I believe that everyone had this kind of experience, that is, suddenly saw something interesting and immediately took out the phone: turned on the camera, found a good angle, pressed the video button, and then took this interesting thing down. But when you open the album and are ready to send this video to some friends or share to a social media, you will find:
