ShowTime - Video Recorder for iPhone 2G & 3G App Reviews

Thought it worked good for a phone that wasnt made to do video. Yeah it is a bit choppy, and sometimes the sound is out of sink, but if you want good video, get a phone that was designed for video.

U have to compress before email Makes video little choppy but overall pretty good

This thing does not let me delete the first video I shot. Also it does not save videos at all; you cant even see them after you record them which means it doesnt work. It CRASHES a lot to. Dont buy this app or youll regret it.

I Deleted the program almost immediately. Too slow and low volume pick-up. Sorry

1st posting: Video format is not in JPEG as listed and deleted videos keep re-appearing instead of the new videos recorded. How do I get a refund? 2nd posting: I decided to try it again, found out you have to compress first to permanently delete them, but still no luck with JPEG... What about that refund? 3rd posting: I am surprised at how fast customer service addressed my concerns, update fixed the delete issue. Playback on the receiving iPhone is still not posible in avi format VS jpeg format, but for $0.99 it will do.

Ive successfully emailed ONE video, of about 10 that Ive made with this app. They all look good, and the one Ive managed to email off my iPhone looks pretty decent on my iMac, but attempting to email any video larger than about 30 seconds (or 10MB compressed) crashes the app in one of two ways: black screen then home screen, or I receive an error message then its stuck forever on the email screen. So to summarize, buy this app if you dont ever want to do ANYTHING with your videos. In fact, save yourself a buck and just open the iPhones built in camera app, watch the world through the viewfinder for a minute, then pretend you were making a video and you just cant get it off the phone. Same thing really.

Good app, but you should b able to shoot and or view the video in landscape mode/ presentation.

The app is well built but here are some cons. 1. It does not compress into jpeg format. It compresses into avi, which isnt compatible with mac; quicktime. 2. It is unable to play the video on another iphone. I tryed to send a vid to my father, but the video wouldnt open, it only allowed a save image feature which in this case wasnt handy. 3. Small screen resolution. It cuts off the top and bottom to a very large point, where you could be missing a lot. Over all, great capture tool, but it is like Cycorder, unable to do ANYTHING with the vids you record.

This application works well. But compress is not working. When ever I try to compress, the app is crashing. Also need more flexibility. I am not sure how to use zoom feature.

I do have to say that this has the best video capture frame rate of the 4 other video apps I have tried for 3G and 2G iPhones . The abillity to upload via wifi or load it to camera roll is the only thing keeping it from a 5 star . The ability for zoom is a great feature and Im looking forward to other updates .

this video recording app is prob. the best out there i tell you if u have the 2g iphone this app is probably the best video recording app, really!...buy this app its better than any other app that says that they have the best video recording app..but they dont seriously...! this is the best app for the iphone 2g...highly recommended

Keeps crashing :-/

Not much good. Jerky video playback. Crashes. If you were to j**lbr**k your iPhone you could get Cycorder for free and youd find its much better than this. Novelty item but not much more.

Im pretty happy with this version on a 3G and with the fact that the developer keeps regularly updating and improving the application. There is no getting around the limitations of video on the 3G, but I can record them and transfer to the macbook via wifi, so no complaints.

I love that this app shoots in wide 16:9.. This is the only 3G app I have found that does the 16:9.. BUT why did you choose the .avi format? Thats lame.. When I shoot the video on my iPhone then email to someone with an iPhone, they cant watch it on their iPhone! .. because of the .avi .. all the other apps save as .mov and play back on an iPhone ... Its lame that the video i shoot on an iPhone app doesnt play back on an iPhone.

It doesnt have the highest performance but overall I think it works good

The only thing I would like to see on the app is maybeexport to the camera roll cause is you make the video to big you cant email it so it is stuck on the phone.. What if you want to put it on your computer you cant Thanks Wolf

Quality is low, audio cuts in and out, and sharing is slow. Not worth 99 cents, buy another video recording application.

This app is crap, quality is so bad that u are basically watching mooving pictures

App seems good but still has some bugs. Having trouble compressing videos and WebDAV webserver connect doesnt seem to work anymore. Cant figure our how to get my movies off phone....
