NOT a free app!

It is grossly misleading to have a free app when the only “free” thing about it is the download. Sure if you scroll all the way down the product description you find a mention that all the advertised features are only available with a weekly subscription, but let’s face it, who is doing that for a frigging slideshow app? No one, as you well know, which is why you’ve hidden it there.

I wanted to give this zero stars because I’m rating the free app I downloaded. And that has zero features… so zero stars. Sadly that’s not an option, so you get an unearned bonus star.

Paid app ONLY useless unless you subscribe

I hate apps like this…that you can’t use at all unless you subscribe free trial which goes into auto subscription or not. Especially when you give access to stuff like this… first thing they ask is to grant access to all your photos, so fine. Then uploads it. Then tells you can’t do anything unless you sign up. Then even reading back the description it says subscribe to get the features they list like it’s an upgrade or something like you can do at least something at all without having to agree and subscribe. Nope. Completely useless unless you do. It’s so deceiving especially the way this one is worded even though didn’t really read until after lol but so isn’t clear you have to do anything. I have no problem signing up for subscriptions or buying apps, i upgrade the ones i use a lot all the time but this is automatic delete not going to be tricked into downloading and then uploading pics to say nope can’t do anything. So deceiving. Deleting immediately. Don’t download unless you have no problem signing up to do anything or will waste your time can’t stand these types so irritating

Response from developer

Hi, thank you for sharing your opinion with us. We confirm that you are requested to pay to use Slideshow. The app is the result of a lot of hard work and time by many talented people who are constantly working to improve it and make it the best possible version: that’s why we prefer to ask our users to pay for a subscription, so as not to interrupt your precious creative work with bothering advertising banners and to push the quality of the app higher and higher. However, we gladly offer you a free trial useful to try out all the functionalities before committing to payment. We would like to respond personally to any further feedback you may have. Feel free to send us an email to reviews@bendingspoons.com.

Great slideshow real easy to use seriously!

Great slideshow super easy to use didn’t need to take a course or anything just jump right in and do it.

App fails. No Support

If it was possible to leave half a star I would have left it. For poor or non-existent support.
The app does not load up my photos or open anymore. I uninstalled, reinstalled and did a hard reset of my phone no resolution to the issue. Barely used 40% of my phone memory so I know it’s not a fault with my device.

After upgrading to a premium version of the app I keep getting “something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes, if the issue persists, contact our support” Emails sent to the customer support have gone unreplied for 3 days now.

I was hoping to use the app to create a slideshow for my daughter’s birthday but was totally let down by the failure of the app. I had to find an alternative elsewhere. I now regret the decision of upgrading the app. Wouldn’t recommend it to anyone looking for something reliable. The poor technical support just makes things worse.

Quick and easy to use

Very easy to navigate and create. I had my first video posted within 7minutes! Great music library. I love that you can ‘fullscreen’ the vertical images. I review plenty of apps before choosing this one and so far it’s better than expected and way better than the others on offer.

Smooth and efficient

I never write reviews for anything but felt compelled to leave some good words about this app it uploads very quickly it’s very user-friendly and doesn’t lag it’s great I highly recommend

Very Happy Customer

All day I’ve been looking for an app to merge three videos together and this app right here is amazing. Thank you

Doesn’t work

First of all it lets you add all your photos and videos in, then once you’ve wasted your time doing that it makes you pay for a subscription just to do anything with the photos, and then even after paying for the subscription it says there was an issue loading and doesn’t get any further than that anyway. Don’t waste your time.

Free subscription is a lie

Great app however it said free 7 day trial and you’ve took £2.49 out of my account this isn’t what I signed up for so you have false advertising I will be reporting this especially as it seems I’m not the only one that’s had this issue!
That aside the app is great for adding music onto pictures very easy to use and a great app all round I just don’t appreciate being lied to! Sort that out and it will be 5 stars

Creative and Easy

I tried 5 different apps before finding this one - easiest to use for upload/sizing photos/adding music and has the best transition templates. Took me less time to make a fully completed slideshow in this than it did to get my photos added to other apps.
