Cassette: Home Video Player

This is the coolest implementation of “memories” for videos I’ve ever seen. The ui design of the handwritten VHS tapes with unique label art, the old school tv view and navigation buttons, and the way it just instantly gathers and plays memories over the last 10 years of my iCloud Photo Library is crazy awesome. I also love the instant share as a video file while watching a clip. I purchased the app immediately to show my support for this developer! A couple things I wish it had to make it perfect (it’s already awesome but these would be incredible feature adds): - Audio while viewing from the tv/library screen. - An option to play content cropped through different aspect ratios like 1:1 and 4:3. - A nostalgia effect/filter that transforms your videos to styles like mini DV, hi8, vhs, webcam, etc. - An Apple TV app or support for airplay that’s not just screen mirroring. Or at least a rotate-able ui that would fit on a 16:9 tv when screen mirroring. - VHS tape load/unload and tape feed sound effects. - Fast forward and rewind sound/visual effects. I love my old mini dv and hi8 camcorders but they’re a pain to pull footage off of these days. Requiring me to use firewire on my old 2012 macbook lol. So having an ability to pick a style of tape and simulate its sound/visual effects would be just about the coolest thing ever. Nothing better than re-living some nostalgic memories through imperfect visuals. Modern phones record memories in a technically “perfect” way that feels so sterile. This app is a huge breath of fresh air that makes reliving memories fun again :)
