Pretty Amazing App!!!

I just wanted to stop by to drop this review. Thank you, Big Vu for making this app! It’s amazingly user-friendly and has made it super easy to stop thinking about becoming a content creator and to just start creating! There’s still a lot of features I’m learning but I found the edit and trim feature really helpful for when I mess up a portion of my monologue. I can easily just go back, trim the portion I messed up, delete it, and pick up where I left off! The app also seems to be able to intelligently tell your speaking pace. Not sure how to adjust this yet (the pace of the word scroll) but I’m sure I’ll get the hang of it. Anyway, thanks again!

BIG UV Teleprompter - If it would just work on Iphone 11

I don’t understand why there’s certian bugs that make it unusable for a polished professional video. There’s like one part of the app that seems really beneficial and that’s adding the quotations and text on screen and for some reason there’s just glitches in segments that just don’t allow it to work properly- it works for like half the video and then suddenly you can’t add or fix quotations in individual segments, it crashes and I have to repeat the process over again. One particularly frustrating thing is that it’s a 60 dollar subscription by far one of the most expensive on the market- and I rationalized the purchase as a must have for my industry wants.

There is one part that is late in the video where no matter what you type the time segment reader or however they manage individual segments to be picked up by the application, divides one section to be much longer and the words freeze on screen for a few minutes no matter how many times I try to fix this it’s just not fixable. It’s otherwise an app with amazing potential. I may come back to edit this but I even just updated the app thinking that would help but it didn’t it’s the same issue.

Hello there, we're sorry you're having a problem with our app. Contact us at support@bigvu.tv and We will help you fix this issue. Talk soon.

I just tired of subscriptions

To get the teleprompter without watermark starts at $90 per year. If you want longer videos, you're up to $140 per year. Yes, there are lots of other features but if you just want the teleprompter, you're stuck in a subscription. I'm tired of subscriptions.

Why do I have to buy video landing pages just to get a good teleprompter? I don't even have a green screen or intend to use on. I don't need my captions emphasized. Why do I have to pay more for longer videos? What additional costs is BigVU incurring by me uploading a longer script and reading it off my phone and storing the longer video locally?

I just cannot wrap my head around why every app has to be a subscription and insists on budling everything so the one feature you come for is locked in a package with things you don't need.

Hi JGibbard, thank you for your feedback! Unfortunately, it seems we were not great at explaining the power of BIGVU. We're not just a teleprompter. With a subscription, you also get unlimited transcriptions, automatic captions, Video landing page creation (and analytics), AI driven editing (caption emphasizer, auto crop, AI video trimming, smart audio boost and more). And this is just with our Starter plan. With Pro, you also get Social Media analytics for any post you make from BIGVU, 4k videos up to 59 minutes, unlimited video storage, and very soon, a script AI helper that help you turn ideas into brilliant scripts! In any case, we really appreciate your honest feedback, and hope you continue to be our customer! Please reach out to us at support@bigvu.tv if you have any additional questions.

A little advice…

It would be great if BIGVU offered some beauty filters. Today I filmed for 2 hours and noticed the lighting really made me look tired and yellow. Fixing that by adding a filter would have been nice… instead it looks like I will be spending the day recording again. 😖

Thanks a lot for the suggestion! Our product team looks at all feature requests we get and spends a lot of time researching and working on new features. At the moment I donʼt have any details on if/when this will be worked on but Iʼll let the team know that youʼd really like this to happen!

Wish it worked

Hard to export videos, videos sometimes have no sound, no way to speed up or slow down the text once you’ve started (it doesn’t go with your voice) or start and stop takes. This is a good idea with so much feature bloat it ruins the actual point of the app - having a teleprompter.

First App review ever

As far as an App and what it does. I tried it for a few days. It’s excellent. I set an alarm to remind me to decide to use it or cancel because I know it’s easy to forget. (And End up subscribing to another app you forget you’re paying for). I went to cancel the subscription because although it was great, $49 a month right now isn’t worth it for me personally. (Again it’s. A great app). When I checked, it had me subscribed for 6 months at $49. I immediately contacted their Instagram (they got back to me very fast) which told me I had to contact Apple. Apple did refund me. But my issue is it’s so easy to forget and you definitely shouldn’t be locked in for 6 months. In conclusion the app is good. And prob worth the money for someone who needs it but from a general business practice it could use a little refinement. Hope this is helpful to all parties.

Do any sort of video content creation

This app makes it easy for a newbie to make video content that looks reasonably professional from the outset. With a little time the results will be even better because the app is not the constraining factor.

Great app for rapid content creation

Can’t fault this nifty app for fast and professional content creation. I don’t usually leave reviews but this software deserves a few sentences to help support their efforts.

Perfect!

I found in this app everything I was looking for. Easy to learn, complete and practical. It saves me a lot of time. I was able to create more videos and the teleprompter is a big difference when you have it and help you to keep looking at the camera all the time.
