I've purchased a license to be using Phia on Chrome, and now it turned into a macOS useless app since I don't work on overpriced junk. Thanks for this brilliant move, waste of money and I just feel scammed.

@expertenough Hello Bruno, browsers have limitations which had caused a lot of features not able to be developed, and performance issues, but still, please send me your email address, and I'll refund your full money. zaid@phia.app
I have given free upgrade to all the users who bought Phia when it was a chrome extension and people who are on windows, are given refunds.

@dessignnet Thank you Marios :)
I mainly use screen recording for product demo/tutorials — curious with where Phia has an edge compared to Screen Studoi? More automation-first or more manual control for editing?

@new_user___3572025ed16bf9867efb4a5 Hello Sylvia, Its in both, it offers features like Texts, Slides, custom assets, animated brand titles which are more personal brand focused, and at the same time, everything is automation focused as well, from auto zoom, to layouts
@new_user___3572025ed16bf9867efb4a5 @zaidbren Thanks for the clarification! That combo sounds really practical — no need to switch to another tool for extra editing. Excited to try it out.
Congrats on the launch! As a developer building video automation tools, I know how tricky rendering high-quality clips can be. The auto-zoom feature looks very smooth. Is it using FFMPEG in the background or a custom engine?

@cryptoraichu Hello Emre, its built using Apple's native Metal api for all GPU processing, and apple video frameworks for video processings :)
Amazing app, just bought the premium, when would the iphone recording be implemented?

@dimitri_daws Thank you Dimitri, the iphone recording would be implemented soon, its in the roadmap
I remember searching for alternatives to the pre existing tool out there, when i came accross Phia, it was a great experience, I remember Zaid himself helping me with the video editing and music back then which was very kind of him. Today I see Zaid has shifted this awsome tool from a browser extension into a dedicated macOS app, I'm truly happy for you Zaid.
I cannot wait to see the launch of a windows app inshallah!
Many Many Congratulations Zaid.

@akritihere Thank you Akriti :)
Didn't work for me , initially when I bought it , and it didn’t allow me to enter the license key ... but Zain diagnosed the problem and rectified it when I reached out to him related to multiple monitors, and a few other things which was causing the issue. Thank you.

@murali_balaraman Hello Murali, I fixed the issue regarding the multiple monitor setup, it should now be able to pick different setups. Please update to the latest version, Thank you for understanding.
@zaidbren Zaid is really responsive to issues if they crop up… Now things work fine. I am confident this product will go places …
Looks promising, and the best part is its one-time investment; otherwise, most tools charge that much on a monthly basis. Will update by review once I have used it thoroughly.
