### 2/5 — Make it easier!!!

*2022-11-19, version 6.6*

I’ve been using this app for years. It’s a good app if you know how to use it and have an ounce of creative bone in your body. Butttt! You guys need to make it easier to save the videos on to your phone. It’s a messs around trying to save a simple 3sec video??!! It’s not that hard!

### 2/5 — Import from photo library doesn’t work

*2022-10-26, version 6.5.1*

Has potential but no feedback to what I’m doing wrong here?

### 4/5 — Not working on new iOS

*2022-10-21, version 6.5.1*

The app is not currently working to record video. This appears to have been since the the newest iOS 16 update. Can this please be corrected ASAP.

### 1/5 — Huh??

*2021-09-23, version 6.5.1*

I still haven’t a clue what this thing is.

### 1/5 — Cost not justified

*2021-06-03, version 6.5.1*

Buy a video editor or similar and pay less, then create absolutely anything. Vote with your wallet and kill the subscription greed.

### 2/5 — Vollkommen überteuert!

*2021-05-26*

Die App funktioniert einwandfrei und ist einfach zu Bedienen. Aber um das Wasserzeichen zu entfernen, muss man die Vollversion kaufen. Der Preis dafür beträgt aber 100€ oder man schließt ein monatliches Abonnement(14€/Monat) ab. Ich finde 100€ für eine App mehr als unangebracht und rate daher vom Download ab.

### 3/5 — Can't upgrade to premium

*2021-04-26, version 6.5.1*

When i try to upgrade to premium, it says iTunes is not available. What should i do?

### 2/5 — How Much!!

*2021-04-01, version 6.5.1*

On a technical and development level, this is a stunning App and I'd love to use......

BUT on a subscription, pricing level (£180.00 per year), you're way off and it's out of the reach of most average users.  Adobe's CC on a per App basis is cheaper and I don't pay extra to use on different platforms!

### 1/5 — Overcharged and overadvertised

*2021-03-26, version 6.5.1*

There are a lot of 'reviews' and ads comparing Plotagraph and this one, that make this one look to have much better results. I have used both, the ads are BS. Plotograoh was miles ahead last time I used it. On top of which, the prices associated with this app are ludicrous.

### 1/5 — Viel zu teuer

*2021-03-06*

330 Euro für eine Einzellizenz? No way.

Ich habe Cinemagraph für macOS zweimal gekauft. Einmal die erste Version und die, die man nach dem Redesign nochmal kaufen musste. Aber die Version hier fürs iPado ist einfach nur Wucher. Gute Software kostet Geld, weiß man, aber für das, was Cinemagraph bietet, stimmt das Preis/Leistungsverhältnis einfach nicht.

### 1/5 — Waste of time.

*2021-01-10, version 6.5.1*

After spending hours trying to get it to work I find it doesn’t export the finished product. The only way I get to see it is in the app. What a waste and I have to say the greed factor on this is way over the top.

### 1/5 — Great App, but

*2020-11-25, version 6.5*

I paid for this app some time ago, when there was no monthly subscription. Then without warning I went to open the app and found out I needed to pay for it again and again. This was unfair to everyone who paid for this app before the subscription, and just goes to show this company oils care less about it users.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2020-10-10, version 6.5*

May be good but doesn’t even take a picture without crashing.

### 1/5 — Paid for already

*2026-05-27, version 2026.17*

I paid for this and now they are charging another fee. I think yall have forgotten we in the US is in the beginning stages of a recession.

### 1/5 — Paid for already

*2026-05-22, version 2026.17*

I paid for this and now they are charging another fee.

### 1/5 — It’s a scam please read

*2023-05-09, version 6.6*

This is a gimmicky app worth maybe a one time purchase of $20-$30. Not $200-$300 a year or $15 a month. 
That being said, there are more 1 star reviews here than 5 (which look ridiculously fake) and yet they have a 4.6 rating. I don’t buy it for a second. Also people who have previously purchased the app before it was a subscription are being told to pay again. 
Those that got scammed, go to the bottom here and click 
“Report a problem” and complain to Apple

### 1/5 — Forces creating account

*2023-04-22, version 6.6*

So they can spam you I’m sure.

### 1/5 — Looks tricky

*2023-04-19, version 6.6*

I bought the monthly plan thinking it will add more advanced learning on cinemagraph pro but it has not. I’m disappointed for paying $20 for something I already learnt free in the app. I did get blendeo in the new subscrbut I expected more tutorials in cinemagraph. It has tricked me into paying basically.

### 1/5 — Robbed me of my app

*2022-12-16, version 6.6*

Don’t get this app unless you want them to change the rules on you, and steal your purchase!!  I bought this stupid thing years back!!  Rarely use it.  Now???  I have to buy it again!???!   I DON’T need NOR want a stupid, update pro version (the only option now?!)  So they rob me of my full plain Jane, working version I owned, trying to force me to update into a more expensive and/or into a subscription I don’t want.   I know as soon as I update it - the thing will be crippled even more.  GEEZE!! But  I can’t even access my photos as it is anyway!!  Only videos.  What good is that??!!!  It was to animate stills!!!   So what do you do with an obsolete, insane, controlling developer & app?  DELETE IT!!  Just avoid it all together - skip this thing.

### 1/5 — Ios16 update?

*2022-10-14, version 6.5.1*

No more update? Documents cant be imported anymore was this product discontinued

### 1/5 — Interesting idea taken too far

*2022-04-22, version 6.5.1*

Its a good idea and looks cool. The app is good BUT the company behind it is only after money. The app was expensive - very - and now its free with a huge watermark unless you pax a subscription fee. They just let people hanging who bought the app. 
The idea is great and looks cool but its a novelty that wears off quickly. Would not recommend anything from them.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2021-11-26, version 6.5.1*

I downloaded the Cinemagraph Pro app and it stated that I would have a seven day free trial and will be charged after seven days the app developer charged me 1999 immediately and refuses to refund my money it states nowhere that I would be charged 1999 before the seven day trial these people just want to try to get your money do not download this app if you don’t want to be cheated out of 1999

### 1/5 — Useless app without subscription !

*2021-10-23, version 6.5.1*

The watermark is outright horrendous.. i immediately deleted the App

### 5/5 — Holidays discount needed:) (Seriously)

*2025-11-20, version 2025.40*

Please introduce holiday discount. With Kind Regards~

### 5/5 — Very unique app

*2025-03-03, version 6.7*

I’ve been using this app for about 2 years now and it is definitely a game changer, that’s why it gets a 5 star rating from me

### 5/5 — The only cinemagraph worth owning.

*2022-11-16, version 6.6*

Still my goto app for making loops, quick video edits and of course cinemagraphs.

### 5/5 — Kid in a candy store !

*2021-07-28, version 6.5.1*

I love this app! 
Broad range of tools to really let your creative horses run free. 
Remember when you were a kid and “Playing” was a thing ? 
This app lets me unleash my inner kid !
