Hey IndieHackers community 👋 I'm Dan Zaitsev, a digital nomad, and maker from Ukraine 🇺🇦 I built and launched an iPhone app that allows users to record videos and use Google Maps simultaneously. Check my first comment to learn more ↙️

I think it would be better if it was a monthly subscription with a free trial. The 1.99 price tag might create a wall between those just on the cusp of buying it.
The other option is to have a free version, but offer a paid version that lets you record video for longer, with a limit on the free version.
Overall, I think this would be very useful for iphone. Have you considered releasing it for android? Though I think such a functionality for android already exists.
Btw, I would also have a video showcasing the app on the app store. The first image is just a black background as well FYI.
Hi again!
I recently started recording my travel vlog, and I realized that it is so tough to switch between cameras and different applications.
I've built a new iOS app that allows users to separate iPhone camera screens and use Google Maps simultaneously. Also, we use Google SDK/API to get data about different places, sights, routes, etc., so you can tell about them on the go.
To validate PoC/MVO quickly, I used Google SDK and the webview, so users have the same UX as on default Google Maps. Sure, I'm a fan of native user experience, and if this concert survives, I will integrate native SDK and improve UX and maybe add an Augmented Reality experience.
In terms of monetization, I used a one-time payment model of $1.99 per download. Your support and feedback are highly appreciated
Thank you!
