Bought a $40 'viral' app that just copies your phone screen for 24 hours.
It got boring after two days and now I'm stuck with a useless download, so is this whole 'ambient phone' thing just another quick cash grab or will it actually stick around?

Honestly, forty bucks for a screen recorder? That's the real shocker. Tbh, these ambient phone apps feel like the digital version of pet rocks. They get hyped for a week because some guy on TikTok left his phone by a plant, then everyone moves on. You paid for a feature your phone probably already has buried in the settings. It's a total cash grab that'll be gone by next month.

Thought the same until @christopher_wells4 explained the audio issue.

Check your phone's built-in recorder first. Mine only does internal audio, not system sounds, which is why I looked at other apps. The good ones solve a real problem for some people.
