Totally fine, but after watching the ad nothing happens… watched 5 ads and app never compressed my video. Deleted ### 1/5 — Annoying Ads that won’t go away! *2025-08-15, version 1.1.0* Has to be one of the most annoying apps that will keep popping ads on your face. You can monetize the free version in an ELEGANT, SIMPLER way! ### 1/5 — Does not work with Iphon 16 *2024-10-27* It says the operation cannot be completed even in the full version ### 1/5 — Problema com assinatura *2024-09-02, version 1.0.9* Não assinei nesse aplicativo e já apareceu duas faturas no meu cartão, quero cancelar e também quero retorno do dinheiro ### 1/5 — Needs access to ALL photos *2023-08-10, version 1.0.9* Never have I had an app not let me only select singular access to specific photos/video.

A complete mf scam and although the app functioned properly, I still think it’s horrible purely based on the developers ### 1/5 — إلغاء العضوية *2023-01-05, version 1.0.8* الرجاء إلغاء العضوية واسترجاع المبلغ ### 1/5 — خدعه *2022-10-23, version 1.0.7* التطبيق لا يعمل ### 1/5 — Müll *2022-05-22, version 1.0.6* Zugeraten Start müssen 5 Sterne zur Funktion vergeben werden, danach kann die App einfach nichts. Video wird ins Nirvana komprimiert… ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — They said *2026-04-15, version 1.1.1* They said if I give 5 stars I get unlimited ### 5/5 — Clutch *2026-01-27, version 1.1.1* I needed a video compressed asap for an audition and this app was clutch.
