Freaking amazing app for those who may be overstimulated by having to always be available to people to maintain digital relationships to them! it's like a letter in video form.

I agree with the other reviews about the price increases. It's absolutely ridiculous and an app like this does NOT need to be increasing pricing so much. Especially since it doesn't seem like no new features or perks have been added with the prices? Up to $60/yr and now it's $80?! They have made the free version unusable and no fun to use and all the good tools are paywalled. I've been using this app for years and this is probably my last. Extremely lame.

putting a disability feature like transcripts behind a pay wall is a choice

I enjoy this app for being able to connect with groups of friends that are across the country. it helps us stay in touch in-between meet-ups. my frustration as a paid user is that transcript summaries can be in random languages that I do not recognize. This needs to be fixed.

Been using this app for a year to keep in touch with my sister. More personal than texting and easier to work around our own schedule than a phone call. Cons: no timer while recording, no pause button while watching, and occasionally get a video that refuses to play and you can't record the next one until the sender deleted it on their end.
