Comments on Background video recorder for Android

★★★★★ SANTHOSH KUMAR · Oct 8, 2026
Please tell me how to authenticate to lifetime subscription in an already purchased case in case of a hand set change.
★★★★★ M C · Oct 20, 2026
Still receiving ads after I paid 50 dollars. Not happy about this. Is it because it has to have internet to check? Should I turn off my data to check? Edit: I will edit this and put it at 5 stars. If I start getting ads again after paying $50 I will take away the 5 stars. Thank you for the app.
★★★★★ Farhat S Sagir · Oct 25, 2026
This app is very useful but timer for videos only 5 minutes if time increase upto 10 to 15 minutes
★★★★☆ abi V · Oct 16, 2026
Would it be possible that the videos recorded could be accessed only through this app and not by video player apps.Also, it would be great if the widget is smaller.
★★★★★ Kevin Larson · Nov 2, 2026
I'd give it 4 and a 1/2 stars But it doesn't do that, it's not perfect. But it's very good, and I appreciate it. And it's helped me a few times. And it's definitely helped me feel more comfortable knowing I have some security measure & or peace of mind, if someone says something different, which most tend to always do.
★★★★★ POYA ZAR007 · Nov 2, 2026
Perfect cam for some day u nid when u phon is off
★☆☆☆☆ Frank McCormack · Oct 24, 2026
Tried to install this and try it out, the ads are so badly implemented that I couldn't try it without fighting through multiple ads. This was an app I would have paid for, but my experience was terrible. I checked the reviews and see that Lifetime subs aren't being honored. This developer is hobbling him/herself with their shortsightedness. I've thought about it a bit more, and it's worse than described above.
★☆☆☆☆ Gamer No0ob · Oct 14, 2026
I just purchased VIP and was hoping to keep recording but the picture stopped after 5 minutes, and I didn't get any video recorded feels like wasted my money
★☆☆☆☆ CROOKED ENGINEER · Oct 19, 2026
I can't lie it's good, but I paid, and I still get stuck on adds for some reason never happened before when I bought the app the ads went away but now they'repack for some reason. I'm unhappy and confused. That and the fact that there's an annoying echo whenever I screen record. Those are the only reasons why this is getting 1 star from me.
★☆☆☆☆ Mr. Condoluci · Oct 22, 2026
SocI am constantly harassed to leave a review, and it seems like the app all of a sudden doesn't remember I pay for it when I click no I don't want to leave a review, so now you can have 1 star.
