Anyone recommend a video app for Android?
Yeah, sounds weird, every phone comes with the ability to record video, right?
Problem is the lack of settings, I'm pretty sure the videos I'm uploading here are far bigger than they need to be, I don't need 4K here, I don't need anything fancy, 1080 is fine, heck 720 would prolly be fine here, but I don't get any control on my phone. I do have an editing app that could prolly do it, but it'd be easier if'n it was just built into the recording app in the first place.

Advise me, Fediverse!
What application would you use to record spoken video & audio using a webcam & desktop mic?
I recently used #Zoom because it makes things incredibly easy, but it sometimes makes the wrong assumptions. I know about #OBSStudio but it seems like complete overkill.

What's in-between? Bonus points if it does a little bit of built-in noise elimination. I don't need a complex post-production workflow.

I'm using Fedora 42, KDE Plasma edition.
