Ravid Video Messenger looking for Beta testers

[sghael]

I recently built an app with the goal of make video messaging as simple as text messaging. MMS is horrible and other video apps lack privacy. Sorry no tablets and US-only for the next few weeks.

Our app is here:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.VideoMessagingClient

Some features:
* No sign up / no login
* Send a message to any smartphone user, even if they don't have the app
* Front facing cameras on most phones (especially Gingerbread)
* Contacts list integration
* One button reply
* Native portrait orientation! (we hate camera based apps that force you landscape)
* Intelligent orientation detection algorithm
* Intelligent packetized uploads thats reliable over even the worst of connections, and won't kill your battery.

Some bugs we're tracking:
* Does your front facing camera recording appear upside down? This appears to happen on some phones... let us know!

I would love your feedback/suggestions/reports on how the app performs on your phone. Particularly if you have a front-facing camera. Sorry no tablets or non-US phones yet.

And feel free to contact me at android@ravidapp.com

thanks in advance!

I am using it and so far like it (haven't received a message yet...) I think you should add a way to send it via Gtalk as well. I think a lot of us android folks dropped the expensive text messaging options in favor of gtalk.
