### 5/5 — One out of a hundred

*2025-12-16*

I've had smart phones for about twenty years now, and have been into AV editing as a hobbyist for about eight years. There have been many apps...It's so incredibly rare to find one that has the features you're looking for to accomplish what's needed. It's always a process of elimination, and can be a real crapshoot. This app is a cut above. It was someone's baby. They created and cared for it meticulously. Smooth. Minimalist. Intuitive. Beautiful. This is the nicest app I've used in years. Well done.

**Developer response:** Many thanks! If you have any good feature requests, please let me know!

### 5/5 — top of the top

*2025-12-14*

thanks, great app!

### 5/5 — Love it

*2025-12-14, version 0.9.3*

Straight forward and simple, works great, love it. Would gladly pay a buck or two for purchase. I despise subscription apps, and am pleased to see some truly free apps that work awesome.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2025-12-10, version 0.9.3*

Stumbled upon this app from Reddit and it’s everything I need, works wonders!

### 5/5 — It’s good app but

*2025-12-04*

It’s a very helpful app, but my screen preview of video is very small on interface on my phone , i do not why

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2025-11-23, version 0.9.3*

Superb App!

### 5/5 — Just what’s needed

*2025-11-16, version 0.9.3*

This app fills a deep gap in the Apple photos ecosystem. The simple act of selecting a frame from a video becomes a joy.

### 5/5 — Top

*2025-11-16, version 0.9.3*

funziona bene

### 5/5 — What a app!

*2025-11-11, version 0.9.3*

Good app, thank you, bro❤️

### 5/5 — Helpful app!

*2025-11-08*

This app is very helpful for extracting frames from .mov files. I really like its clean and minimalist design. That being said, I have two suggestions for improvement:

1. It can't import videos directly from a folder, which is a bit inconvenient.
2. The extracted images have a slight color hue difference compared to the original video.

Overall, it's a great and useful app. Thank you, Bas!

**Developer response:** Thanks for the review, it is great to see people enjoying my little app. If I can find some time I will look into improving the app even more with your suggestions!

### 5/5 — Golden Standard of Util Apps

*2025-10-31, version 0.9.2*

Does exactly what it sets out to do and nothing more - awesome. And to top it off, the new UI is gorgeous, too.

### 1/5 — I bought him a coffee

*2025-10-19, version 0.8.5*

I used to love but i t got more and more complicated and now it doesn't even work. Where does the photo go after i push the button i have no idea!

### 1/5 — Didn’t Work

*2025-04-06, version 0.1.0*

Took forever to load a one minute video. Unclear if due to my error, will change review if needed

### 3/5 — Strange Share Sheet/capture button behavior

*2025-05-31*

Tapping the Share Sheet/capture button doesn’t save the preview, rather just shows a white flash. Long pressing it invokes the Share Sheet itself though, which from there I can save the photo.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the review, I will look into it!

### 4/5 — Great for free

*2026-03-31*

So it’s awesome because I can extract multiple freeze frames out of a video directly on my phone, it correctly saves the EXIF and GPS metadata to each photo, and the choosing function already filters to videos only. I seem to be able to do this for free with multiple videos, so I’m happy.

What’s not so great or that the buttons keep disappearing as I use it, the menu is a little weird, and the progress bar is both a little too opaque to see image details through and the slider gets stuck at the end so I can’t drag it back into the middle somewhere.

### 4/5 — Wanna hv a start/stop button

*2025-12-06, version 0.9.3*

Good app thanks

### 4/5 — excellent

*2025-08-20, version 0.8.0*

straightforward without tricks. good quality output. simple controls

### 4/5 — Good app but needs batch export feature

*2025-06-24*

It’s a good app and works exactly as described; however, will be a great app if we could batch export frames. For instance, I have a 3D walk-cycle animation I made but wanted to get the frames from the clip (50 of them) so I can make a hand drawn 2D animation, and had to individually save each frame and number them. Tedious. If you add export multiple frames as a premium feature, you have a guaranteed buyer (Me!) lol. Even if it’s just a pay-once-and-done, I’ll buy it.

**Developer response:** That’s a great feature! I’ll work on it if I find some time. Thanks for the review! Feel free to send me an email if you have more ideas.

### 4/5 — Awesome, but….

*2025-04-18, version 0.1.3*

Great app for analysis of videos for animation, but if there was an option to step through frame by frame rather than using the slider, it would be amazing.

### 5/5 — life saver for concerts!

*2026-08-17*

i mostly take vids during concerts so i love how this gives me the option of having hq pics of what i capture as well. i also like how the pics save w the accurate time stamps, i didn’t expect that and was pleasantly surprised. been using it for all my bts concert vids (thanks twitter) and i rly like it so far!

### 5/5 — Finally !

*2026-08-06*

Just does the job !

## Most praised reviews (8 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2026-06-29*

Exactly what I was looking for, no weird add ons or extra things to figure out . Was easy to understand

### 5/5 — A model app

*2026-05-31, version 1.0.0*

A rare find: a useful tool, well executed and ad free. Does exactly what I needed it to without over complicating things.

### 5/5 — Really great app

*2026-05-13*

Has all the features one needs from frame exporter app. I wish I could select different video with one tap rather than two though 😅

**Developer response:** Done! In the next update (0.10.2) there will be a new button to select a different video with a single tap. I’m glad you are enjoying the app!

### 5/5 — Brilliant. Does what it says on the tin!

*2026-05-05, version 0.9.3*

I am not one for leaving comments in reviews, but this definitely deserves one. I came across a post by the author on Reddit stating they created an app to solve a problem that another one went paid. This app is brilliant. Does one thing, extremely well.

### 5/5 — Must-have for GoPro / Drone Photo Grabs

*2026-03-02*

I’m always surprised that even big name apps lack a basic frame-by-frame jog control and photo extraction. This app does exactly what you would expect and helps me get the exact frames I need from my dog leaping into the air

### 5/5 — Simple and effective.

*2026-02-21*

App is well designed. Simple and intuitive interface. Works as expected.

### 5/5 — Simple, superb app

*2026-02-06*

Does exactly what it says it is going to do, helped me get what I needed in fifteen seconds

### 5/5 — Works great

*2026-01-29, version 0.9.3*

Easy to use, free, does a good job. This app is exactly what I needed.
