I exported to save a beautiful memorial and exported it and it is not in any of my folders. I’m quiet savvy with this type of stuff. But would love to know if they have any type of recovery system. This video I exported and is now lost.. is so special. Had I known it would be lost, I would have screen recorded it. Any help, please. ### 4/5 — Could be better *2026-02-07, version 1.5.29* I got this app and I was suuuuupppeerrrrrrrr excited for it but it says I CAN ONLY USE IT FOR 6 FREAKING SECONDS LIKE BRO🥲 WHY DO YALL DO THIS?

FRICK YALL ### 3/5 — Great features but too low resolution. *2025-07-20* I cancelled my subscription because of the low quality of the exported film. 135Mo input, 33Mo output this was too low for a 1080 movie. Sad because the effects are stunning. So whoever doesn’t care about the quality of the export (Messenger or WhatsApp) will be pleased with this app. ### 4/5 — loved it until…. *2025-07-09, version 1.5.29* Loved using the app and putting videos already filmed into it to give it that “vintage” feel until I see they decided to upgrade and now you have to pay.. huge disappointment to say the least ### 5/5 — Mr Zakaria Dhuubow *2025-06-10, version 1.5.29* Video in 2003 ## Frequently asked questions about Vintage Film Camera ### What does Vintage Film Camera do?
