Awesome idea, ads not aggressive at all. But: On an old phone with android 6 I could view, but it would not record. On a newer phone with android 11 I could view and record, but in continuous rec mode, recordings were a series of 5-min clips (good luck reviewing several hrs of video). And one major problem: on newer phone in power saving mode (great idea, screen goes black, right?) the bottom strip with toggle, home, back buttons remain bright white. It will burn out your screen. Uninstalling.

After researching apps I went with this all several years back and have no regrets. I went w the free account for some time, and that's really all I needed, but upgraded at the time to support the developers. Pro account provides unlimited time plus more. You can use old devices and you can expect to hear back from the developer if you email them. Lastly, I tried a handful of similar apps and was disappointed for a wide range of reasons.
