I LOVE the Afterlight PHOTO editing app!! Thought this video app would be great too but it’s lacking soooo much. It hasn’t been updated in over 2 years! Really sucks! Wish that the photo app just allowed video import and id be happy. They literally make by far the best film photo editing but then fall so flat with the video side of things ://

Exporting from this app darkens any video you edit. No settings to fix this.
