Another note...
Note that most of the reviews are from 2 years ago when the app was in its early stages. Now this app has use of the flashlight, there are 3 filters (none, retrocolor, b&w, and nuclear[which is my favorite]) and the resolution options are 480, 720, and 1080p with 24,25 and 60fps. there is also now an option for random tape dropouts which is great. A few people are talking about making it so you can play music while recording so you dont have “a quiet video, or have to just talk...” Id just like to say that this app looks very authentic and you couldnt play music on your camcorder back then! lol i also think its very unnecessary. also importing videos into the app seems like a cool idea but also, ehh, you dont really need to guys, record what you want to with the app! theres no reason this app shouldnt have 5 stars across the board!

A minor bug on older iPad models running iOS 9.3.6
I have noticed that the Color Bars filter crashes on my iPad Mini running iOS 9.3.6, though it works fine on my iPhone 6S running the latest version of iOS, which is 13.5.1. Otherwise, the other filters work fine. I will still give VHS Camcorder a five-star rating because it’s just one of those apps that I keep coming back to, and I don’t always have the time or physical space to dig out my VCR to process videos on videocassettes that I’ve used time after time. I’ve tried similar apps by other developers, but nothing compares to this. Rarevision truly has perfected the VHS, the Hi8, and even the PXL2000 effects. Having used the app since 2015, I feel as if VHS Camcorder just keeps getting better with every update.

Great App, But...
Love the app, a real great simulator of 1980s/90s technology. A great feature would be the light bleed effect common in some model camcorders. The effect is seen in many films where the sources of light, lamps, bulbs, the sun, and televisions would cause a bleeding effect and trails when the camera would move. A realistic simulation of this effect would really add a whole new level of realism to the VHS Camcorder. Also perhaps more control over the effects, such as brightness, white balance, and color casting. Other than my suggestions, this is a great app from someone who owns many real 1980s camcorders, this is easily the second best thing!
