### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2026-02-21*

Been using this for indie features, commercial work, music videos, shorts, etc! Loving it, no timecode but that's ok, we got tentacles for that.

### 1/5 — Bricked

*2025-12-19*

After uploading a few custom slates, my slate has bricked and can no longer import any more images

### 1/5 — I would recommend more if

*2025-10-12*

We must have a way to fix some data on the slate and then just deal with writing the Takes. This is just a MUST… otherwise it’s just a $12 slate

### 2/5 — No room for editing

*2024-12-15*

Please make an update where you can edit text on the Slate Template. Not even able to download templates to add it ourselves.

### 2/5 — Can’t edit numbers or production title

*2024-12-03*

Why can’t I add text to the slate? I get that fake should be written in but production title and text in general should be much easier to add in the app
