Every time my phone screen locked I would have to restart the whole importing process from the beginning. Fast forwarding worked flawlessly until I had to watch an ad (understandably) but the app wouldn’t let me save the video after. I watched the ad and couldn’t close it afterwards so I can properly save the video after multiple attempts. Could be an amazing and simple app to use but it didn’t work for me sadly. ### 1/5 — Couldn’t even save one video *2021-11-26, version 1.0.1* I tried to speed up one 15 second video and this app couldn’t even save it. ### 1/5 — Glitchy *2021-10-14, version 1.0.1* Fast forward boomerang didn’t work once saved. Flashed a lot of bright light at me. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2021-07-22, version 1.0.1* App doesn’t work as intended. You simply cannot upload a video and fast forward it. There is no option to save the video (the export button is constantly greyed out and doesn’t work when you press it) The only thing functionally working in the app (besides the obvious ads that come with a free app) are the boomerang features. ### 1/5 — DOESNT WORK !!! *2021-07-03, version 1.0.1* Freee no in app purchases seams legit opens app things look to be as advertised, the I got to saving the video it makes you watch and add then you get an error say befor can’t be saved. And every retry is another add, this app is a scam so they can just make money off your add views ### 4/5 — Amazing! *2021-06-27, version 1.0.1* I needed an app to speed up a video of me recreating an oc and this app was the only one I could find that didn’t ask me to buy premium or something The only reason why I didn’t give it 5 starts is because it cut off a bit at the end of the video, but hopefully I can fix it ### 1/5 — Garbage. Doesn’t even import the video I choose *2021-05-03, version 1.0.1* Doesn’t even import the video I choose ### 1/5 — Would be great if it worked *2021-04-16, version 1.0.1* Error message every time I attempt to save a video. ### 1/5 — Ads *2020-12-05, version 1.0.1* You have to watch an ad until the time runs out “to get the reward” which I assume is the video, but then it doesn’t export and just says ‘error’. Even tried to click on the ad to see if that would then let me have the video but no luck 🙁 ### 1/5 — I can’t export videos *2020-11-23, version 1.0.1* It won’t let me exit the ads and it prevents me from exporting ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Used to work. But now doesn’t *2024-09-08, version 1.0.1* I use this for months and months and it worked great and was perfect. suddenly, I’m not able to get to the final step where it saves the video. Gives me a video saving error. so I’m uninstalling and going with a different app. I did try to contact support, but that link isn’t working. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2024-04-16, version 1.0.1* BOUGHT the app. It has ads and when I try to download my video it gives an error and I can’t. ### 1/5 — Took over an hour to import a movie and couldn’t save! *2023-07-25, version 1.0.1* Waste of time! ### 1/5 — Just a hotel advert *2023-06-12, version 1.0.1* Tried several times to edit a video. The app just freezes forever while it tricks you into watching some advert for a hotel. Total waste of time ### 1/5 — (PHPhotosErrorDomain error -1.) *2023-03-11, version 1.0.1* Won’t save videos error code in title ### 1/5 — “pHphotosErrorDomain error-1” *2022-09-01, version 1.0.1* If you try to download your video, the app makes you watch an ad then tells you “ “pHphotosErrorDomain error-1, unable to save video”. ### 1/5 — This app is terrible. *2022-07-07, version 1.0.1* Paid for nothing basically. Hasn’t worked, lots of bugs. Use another app, don’t waste your money. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work - ad trap! *2022-03-09, version 1.0.1* Don’t use, it doesn’t work, just wants your clicks! ### 1/5 — Completely unresponsive *2022-02-10, version 1.0.1* 3 minute video took a while to compress (understandable) while loading but then going to the fast forward section and non of the bottom buttons are responding at all ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2022-02-02, version 1.0.1* Throws up an error when trying to save the sped up video to photos, after having displayed the forced 20 second add. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Good job *2023-10-07, version 1.0.1* Easy, simple and free ### 5/5 — Wish I could donate *2023-05-25, version 1.0.1* A very simple app that serves your need, unlike any other overfancy & overchaged ones out there. Those apps don't even a trial to see if it meets your need or not. ### 5/5 — Nalgas *2023-05-21, version 1.0.1* Great free app . Just needed an app that can slow mo and fast forward my videos.
