### 5/5 — Very Good

*2023-03-17, version 5.0*

I set a timer on my washing machine for 1 hour and then came back after an hour and I saw that it recorded the whole one hour! I figured out that if you want a big number then you should click the scissors and you have to paste your number if it is big. I was very impressed with this app.

### 1/5 — No sound!

*2021-03-25, version 4.2*

I am unable to hear any sound on my recording. Am I missing something??? 👎🏾

### 3/5 — Stopped working

*2018-07-21, version 4.2*

I used to love this app for recording my workouts because it'd allow me time to get in position but now it won't let me select the times so I can't use it at all. It doesn't say I need any updates so I'm confused why it stopped working. Just very frustrated with it now.

### 5/5 — Amazing 😍😍😍

*2017-11-11, version 3.0*

Works completely fine,no problems,couldn't ask for a better timer actually!!! It ticks off all the boxes and fixes all my needs!Would recommend!

### 3/5 — Simple to use

*2017-05-13, version 3.0*

Could do with more options for saving as if the videos don't go to your camera roll and you don't share them they're gone forever, but other than that great app.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work at all!

*2016-08-13, version 3.0*

Nope. Doesn't save videos anywhere.

### 1/5 — no stars...but have to put 1

*2015-05-16, version 3.0*

the worst app I have ever had on a phone will never download anymore of your apps the video didn't even save to my photos do I'll just stick to my timerless camera

### 3/5 — Good, Slightly glitchy

*2015-05-05, version 3.0*

Update: Shooting mode fixed!!! I would like to be able to set video duration times other than multiples of 10

Update: The app now saves to the camera roll but will only let me shoot video in portrait mode. Please fix! I shoot a lot of landscape videos.

Love the concept, but when I try to email a video, it glitches and even if my internet is fine, it ends up in my outbox.

I would like to be able to export directly to my photo library rather than emailing it.

### 5/5 — Excellent!!

*2015-02-17, version 2.0*

Has option to choose quality of video recorded so it is great if you want a 720p quality video to share around on the net, and the trimming ability allows you to show what you really want to".

### 5/5 — Nice Self timer for videos

*2015-02-16, version 2.0*

Really simple to use. Has inbuilt trimming and sharing.
