Review momentum
ⓘ How we measure thisReview momentum (0-100) blends how fast the app collects ratings compared with other apps in its category (60%), whether that pace is speeding up (25%) and what recent raters give it (15%; recent stars well below lifetime pull it down). Ratings counts are read daily. A jump usually means a launch, a feature, ads or a new review prompt.
What users say about CovertCam
From the 50 most recent App Store reviews in the US.
Users report that the app frequently fails to record or save media due to permission errors and crashes on newer iOS versions. The core functionality is undermined by a visible red recording indicator, which contradicts the app's promise of covert operation.
Mostly negative (18% of recent reviews give 4–5 stars). People like it for being easy to use, and being useful. The main complaints are about crashes and bugs, and price and subscriptions. Recent reviews are more positive than earlier ones.
