★★★★★Frank A.· Jul 9, 2025
So far the best screen / video recorder I have ever tried ! Thanks to BVR team and their dedication.
★★★★☆Josh Lambrou· Mar 17, 2026
I keep setting a time to record, and it keeps saying tomorrow and it's not recording
★★★★☆Karan D. Gupta· Sep 18, 2025
I would say that sometimes keeping thing simple is also good the app have many functions but things can become simple and the disguise icons are worst change it mans simplify the settings in app that will also decrease the size of this app I use old bvr since 2k16 and recently switched to this due to no update of old one but this app's setting is cluttered please fix the disguise and make it simple if u found my review a genuine problem
★☆☆☆☆Michael “Scooch”· Jun 5, 2025
Doesn't work on my tv it does work on my phone however it is buggy, and it is overly complicated for beginners to use. Also people who are looking for a screen recorder this is a background video recorder for using your phone's as a monitoring camera system
★☆☆☆☆Voodoomojo· Sep 17, 2025
Your instructions are very confusing, you use multiple terms to describe the same device, cameras are called front and back cameras, they're also called camera one and camera 2, they're also called main camera and selfie camera, with so many different names for the same device how am I supposed to know what camera I am setting up. Also what happened to BVR RECORD NOW, as you know it was a real simple hit the button, and it starts recording, apparently it doesn't do that now.
