Garbage ! Avoid at all costs ### 1/5 — Garbage *2018-07-26* Forces subscription purchase before you can even use it. Deleted with malice aforethought. ### 1/5 — 😡 *2018-07-16* No Free 4,99$ ### 1/5 — Not Free... Pay To Use It *2018-06-21* Free to download, but you have to pay to use it. I'm pretty tired of these app developers being dishonest and continuing to be able to do business. ### 1/5 — Avoid at all costs *2018-06-19* When I first loaded up the app it gave me a 30 second long add and then re-directed me to the subscription page. There was no way to get past that page, there was no “use app free” option it was only “try trial free” or “buy now” options. I really just Ed wanted a quick and easy app to use but nowadays that’s impossible. If you want and app to make GIFs avoid this one! I don’t know how this app has 4.5 stars when it forces you to buy a subscription. ### 1/5 — tricksy advertising *2018-06-09* twice i was tricked into clicking on an advertisement. sorry, i cannot support an app that does this. Uninstalled. ### 1/5 — Scam *2017-11-17* Riddled with adds that overlay so you click before use. Confusing interface to access gallery. Avoid. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — What a big rip off *2019-09-01* If I could give it a minus score I would, it’s just a waste of band width, if you do get duped into downloading make sure you cancel before you get charged, I don’t know exactly what it’s meant to do, it doesn’t even allow you to edit your photos never mind add anything like text- apple get this off the App Store to stop it ripping anyone else off ### 1/5 — Scam. *2019-06-08* Scam. Can’t find where to cancel. What a waste. ### 1/5 — SCAM!!! *2019-05-01* You will not be able to use this app unless you agree to a 3-day trial submitting your payment information! This app is DEFINITELY NOT FREE!!! Just a scam! ### 1/5 — This is not free *2019-04-18* £3.99 a month? You taking the Gif? ### 1/5 — Spam. Bait and switch. *2019-04-16* Just read the rest of the reviews. This app is ridiculous. Can’t even make a move without them trying to get your money one way or another. Avoid at all cost. ### 1/5 — Bit of a con *2019-04-16* Claims to be a free app then won’t let you use it unless you sign up to a subscription, sorry but no one will use a GIF maker enough to justify a subscription. Deleted. ### 1/5 — Misleading *2019-04-16* Free in App Store but can’t even open without agreeing to be charged weekly to use the app with a free 3 day trail, not even a 1 time fee to buy it but 4.99 per week! Too expensive in my opinion. ### 1/5 — Carful! *2019-04-16* They will start charging you $7.49 PER WEEK after three days!!! That’s $750 in less than two years! ### 1/5 — Scam *2018-11-26* Doesn’t work. And you can’t cancel. Don’t use this app I wouldn’t even it give one star but you can’t give NEGATIVE ### 1/5 — Ridiculous! *2018-10-28* Can’t even try the app before they direct you to a subscription page. Too many other GIF apps out there that don’t try to sell to you in a deceptive manner. Don’t waste your time! ## Most praised reviews (3 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — تحت التجربه *2020-08-10* جاري تنزيل البرنامج ### 3/5 — Meh *2021-03-05* This app is okay. It works fine with video but as soon as I open anything else or try to use live images it crashes and the app takes a few attempts to reopen ### 2/5 — Ads too disruptive *2017-11-19* I tried, really, I did... but each time I took a video or a timelapse, an ad popped up. Sometimes a video ad I couldn’t dismiss, and it was too much. This app is unusable because ADS. INTRUDE. AFTER. EACH. ACTION. AND. IT. DROVE. ME. CRAZY. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
