I started creating podcast clips to help me study my notes and screenshots of slides. Also kinda fun to just hear a random podcast about my Apple notes or random food or friend photos. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — No free clip options *2025-12-16, version 2.1.2* After trying a variety of options (1 vs 2 speakers, typing vs links, length, style) - there is no possible way to create a free clip. I am constantly prompted to purchase a subscription to utilize. There is no free trial so this is high risk. I’d rather use notebookLM which is completely free and customizable. ### 1/5 — No Free Trial *2025-10-11, version 2.1.2* This app looked really promising, but they don’t even allow you a free podcast to create to even see if you like it before purchasing- you have to purchase right away. I was disappointed about that because I’m not going to pay for something like this without trying it first. ### 1/5 — Must Pay - Expensive *2025-04-13, version 2.0.9* You can only create one 3 minute clip before having to pay. £7 weekly ? ### 1/5 — 没有办法订阅很奇怪 *2025-02-12* 其他所有都可以，但是你们的app卸装了很多次始终不成功，能教教我怎么做吗 ### 1/5 — Bugs say are fixed are not *2025-02-09, version 1.6.1* App still crashes. Even though says fixed in app description. Don't believe. Don't buy. ### 1/5 — Garbage, doesn’t open or function *2025-01-13, version 1.6.1* At first it worked ok, though the program often would have trouble creating a podcast and I’d have to re-do it. Lately it doesn’t even open. I tap the app and it opens and immediately closes. This is what you get for A $70 ANNUAL SUBSCRIPTION. Don’t purchase, it’s a waste of money. ### 1/5 — Scam app *2024-12-17, version 1.6.1* not real notebook lm app, not free ### 1/5 — Not working *2024-10-24* It just keeps freezing up. Haven’t been able to create a podcast with it. Also doesn’t look like it’s actually using NotebookLM **Developer response:** Hi, apologies for the issues - I'd love to help figure out what's wrong and offer a free subscription. Feel free to email hi@mep.sh and mention this review. You're right that it currently does not use NotebookLM, but if/once Google offers an API then I will integrate it. I'm actively working on improving ClipsLM and am open to all feedback. Thanks!  - Spencer ### 2/5 — It works but can’t send files *2025-02-16, version 2.0.1* It pretty much does what it says at least for what I need, which is from PDFs to audio, but when I try to upload a file to my drive only half of it uploads. Same when I try to email it to myself. The app support link doesn’t work so here I am. Does anyone have any thought on what I can do to fix this? ### 2/5 — German: Not good. *2025-01-15* Leider nur gut in Englisch. In Deutsch passieren Wortfehler: das Wort mit wird in Einzelbichstaben MIT ausgesprochen. Bindestriche werden als Minuszeichen mitgesprochen und Zahlen kommen in Englisch daher. Das ist sehr schade. Sonst tolles Tool. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — The best study app *2025-03-03, version 2.0.4* Couldn’t get through all my reading without Clippit !! ### 5/5 — Useful & fun *2025-02-11* Making learning on the go both easy and fun, it’s great for multitaskers! Also love that I can choose the style of podcast I want :) ### 5/5 — Great app *2025-02-11, version 2.0.0* So useful ### 5/5 — So useful *2025-02-11, version 2.0.0* So useful for breaking down and listening to long written articles when I’m commuting or on a run! ### 5/5 — This app is about my favorite, but their is one problem *2025-01-28, version 1.6.1* I love this app so much!!! It's so easy to take photos of your notes and chose what voice you want, and that's why I gave it 5 stars. My only problem is that I can't buy stuff on apps, and I can only do one, and have to wait a full 24 hours till I can do another one, and I wa hoping to use your app in all my classes, but that could take a couple weeks because I have to wait a day. But other than money wise, you app is so amazing, and I would totally recommended it!!! I hope that you and your app does a great job, and you all deserve it!!! ### 5/5 — Fascinating outcome *2025-01-14, version 1.6.1* Wrote a blog with mixed Chinese and English about becoming grandpa, turned to podcasts, one version in Chinese, another in English. It is a Wow experience. ### 5/5 — great ui *2024-11-18, version 1.4.9* such a simple experience, add sources and get clips! useful to go back and re-listen as well ### 5/5 — Buena aplicación *2024-11-02* Tiene algunas mejoras con los anuncios pero hay que reconocer que la versión libre está muy conseguida. ### 5/5 — I love this app, but there’s one problem *2024-10-14, version 1.1.3* This one issue is that you can only create one for free, which is kind of illegal in my eyes. You can also have us watch an advertisement so that we can create a podcast. ### 5/5 — What I’ve been looking for *2024-10-07, version 1.0* Really useful to turn class reading or otherwise monotonous text into an easier medium. My new go to for making the most of my commute or other idle time! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
