Motion Stills Customer Insights

1. The audio output of the video gets lagged πŸ™„.. And the videos i shot are only saved inside the app itself,.. These are the only things that annoy me... Rest everything are just fine.. Get some improvements πŸ€—AR Mode crashes instantly, I don't really get the point of the app as any clip I take is only a few seconds long, don't really need stabilisation for that length of time, any stock camera has stabilisation anyway.

2. Or that the auto mini gifs my camera takes clogs up the video library in the app, which is only viewable in the giant icons that only fit 2 at a time on screen, leaving me scrolling forever to find anything.

3. And please add any option of changing the camera focusing on the screen, also it would be perfect if you added list of video resolutions selection in your app settings.

4. Alternatively, just the ability to take a photo separate to the motion clip but within the same app would prevent having to switch to my phone's own camera app to get some regular photos.

5. When in AR mode it shows it is filming but then as soon as I stop the video absolutely nothinf happens and I can't find the content anywhere.

6. Ugh.This app is so cool with hyperlapses, but it only needs to increase the recording time for the "fast forward" video to be more than one minute.

7. Maybe it used to be good?This is a fantastic app with brilliant stabilization, but I really wish that it had a mode where you can take a video/make a GIF where only part of the video moves.

8. You get higher quality stabilised video and more options (speed, sound on, reverse, number of loops and gif exports).

9. UI and the occasional export bug still needs some work.The app works fine... But i does find sound lagging while recording.

10. However i would love an option to capture still photos from the clips or automatically take a still photo at the same time as the clip.

11. This is abandon-ware and a poor attempt to keep up with the competition.I really like the app so far! It works much better and plays smoother than camera mx liveshot.
