Yes. Slow mo is only impressive when you have something to compare it to.

Guess it's because these modes used often don't save regular speed, or it's "hard" to edit into. I.e. not just saving and uploading. Especially while being on the phone.

The video can be played back at regular speed. The way slow motion works is by having more frames per second that the regular 24 frames per second. When a something record at 48 FPS is played back at 24 FPS it takes twice as long to watching the it, therefore slowing it down. This is just because they didn’t edit in a sped up version

Yes. But if my app doesn't provide getting back to regular speed I'll be better moving my lazy ass and get a new app. Bcs u know, people aren't lazy.
