    Screen Recorder: Go Record — Hate it — I’ll give it a one just because but I expected a facecam and screen recording but you have to pay for a facecam effect and to screen record all you have to do is turn it on in the settings so don’t waste your time why do I have to pay 10 dollars to do a picture In picture…
