It’s good
It’s really good, it’s basic but good. I’d like to be able to split the clips I take so e.g. if I have to clips I can keep jumping between them. I’d like to have more control over ramping speed up and down in the same clip. And I’d like to be able to add more than one song.

Maybe these things will come in the future, but the app right now is still 100% worth it.

Keeps crashing
Been working great but my last video project keeps crashing when I attempt a playback.

UPDATE: good dev support, crash issue has been fixed and I managed to recover my project. Thanks

UPDATE: As of right now the individual clip sound control doesn’t work. For example I’m unable to turn down the music when someone is talking. Also the app quits a lot when you’re power editing clips; it will just close down. I’m using iPhone X.

Hi, Sorry about the recent crashes! We’ve made an update that should fix the problem, please try downloading the latest version from the App Store.
Great app for editing “Vine” style
Amazing app, easy to use. The editing is a little clunky (and time consuming due to its clunkiness - would love to work with you to fix this), but manageable. You can come up with some really creative videos with this one, a staple for your content creation arsenal.

App shuts down
Whenever i am trying add the same video twice from the spark menu which you find when you click the plus button on the right hand top corner, the app just shuts down.

Won’t let me save to my camera roll
I saw great reviews for this app and was excited to use it. But after I made my movie I couldn’t add music. It wouldn’t play and my clips would go black. Also it won’t let me save to my camera roll. Whenever I try I get 2 pop up options of opening it on Instagram or IG TV. When I push Instagram it will open the app but nothing will happen. If I PAY for an app in a world with so many FREE ones there should be no big issues. I shouldn’t have to go to iMovie to fix what this app couldn’t do. I’m not a fan of iMovies transitions but it looks like I have no choice since this app won’t work for me. Also I’m disputing to get my money back. #petty

Need a lot of improvement!
We should have a profile to save our videos so we have access to it whenever we want! Also UI need some improvement: when i want to delete the last video it gets me frustrated. When i save a video it should not add the spark logo in the video I already purchased the app!

Loved the App until it crashed and No response form Support
I am only giving this app a one star because of their lack of support. I loved the app easy to use as I use it for vlogging. I just got back from a trip and had a 12 min video with clips saved on the app. When editing the videos it suddenly crashed and now every time I try to access the clips to edit of view I am unable to. I’m furious because I am unable to recover those clips as it is not saved on my phone. I have contacted support team twice via e-mail and it’s been 2 days no response whatsoever or even a confirmation that my message received. Disappointed and sad my clips are not able to be viewed or save!!!

We fixed this issue in the most recent update. Please update in the App Store :) Let me know if there's anything else we can do for you!
Keeps crashing 🤷🏽‍♀️
Love this app but whilst I’m editing my videos is bumps me out of the app. When I reopen the app and try to resume editing as soon as I press the play button it shuts down again. I’ve closed the app and restarted my phone but no fix. Please help!

Epic Fail
Spent about half an hour filming some great footage of the kids playing... did all the edits and added a song from Sparks library then the app crashed. Opened the app again went to that video and it kept closing the app when I tired to play it. Every other clip I’d made prior to Spark adding music to their library worked however since expanding their library it’s been terrible.

Some great footage lost. Very disappointing.
