User Reviews

Users appreciate that the app allows background video recording with the screen off and supports long recordings up to 2 hours, including audio capture. However, major complaints include frequent intrusive ads disrupting use, failure to save videos properly leading to audio-only files or lost footage, and settings that reset every time the app is closed. Additionally, users report crashes, inability to preview recordings, and no option to choose where videos are stored, all of which affect reliability and user experience negatively.

Pros

Works while using other apps and with the screen off, enabling background recording.
Long recording duration supported, up to 2 hours.
Records both video and background audio effectively.
Simple to use with some users finding it suitable for discreet recording.
Has a secret video folder that keeps recordings separate from general gallery.

Cons

Excessive and intrusive advertisements that interfere with app usage and settings.
Videos sometimes fail to save correctly, resulting in audio-only files or missing footage.
Settings reset to default every time the app closes, causing inconvenience.
App crashes or bugs when trying to change settings or after updates.
No preview option before recording and lack of control over storage location for recordings.

One advertisement every one click on the screen even in settings, you can't configure the app cause every option you select will launch an advertisement.

Good app because it works while using others apps and screen off. I wanted to remove the ads though but whenever I do, it just redirect me to your pub: page. I don't see anything to remove the ads.
