## Description

Small Size Video Recorder is a lightweight Chrome extension that lets you capture videos with selectable resolution and bitrate. It supports 1080p to 360p as well as multiple bitrate options, and shows the maximum recordable duration for each setting.

Highlights include continuous autofocus, stabilization, pinch-to-zoom, and portrait or landscape recording. You can tag location, save videos to camera roll or a chosen album, and easily share or favorite clips. The app follows an in-app purchase model: the free version limits recordings to 20 seconds, while the paid version removes this cap; new users can test longer durations a couple of times.

## Review summary

The app is valued for saving storage and offering flexible resolutions with a simple interface, plus pause functionality and useful duration estimates. However, repeated issues include nonworking transfer/sharing options, a limited feature set lacking advanced controls (frame rates, front camera support), stability problems (crashes and unsaved videos), problematic upgrade flows, and intrusive rating prompts. Overall it’s strong for storage-conscious recording but hampered by maintenance and feature gaps.

### Pros

- Saves storage by using lower resolutions/bitrates while maintaining usable quality
- Offers flexible resolution and bitrate options (e.g., various resolutions including 720p)
- Pause/resume recording feature improves workflow
- Easy/simple to use interface
- Shows estimated recording duration based on chosen resolution and available storage

### Cons

- Transfers/sharing/export features (Dropbox, Drive, Save to Files, AirDrop) do not work
- Limited feature set: only resolution setting; lacks frame rate options (60fps, 4K) and front-camera support; not clearly better than the built-in camera app
- Crashes and videos not being saved
- Upgrades/purchases sometimes do not unlock or work as expected
- Intrusive rating prompts disrupt the recording session
