Its not working properly. Already working good but updation of system software it stopped working while pressing volume switch, not starts recording. Pls update your app according to new software compatibility otherwise this app is useless. It was good working in A30 samsung, but after update of software not recording while using volume switch and also not working in mt M31 samsung.

I give you 4 stars for the brilliant background recording with hidden device. More things need to improve on functions and options. Easier to use with better interfaces and themes would be nice to operate.

Great app, would appreciate if there was an option to break the recording in small 5 min chunks while recording, like a dashboard cam would do. This would allow my files to sync to cloud while still recording. (using folder sync for automatic uploads) Also an auto-disable timer would be nice, in case recording is started unintentionally.
