Maybe Flonnect is great, but unfortunately, Flonnect makes it VERY hard to work with šŸ˜ž

Hello,
Unfortunately, working with Flonnect is VERY frustrating.

1st, unfortunately, you can't select a custom area on the screen to record. You are required to select a window, a browser tab, or the entire screen for recording.

šŸ™ˆ 1. Ironically, Flonnect is designed to create tutorials. But Flonnect apparently can't manage to use its own product to create tutorials showing how to work with Flonnect

🄓 2. There is a ā€œdemoā€ video, but it's 100% useless. Just marketing fluff.

āš ļø 3. With the license, you can make 30 or 100 videos per month. While you try to figure out how to use Flonnect, you’ve probably already made 20 completely useless test recordings.
āÆ Videos that are < 60s shouldn’t count toward the ā€œvideos per monthā€ quota.

🄓 4. Flonnect has issues with terminology; sometimes it calls functions ā€œRecord,ā€ sometimes it's called ā€œShareā€ - and it’s 100% confusing.

ā‰ļø 5. For some recordings, I have a timeline where I can edit them, but for others, this option isn’t available.

😟 6. The Flonnect Dashboard doesn’t explain the difference between ā€œScreen Record,ā€ ā€œBug Report,ā€ ā€œScreenshot,ā€ and ā€œPresentation.ā€

😱 7. If you want to select the webcam to be used in recordings, it’s COMPLETELY unclear how to do it: There’s NO option to select the webcam in the default settings.

About 10 minutes ago, I happened to stumble upon a hidden option to select a webcam (now I can't find it again) — but it's a nightmare:

7.1) There is no webcam preview in the webcam configuration
7.2) There is also no webcam preview before you start the recording
7.3) You can’t see a webcam preview while recording either
7.4) In the recorded video... the webcam is missing

😄 8. When you're editing a video or the timeline, there's no way to get back to the dashboard. You can't delete the Video you're editing.

ā‰ļø 9. I have three webcams, and I'm pretty sure that Flonnect isn't activating the one I selected: I can see an image in the Windows Camera app, but in Flonnect the screen is black.

šŸ˜ I think Flonnect has great features, but when it comes to the six most important basic functions, the usability is unfortunately a nightmare (Webcam selection, -settings, -preview. The configuration right before you start a recording. Explanations of what each function is doing and of what a setting is for (e.g., domain name for bug reportsā‰ļø ) and consistently clear terminology.

Thanks a lot, kind regards,
Thomas
