The app is giving me an error telling me that it doesn't support recording. Total garbage. Uninstalled immediately! 😣

I downloaded the app and put it to use immediately. I guess I was just so excited with the quality that it wasn't until a few videos shoots in that I noticed the watermark. No biggie. I purchased the app and was hoping to unlock MANY more features (primarily importing previously recorded videos into the app), however not a whole lot was unlocked. After a few days, I kept getting a message saying my device "didn't support the app". THE FIX TO THAT IS TO UNINSTALL THE APP, AND INSTALL IT AGAIN. It's a bit annoying, and drains a lot of batter, thus cutting shoots short. I still love the app and will continue to support it, I just wish I could: 1) Upload previously recorded videos 2) Upload previously taken photos 3) Have a flash option (My Galaxy Note 4 version doesn't offer flash on this app and at times it's hard to distinguish faces) 4) Use the app continuously without having to INSTALL/UNINSTALL/INSTALL. Also, this may just be an issue with the app I'm about to mention, but when uploading the footage recorded through Retro VHS- Old School Video onto Video Editor by WeVideo Inc. the playback is ALWAYS "slow motion". Sound and actions are distorted when using that app.

After purchasing the app the record video finction stopped working on my Samsung Note 3. Wish they would fix or offer refunds.

Worked fine paid to remove watermarks and it doesn't work anymore. Worst 1.99 ever spent in the app store. Scam.

I like the visual style and the vhs sound effects of this app. Now I can take videos with style. Also, It apparently records sound well.
