● I've unlocked unofficial video support but I cannot playback my videos in Paper Camera, why?

This is a known limitation on some devices, there are 3 workarounds for this:
- You can playback videos on your PC.
- You can use MX Video Player, if you enable software mode.
- Hopefully when your device will receive a 4.0 upgrade this issue will be fixed.

User Review of Paper Camera

  • Money Well Spent Nov 1, 2012

    Ever since I've been using smart phones, I've never paid for an app. I was skeptical at first but I decided to go ahead and try it. The promotional video looked rather inticing. It was definitely money well spent. Nothing but total fun. I'd refer it for anybody.

    Great application, I recommend it to everybody. However I still can't find the integration with Google Drive. How to configure it? (Skydrive + Dropbox work by the way ;))

  • Pretty nice app. Jan 16, 2013

    Does what it promises well. Only issue I've had is deleting photos/videos, I couldn't figure out how to do that from within the app itself, so I had to go to the gallery and do it there.

  • Fun Nov 6, 2012

    It's a good app. Very creative. But.. Have to open app to view gallery. Should have the ability to view pictures full screen when you're in the gallery, but it feels like looking at the small lcd on an actual camera, please fix. Loading screens all the time kinda annoying.
