[Q] Best video recording app?

[yetep]

Hey all,

Sorry if this has came up before - given what the question is it wouldn't surprise me if it had!

Does anyone know what the, generally accepted as, best video recording app for our phones are? After coming from iOS, the camera functions are the only part of the phone that I'm finding it hard to match the iPhone.

I generally take a lot of videos and edit them. Mini-movies aren't aren't at all uncommon for me to film.

Whilst I'm still using my iPad for editing the films (iMovie and so on), I'm anxious to continue to use (and enjoy doing so) my S4 for video recording. My old 5S shot incredible video and even at lower resolution settings the output was generally smoother than the S4 shoots at the same settings.

If I'm stuck with the quality of the video recordings, that's fine and I'll make do. I would just prefer to find an app that can shoot at higher than stock bit rate etc and give me as many options (or close to) that the apps on iOS offers. I came to android as I absolutely LOVE using lollipop and the way it works is brilliant, so as said if I need to continue as I am that's fine. If it helps I'm using GPE 5.0.1 at the moment. Please not I'm not looking to start an iOS vs android discussion, just looking to find out what options I may or may not have and what I might be missing in the Play Store.

Thanks guys,

Pete

Just using this camera app and defo seems to give a better result than TW or other apps I've used in the past, quick question though cause I can't seem to find it anywhere .. Does it allow use of the front facing camera?

that's the only downside. it doesn't have front camera support. just use the stock camera for front camera video capturing. :fingers-crossed: :good:
