General Information

Do you plan to create new features?

Yes, we are constantly developing new features. Currently, we are working on AI Captions that are created on your device without internet connection.

This feature is in development, and we have the architecture for it.

This feature is planned.

AI captions are generated based on the speech in the video and appear at the bottom of the screen. We're making it local, without using API

Performance

Is it available to record 4k videos?

Yes, you can record in 4K.

Is there a way to make rendering faster?

Yes, reducing settings like quality can speed up rendering.
