People usually ask.
Do I need to be on camera?
No. The camera faces your hands and your work, not your face. Faces of customers and passers-by are blurred.
What phone do I need?
An Android phone. We provide the head strap free. Uploads wait for Wi-Fi so your data is not used up.
Where can I record?
Recording is live in Lagos first. People in other cities can join the waitlist now and are invited as their city opens.
Is there a limit to how much I can record?
Yes, a daily cap on approved video hours, shown on this page from our live rates. It keeps quality high and stops abuse.
