### 5/5 — Great

Does exactly what you need. I especially appreciate that it syncs the timestamps!

### 5/5 — Excellent app

Works perfectly, can’t believe apple hasn’t solved this issue themselves

### 5/5 — Easy and helpful

Great app!

### 5/5 — As Expected

因为最高只有五颗

### 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.

### 5/5 — Why didn’t Apple do this?

*2025-10-28, version 0.9.0*

Great app that does what it’s intended to do!  Love it!

### 5/5 — Wonderfully simple

*2025-10-28, version 0.9.0*

Does one thing and does it well, would recommend. Free and no subscription like lots of apps these days to, thank you!

One suggestion, would be really useful to send video to the app from the share sheet.

### 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 — 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.

## Most praised reviews (8 highest-rated)

### 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.

### 5/5 — Frozen Frames

*2026-01-19, version 0.9.3*

I just downloaded the app and first impressions are good. Easy to use and just what I needed. Kudos and thanks to the developers!

### 5/5 — Incredible. How has Apple not included this feature in their Photos app!?

*2026-01-14, version 0.9.3*

Thanks to the wonderful dev for this free app with no ads. Truly a rarity these days! Does exactly what is needed and for free. Amazing ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
