### 1/5 — THIS APP AND ITS CUSTOMER SERVICE ARE A JOKE!!!

*2019-05-30*

Purchased this to compress longer videos. Yet it didn’t work— it changes the original screen view of video. I contacted the customer service via email but they never replied. Not recommending this to any one. Use other apps out there and SAVE YOUR MONEY.

### 1/5 — Awful, do not purchase

*2018-10-19*

The app would not compress my video has it is supposed to do.  I even paid for the upgrade.  I ended up purchasing a free app that worked perfectly.

### 3/5 — Some suggestions to make it PERFECT

*2016-08-22*

I mainly tried this app to use a lower bitrate when recording video, which works well.  The ability to transcode existing video to lower res/bitrate is also a nice feature. However, it's lacking a lot of features that the default Apple camera app has (listed below). 

Please add these features to reach parity with the iOS camera app:
* Digital Image Stabilization
* 1080p 60fps recording
* Open to camera mode by default
* Ability to take photo while recording video
* Digital zoom

New feature to add:
* Ability to pause/resume video recording
