Comments:

You may wish to consider using this tool as a quick way to implement an exit ticket at the end of a lesson.  Have pairs of students interview each other about what they learned.  With the free version, performances can be uploaded to YouTube.  With a $0.99 in App purchase, performances can be saved to the camera roll and then shared from there. With the free version, performances are limited to 30 seconds. With a $0.99 in App purchase, performances can be up to 90 seconds. With either time limit, students are required to synthesize to fit their thinking into the time limit.
