About Hands Up 4 Justice

This app was created to video and audio record encounters with law enforcement

The best use of the app once pulled over by the police, turn on the front facing camera and start recording.
The best position for this is to place the phone on the dashboard between the windshield and middle of the dashboard with a slight tilt towards the driver's side window By using the front facing camera you can see that the camera is positioned correctly before the screen goes black

Once you begin video recording, you have 10 seconds before the app will go black, but the app is STILL recording. This feature is to protect you from police that might take or destroy your phone

This app uses the GPS feature on your phone and will geotag each video

Please create a Youtube page and login on your phone. This app will automatically save videos every two minutes of recording. It will automatically save to your app, and your device. You can manually upload the videos to Youtube.

Please enter an emergency contact information. Every time a video is uploaded it will send a text message to your contact notifying them a video has been uploaded to Dropbox

This app will work to publicize all peaceful protests and demonstrations across the nation. Please feel free to email us at Handsuptheapp@yahoo.com with upcoming protests and demonstrations

If you are pulled over at night, turn on your overhead light so that encounter with law enforcement can been seen

Please download the Dropbox app and set your device to automatically save pictures and videos to your Dropbox account. Also, we suggest that you share your Dropbox account with your emergency contact so they will have access to the videos you upload

And then your phone is taken by the assailant or officer and gone forever. Screen doesnt go black so they can see you recording. Won't record without location or network. So all this really does is garbage version of the real camera.

Doesn't do what it says because it saves videos to a folder that doesn't auto upload to Dropbox. You can't select a different storage folder either. Rip off!

I agree that it needs to have settings in par with similar apps, ie cloud settings, nexus fix, etc.... I will revisit later to see if updated

N70%
by N####:

Isn't really worth the $0.99. Just a video recorder with a darker, but still on/glowing, screen. Cops can delete the video all the same because NO AUTO UPLOADING!?!?!?. Bad job guys!!

App does not do as much as the description makes it sound, you have to install other apps like dropbox to save your video's, apart from that it's just bits of advice

This app is based on a great idea. However, it keeps sitting itself of at approximately 30 to 55 minutes into recording. It also does not alert my emergency contact as I have it set to do.

1. Auto upload needs to work. 2. Screen needs to lock and cotinue to record. 3. Need to be able to start recording from lock. Do these 3 things and I will pay $9.99 easy.

I absolutely love this app. Its great to have for anybody and I love that it records every 3 minuets!

Charged me money but wouldn't download. Complete ripoff

D70%
by D####:

1) App shuts off when any key is pressed, no way to lock screen without shutting off recording or answer a call (This is a major flaw) 2) No auto upload to Dropbox and/or other cloud storage without uploading ALL of your photos and videos. Conclusion: Nothing here you can't get with a free app.

good idea but crashes when trying to play video from app and does not upload to drop box. and other problems.

B70%
by B####:

Not really sure what the developer is getting at. Absolutely great idea but it doesn't work. Doesn't upload to dropbox, doesn't work without location, doesn't work if the screen times out, doesn't upload to youtube automatically. I can already record video and upload it myself, the idea is to upload automatically so if the device is taken the video can't be deleted. I would suggest making this app work as advertised and adding a stream/live upload feature and a quality setting in case data is low/slow.

by D####:

It saves the video files directly to: PhoneHandsUpForFree.(A bit confusing since I paid for the app.) DropBox uploads from CardDCIMCamera. There is no way to change the directory that handsUp saves to. And yes my phone is set to automatically save Pic and Video to the card. Manually recorded video goes to the correct location for DropBox. It's a good concept, I hope the dev flushes out the bugs. I'll update my rating if he does.

The videos recorded don't link with Dropbox, as it claims in the description. Dropbox sees all my other videos, just not the ones recorded by Hands Up. That's too bad because the main reason I downloaded the app was in case my phone became damaged or confiscated. Google Nexus 4

So after testing the app I notice that the screen doesn't completely go blank. Also, it would be great if the video would auto upload to a youtube or dropbox account. Not knocking this app. I think it's pretty awesome. As a note, I'm running on a samsung S5 Lollipop 5.0.
