App version:
Having this app run in the background consumes 40% of the CPU of my brand new M4 MacBook Air making it extremely laggy and unresponsive. Not worth the performance penalty. I’ll just stick to manually recording things when I think I might need to reference it in the future.

Unusable app. Long meetings (just 1-2 hours ones) always got screen-recording broken. Clicking on the UI could it stuck so we lost the recording. Also the app go recording all the time which harmfully impact to the computer performance (I’m using a M3).

GREAT IDEA; COMPLETELY NON-WORKING APP I have back-to-back Zoom meetings every Monday. As soon as Backtrack begins transcribing the first meeting it needs to also record the second meeting. Unfortunately the result is that it utterly fails to give me a recording of either meeting. Absolutely useless.

Absolutely great idea, but the execution lacks severely. Starting recording instantly rendered my system completely unusable. Can't recommend.

I wanted local only, so deleted account*. Now the interface just keeps showing a login screen, but for my own reason canNOT signin. However, but, I now canNOT drag anything or watch any presumptively present time line… I would/nt know. I do NOT want to signup again. The idea is brilliant but no signin?! No … tja, anything, but it is recording! That is not a problem, its just: where too? *) deleted account: because on my iPhone it suddenly mentioned a name that I have never entered in Setapp before, …. (I’ll spare you that detail, just wanted to get rid of cloud account asap)

EDIT: Seems I had to restart my computer to see the workspace with all requested exports. before that just said loading workspace… and now the video processes much quicker too. Going to continue trying it today! — yeah goto be honest i really wanted to love this app but i cant. super clunky to actually use dev. i cant easily view history, i dont really know whats going on with popups that disappear never to be seen again. reading the reveiws it seems to like it use to be simple and sounds like you need to go back to the drawing board with the ui. on a positive not i learned about rewind so going to try that. i would suggest the dev look into komodo

For me, this is has genuinely been one of the most valuable apps on SetApp. And you can’t fully appreciate it until you actually need it! It’s been a real gamechanger being able to go back and get the recordings of conversations that have happened in my office, on Zoom and on the phone. It even gives you the transcripts. Thank you developers for this one!

Fantastico, não gasta muito recurso, em 2 testes funcionou bem em obter 1hr de reunião. Só não sei ainda qual a tela que ele usa de referencia para gravar caso você tenha mais de uma.

It is okay, but not recomended. Laggy and not developing and can’t detect meeting from google meet (integration with calander helps little). Not enough settings. Slow. A lot ot be done to this app to become really useful. Also drain a battery a lot. No default folder for videos and trascriptions.

Unico neo è che alle volte si impalla e non intercetta le riunioni, devo riavviare il MAC.
