### 1/5 — Not Good Yet

*2026-08-07*

It does not know how to capture your faces that has no quality

### 1/5 — Support

*2026-07-13*

Support email on app doesn’t work.  App frozen while creating video and lost 2k credits.

### 1/5 — Junk

*2026-02-24*

Gave it a complete full detailed script and it still couldn’t get the video right, absolutely ridiculous then after buying the 500 credits to make the video it wants another almost 500 to generate it trash.!!!!!

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback. The lower-cost video models are designed to use fewer credits but can sometimes produce visual artifacts, especially with longer or more complex scripts. For better results, we recommend trying one of the advanced video models in the app, which generally produce higher-quality and more consistent videos.
