I didn't completely understand on the first read what your app did. I read it as taking video of websites -- which is silly, but I thought I'd mention it.

Maybe "Pick your favorite sites" is unnecessary right up front? You mention later it integrates with my favorite sites and I see YouTube etc...

Same here - didn't get it at all at first. When I read "Pick your favorite sites. Take a video. Swipe to share.", I thought that it allowed you to share videos that you found on YouTube or other video sites, which didn't make any sense.

I get it now. Head a bit fried today so can't really think of a better strap-line right now though.

Yeah, I agree. I removed the 'pick your sites' copy altogether - I didn't really need it anyway.

True. Perhaps 'services' or 'social networks' might be better words?

I think your headline doesn't work very well because it doesn't describe the actual process : you say

"Pick your favorite sites. Take a video. Swipe to share."

And what I would do is more like :

Pick a video I've made / Make a video > Slide to the site I want to send it to.

Or maybe I just haven't understood the process at all ^^
