Reviews for 8mm Vintage Camera

The BEST and ACCURATE
I don’t know, I don’t see any negatives here, the app is great. It really does look like 8mm film. There’s a new digital 8mm film camera being sold today (can’t remember what it’s called), it doesn’t compare to this at all. This is great. 10/10

My reviews keep getting deleted
I’ve had this app since the day it was released. It was honestly one of the best vintage video app apps. The UI was amazing. I paid for the app. I paid for three in app purchases. I contacted the company at least six or seven times when they abandoned it for a good four years. Never received a reply. I beta test a lot of apps so I don’t just immediately leave a bad review – I give the developer a chance to answer my questions or tell me what they are planning before I leave a review. It went through a lot of really buggy incarnations and like I said, the developer never got back with me. I mean, it takes three minutes to write an email. Then they finally updated it and turned it to poo. The UI was changed and not nearly as interesting as the original. You have to now pay a monthly fee if you want to use all of the features. Which they should have grandfathered in the people who paid for the app or offered an in app purchase instead of charging a monthly fee. So, an app that was one of my staples for many years is now an app that I rarely use. I contacted the company again, but they never respond. I constantly leave reviews and they magically disappear. Also, I don’t understand how they can charge you for this app and then one you to pay a subscription fee. So, I’m sure there are a lot of people that have been downloading this app lately only to find out that you’ve got to subscribe to it if you want to use all the features. Oh well, some developers are just greedy and this developer happens to be one of them. So, call me dramatic or complain that this review is far too long. It just stinks when you have access to a beautifully designed app, one that actually does what it says. It’s going to do, you pay for it, you pay extra for in app purchases, then they change it up, and charge you more. 10 years ago I would’ve said by this app and don’t look back. Now in good conscience, I can’t tell anyone to buy this app.
