The app is very good probably the best in the market and the idea of using volume keys is just great!! However, every time U press volume keys they make a sound to notify start or end of recording and there is no option to disable it or change to vibration. Next U should use the UP key to take photos and DOWN key for recording then 5 stars and purchase straight away!!

I bought svr pro before and it works great. But suddenly it stops working and i cant find the apps anymore. I just found out that the zenaapp change it to background video recorder. What gives? Do i have to buy another one for unlimited recording?

I love it! One thing i would REALLY like to see. A low light/ night vision mode like some of the other spy video recorders. I use mine a lot at night and get awful results. But they would be decent if I had a low light mode. Thanks:)

I paid for svr pro and i cant get it anymore here from google. I read fron the comments that you are refunding payments from that app. May i know I can refund mine too? Thanks mgmt replied to this feedback. They asked me to email them but no reply from them after sending the email

What a good app to have if your just an everyday kinda guy. Find out what ppl really think of you. Find out if your being used find out if someone is stealing from you. Really it helps you weed out the ppl you don't need in your life anymore. I just wish I hadn't had to pay twice. But I did and I'm glad that BVR and google worked out their differences.....

Still no response from theae guys. Do not purchase. 4gb or two thirty minute clips is all you will get before crashing. Have emailed them and they never reply. Rubbish.

I purchased SVR a year or so ago. Changed phone. Couldn't get SVR back. After reading the comments it seemed like they had to remove SVR and made a new one BVR. I reluctantly purchased kt all over agian. Today I got a new phone. And it's telling me I need to purchase it for a 3rd time with the same account. Google please do something. This is a rip off. Big time.

Previously "Zero Noise Apps," the guy changes the name of his company to steal the money of everyone who purchased the previous app, expecting them to repurchase. If you don't repurchase, your plagued with ads again. google needs to take action against this scammer. I've written several mails to their "support" and I've received no response! I'm working with google support for a refund now.

I purchased a previous version that's no longer available. That would be fine if I was able to get the new version without having to pay again but they won't respond to my email.

I paid for this software but since they changed the name of the app all of a sudden iv lost my license. It used to be called svr not it's bvr and I'm not paying again.

It makes a terrible sound of shutter while using the volume button, not working by any method in LG G4

Awesome thank you for thinking of us I used to press the DVR button by mistake and fill up my memory with useless recordings now that does not happen, it's got a secondary check. Thank you very much keep up the good work I was happy to purchase your product.

There's a bug causing the video recording to stop after the second split video is done. App fails to start the 3rd video. For example, when I try to set the split by size to 4GB, the video recording works fine until the 8th GB, where it then crashes when trying to record to a third file.

What kind of app makes you pay for unlimited timing I mean seriously why it makes no sense just put it in the free version you might as well be saying we're gonna make you pay to record more than a minute what the hell

Ads are way too loud because the app takes over your volume. To get rid of them the price is way too much. App is great for quick recording but the extras make it awful

Have had no trouble with it so far, but I am curious. What about SVR was noncompliant with Google?

I have ALREADY bought this application when it was called "SVR". Now that I have changed my device, the application does not exists anymore, the developers have just renamed the app in Google Play Store and I have to PAY AGAIN for the same product. This is called *theft*

by K####:

Hard to beat. Have tried a lot of similiar apps looking for something practical and capable but this is by far the best. Like many before I had purchased svr and had to pay again for bvr. Pleased to say as promised I have received a full refund. Get it you won't be disappointed.

The difference between this app and BVR is just how to trigger the video. The best recorder for me that I use it on the bicycle. I paid for svr in the past and I even got s refund! (The fault is of Google that forced them to change app)

I bought an app called ( secret video recorder2 ) or (SVR2 ) with 9.99 Dollars why I cant get the licence in this app I wont pay another 7.87 Dollars. The previous app still with me I didnt delete it till now. I also have a problem with the previous app (or the same app with diffirent name (SVR2)) and I found it in this app (non upgraded version) which is the SHUTTER MUTE I am using SAMSUNG GALAXY K ZOOM i used this app for both back and front camera I TRIED ALL THE METHODS

Tried using the app to allow a phone to be used as a security camera, but the picture freezes while the sound keeps recording and the video slicing stops the recording at the size/length limit instead of cutting the file and continuing to record. Good for short recording, but not much else with these problems still around. Tried on Nexus 5 and Zenfone 2

Can't even feel vibration on lg stylo. would be awesome if there was a way to adjust this. Quality of video is amazing!

O70%
by O####:

This is pathetic on Google's part. Why remove a perfectly good app that everyone liked? If it was "non-compliant" then surely it is their LEGAL OBLIGATION to inform the users and APOLOGISE, not just simply remove the app that people had paid for without explanation. Reminds me of Valve corporation... If they keep up with this bullshit I'm going to have to write my own version. Does Google, like British police, have a problem with people being able to obtain video evidence of abuse / misconduct?

I used the previous app and was happy with it, but I am thrilled with this version! Audio and video quality are both phenomenal, and I'm continually impressed and surprised with what this phenomenal little app can do. It's been a lifesaver, especially after dense meetings in which I need to use other apps on my phone. I never miss any details anymore! I love saving to my SD card. I tried the rest & bought the best. Well worth the upgrade purchase: highly recommended. [Samsung Galaxy Note 4]

**** This review is about the free version **** Maximum recording duration - 1 minute. I'm using the PRO version. This limitation of 1 minute is ridiculous!!! It is impossible to observe the problems of the app until after you have tested recording for longer duration ..one should buy the PRO version and then get stuck ?? !! 720 x 480 recording is good with good video compression rate. Even with PRO version, support is too slow if it exists !! I'm still awaiting their response regarding problems with HD recording. This app is still better than other 4*+ rated apps here. So go figure it out for yourself !

Selecting hide videos gives message can not access ext sd (very odd since videos save just fine). Mute does not work on any method out of the 5. Auto focus does not work. All on lollipop. Unfinished product, stay away. Use built in std camera in your phone where 4k video and AF works for free and Mute audio, much better if you don't want sounds. This camera is useless. And thir home page does not work and they just changed name of app which made buying users lose their license. Read comments.

I was going to make a rather scathing review about this app, but since I found out there are refunds going out, I will change my stars when my refund has been RECEIVED. Aside from having to buy this app TWICE, I decided to download it because I was in a pinch and I would argue paying twice later. Now, onto why even now this "new" app is useless to me. I use VNC server to control the device remotely (start and stop recording). There is no way I can press the physical volume keys to start and stop recording remotely. This used to be a great app. I cannot use it at all now and the Christmas play has come and gone. Thanks for taking my money - and the memories I would have had of my kids.

So i bought the first SVR pro on my GS3 and i recently upgraded to the S6 and i can't download the first one anymore. Im a little upset that i cannot download it as i had already payed for it. Is there anyway to get the first one back? I really don't want to have to pay for the second version when i already payed for the first but can't get it on my new phone. Please help me with this as i really enjoy your product.
