for a subscription to use it. $5 a WEEK!!!  why?!  You’re not storing my videos or providing any cloud type services. Why should I pay you weekly for this?  Bye Felicia!

**Developer response:** Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

### 4/5 — 2 problems encountered

*2025-07-18, version 3.3*

I took the risk with this app because I thought I found the perfect one to record my tennis matches highlights whilst using the apple watch, but the apple watch app freezes constantly con “finished screen” and I have to restart it, and some clips have the audio with offset, if those issues get fixed this app would be a 5 stars for sure, and worth the price
