About this app

Riverside.fm is the easiest way to record podcasts and videos in studio quality from anywhere.
The platform is ideal for podcasters, media companies, and online content creators that prioritize quality. You can capture up to 4K video and 48kHz WAV audio, regardless of your internet connection. With local recording, everything records directly on your device instead of over the internet. The app automatically uploads all files to the cloud so you can access them from your desktop and use Riverside’s online tools, to enhance your content. Record with up to 8 participants in one session, and download separate audio and video tracks to maximize your editing control. Plus, you can use Multicam mode to turn your phone into a secondary webcam for your desktop (and often your mobile phone has a far better camera than your laptop webcam). With Riverside.fm, you can record high-quality audio and video content even when you're on the move. It’s the perfect solution for dynamic webinars or talking head-style videos that can be shared on TikTok, YouTube or Instagram.

The easy-to-use platform is used by podcasters, media companies, and online content creators that care about quality. You receive locally recorded, individual WAV audio and up to 4k video tracks for up to 8 participants per session.

Very frustrated with the app recently. Had to record one program 3 times because the whole program didn't record. Today it only recorded a minute and a half so I'll have to redo that whole program. Was not an issue until this week. Now I don't know if I can trust it. Willing to bump the rating up if the issue is resolved.

Recording your podcast with this is extremely simple and easy to do. Easy to get people joining the stream as well. My issue is there is no editing capabilities whatsoever pretty much. You can trim your clips... that's it. I simply wanna adjust a few audio levels, add a intro in. Basic stuff. One of our microphones is a little loud and i can only normalize audio by exporting...which isn't direct control.

Nothing but issues. Constantly drops you out of the studio and won't allow for exporting the episode. Paid nearly $300 and tech support is not responsive. They just keep saying to reach out to the support page, but they are NOT RESPONDING. The app is completely worthless as they don't allow you to use their tools or export the episode to Spotify. They are extremely quick to take your $300 though.
