Everything is Pro

At this point don’t even bother making the app free

Lento

Comprei, não foi barato e é lento demais!

This app stole my money

I subscribed to the PRO but cancelled after the 3-day trial but I was still charged.

Scam

This is just scam, App doesn’t really work. Whenever I try to export my phone freezes

No free edits

You can’t do anything in this app unless you pay.

Ok but not great

Good templates but not very versatile

Very happy with the variety of ideas it help a lot !

No need to pay..

I'm using the paid version. This app can't handle photos or videos and makes a lot of errors. I couldn’t save anything before it close off me. Wasted lots of time. It's a very basic app that can't handle too many operations.

Not wildly impressed with template options

For the amount you pay I would expect the audio to be attached to the reels you create. I can only upload my context to Instagram and no other platform while having the audio still attached. This is extremely frustrating and if I knew that was the case I never would have purchased. I also don’t think there are enough templates options overall in terms of reels, photo displays and promos.

Fail

This app has a bug. When I choose the template with my content and try to edit it—like cropping a photo or selecting part of a video—the app closes

Times Out

Several weeks ago I was making a reel for my work account and mid editing the app would time out. When I go back, my content was not saved so I’d have to start over. Fast forward 5 tries, this kept happening. I updated the app, deleted storage, made sure I had wifi, no wifi, closed out a bunch of apps, etc. nothing fixes this. Not sure what to do at this point but I’ve stopped trying and this is a serious waste of money. Whatever is causing this needs to be fixed as it’s not good for customers. Reliability and consistency is key and this is a complete disappointment from my initial experience.

Не вартує своїх грошей!

Усі ці різноманітні готові шаблони для сторіз виглядають різноманітно, проте як тільки починаєш редагувати їх і підлаштовувати під себе (зі своїми фото/відео)- усвідомлюєш, що редактор настільки незручний, що замість того, щоб менше часу на створення контенту витрачати - ти витрачаєш х2-3 і до того ж купу нервових клітин. Не розумію цього ціноутворення, творці додатку явно себе переоцінили!!

Scam!

just installed the app and was offered a 3-day free trial. I clicked to start the free trial, and immediately $24 was charged to my account. How is that a free trial? This feels misleading and dishonest. I didn’t agree to be charged upfront. I’m very disappointed and would like a refund. Definitely not recommending this app to anyone!!!!

Disappointing Experience – Not Worth the Price (for now)

It makes me sad to say this because the app seemed really promising at first, which is why I bought the subscription. But unfortunately, I haven’t been able to use it much—every time I try, it crashes, doesn’t save my progress, and I have to start over from scratch. The editing tools aren’t very smooth either, which adds to the frustration.

What’s also confusing is how highly rated the app is. Now that I’ve gone back to read other reviews, I see that a lot of people are experiencing the same issues I am. It makes me question how it has such a high overall rating.

The concept is great, and I want to believe it has potential—but right now, it’s just not there. I wouldn’t recommend it if you’re thinking about paying. Free apps like CapCut actually perform better and are far more reliable.

Maybe it will be worth trying again in the future, but for now, the app needs a lot more development—not just bug fixes. Compared to what’s already available on the market, it simply doesn’t hold up.

Excellent

Perfect to increase my business sales.

Server Error

I get more server errors than any reels made .

Very mid

You can search tittles. Very limited range honestly. It’s just OK. Not worth the price

Разочарование…

Купила на год, в итоге не могу пользоваться нормально, через раз приходится восстанавливать покупки, сегодня вообще не смогла этого сделать🤬😡 новых шаблонов почти нет, не понимаю теперь за что вообще оплатила.
