I just bought it and tried it out. It works great in good lighting. Awesome job.

Wow fantastic app! I've missed this kind of video processing ever since Luma was acquired by Instagram and shut down.

Maybe add iPod Touch to the not supported list in the app description. Although I know there aren't many of us!

I tried it on a bike and then edited the video with replay. I was really impressed with the result https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ynVeMFAQM8

What is impressive about that movie ? To me it's quite the opposite.. it's not impressive at all (too dark, bad fps) and when I watch it there is something in it that causes head aches. It's very hard to watch.

How does this video stabilization work?

We record data from the internal sensors in your iPhone while shooting the video (mainly, the gyroscope), which allows us to estimate how your camera moves when taking the video and compensate for that.

That's a neat way to do it, good stuff!

Oups! We'll do that. There is a good chance that iTouch will be supported in the next update.

Just spins the loading animation without showing any video in the camera screen. Wondering if there is any server work and it might be under heavy load due to HN and whatnot. Edit: iPhone 5s. Edit2: its working now!

I'm on a 4S and nothing but spinning...
