Eメールでより詳しい説明とともに使用した動画、使用したiPhone機器、iOSバージョンを教えていただければ、より迅速に問題を把握して修正することができると思います。 お手数ですが、ご連絡をお待ちしております。 何卒、よろしくお願いします ありがとうございます。 参考までに、現在iPhoneのストレージ容量が十分でない場合、FPSを変更する際に衝突が発生する可能性があります。 最小1GB以上の空き容量があるかを確認して、もし空き容量がない状態であれば、もう少し多くのスペースを確保した後、再度試してみてください。 また、iPhoneの電源を完全に終了してから再起動させてもいいでしょう。 開いているアプリが多い場合、FPSを変更する際に使用するメモリがなく衝突することがありますので、メモリを確保するために開いている他のアプリは終了してください。 ### 4/5 — Simple and beautiful *2026-08-10, version 6.7.1* I love ImgPlay gif maker because it is simple and that makes it a beautiful app. No complications, creates a gift quickly with high-quality and no extras features to waste my time. ### 2/5 — Now broken *2026-07-15, version 6.6.0* I’ll update this review once it’s fixed. GIF search no longer works. The download process fails because the Tenor API has been discontinued. ### 2/5 — Decent, but nothing special unless you’re willing to pay. *2026-07-10, version 6.6.0* It works and that’s about the best i can say for it. if you want to do anything other than turn an image or video into a gif (ie adding multiple layers, stickers, etc) you need to pay. if you don’t want an ugly watermark on your gif, you have to either pay or screen record the gif and upload it to a seperate gif website. all in all, i’m not a fan. ### 5/5 — Great app! *2026-06-29* Suggestion: crop - circle frame! **Developer response:** Thank you for your suggestion! You can already create a circular frame by selecting the Circle option in the Canvas feature in ImgPlay. We truly appreciate your feedback and will continue working to make the app even better. Thank you for using ImgPlay. ### 4/5 — Makes gifs… what else is there to say? *2026-06-11, version 6.6.0* Slightly annoyed with the bombardment of ads ### 4/5 — Good app, somewhat buggy *2026-06-04, version 6.6.0* iOS, When selecting an item to turn into a GIF from my library I am only able to see the most recent 25 or so items. Scrolling through my camera roll is not possible. It is a hassle to find any item past a few days old. ### 5/5 — SO SIMPLE *2026-06-02, version 6.6.0* Love it ### 5/5 — Stop motion *2026-05-20, version 6.6.0* This is the perfect app to edit my stop motion projects. I love this app so much. It’s so worth it! ### 5/5 — ImgPlay is the best app *2026-05-18, version 6.6.0* I love this app very much!!!😍 ### 5/5 — Gud *2026-05-15, version 6.6.0* Gud ### 5/5 — It’s good *2026-05-11, version 6.6.0* It’s good ### 5/5 — Amazing app *2026-05-09, version 6.6.0* Works incredible! Best app ever! ### 3/5 — Eigentlich sehr gut, aber… *2026-05-05* Ich arbeite schon einige Zeit. Mit dem Programm und finde es sehr gut und auch sehr intuitiv. Eigentlich bin ich wirklich begeistert kann aber nur 3 Sterne geben, da es eine wesentliche Schwäche hat. Das Programm wird immer größer! Um so öfter man es benutzt um so größer wird es. Es fängt mit rund 300MB an und im laufe der Zeit wächst es auf mehrere GB. Man kann alle Projekte löschen und den Cache leeren, der Platz bleibt belegt. Das einzige was hilft ist die App zu löschen und wieder zu installieren. Erst danach ist der Speicher wieder frei. Dieses verhalten finde ich so schwerwiegend das ich leider 3 Sterne geben kann. **Developer response:** Hallo, vielen Dank, dass Sie uns kontaktiert haben. Es tut uns leid, dass Ihnen Unannehmlichkeiten entstanden sind. Könnten Sie uns bitte mitteilen, wie Sie Ihre Dateien in ImgPlay importiert haben? Wenn Sie die Originaldateien aus der Dateien-App importieren, kann der Speicherbedarf höher ausfallen, da die Originaldateien zwischengespeichert werden können. Falls sich die App-Größe jedoch auch nach dem Löschen des Caches und der Projekte nicht verringert, kontaktieren Sie uns bitte über Hilfe > Kontakt in der ImgPlay-App und teilen Sie uns mit, wie groß der Speicherbedarf ungefähr wird. Bitte senden Sie uns außerdem Ihr Gerätemodell, Ihre iOS-Version, die ImgPlay-Version sowie einen Screenshot der ImgPlay-Speichernutzung in den iPhone-Einstellungen. Wir werden dies genauer prüfen. Vielen Dank. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Has been app *2026-08-05, version 6.7.1* Used to be a constant tool of mine. Now there are adds and pay to use features. Literally just leaving this review before I delete it from my library so others don’t bother. ### 1/5 — Somethings weird *2026-07-16, version 6.6.0* It used to work pretty alright a little grainy, but now it doesn’t even let me export just a picture of a girl putting her hands on her mouth and a bunch of words I don’t got time to read and check marks pop up pretty annoying ### 1/5 — Awful *2026-07-16, version 6.6.0* Impossible to navigate. Extremely convoluted even just to load photos, videos, gifs or go from a project to the home screen. ### 1/5 — inconsistent speeds throughout gif *2026-07-03, version 6.6.0* Used to work very well. Not gifs will randomly speed up and slow down in random places. ### 1/5 — needs improvement asap *2026-05-23, version 6.6.0* for what imgplay is i'm disaapojyed 1 star because when you select a video the slider/scrubbing bar is SO BAD its almost unusable. I'm not sure why it's at the complete top of the screen either? The fast scrubbing being directly underneath the regular scrubbing is by far the worst design choice IT NEEDS to be changed and separated ASAP. There is countless times where I have a perfect selection just to move it hundreds of frames away from that spot because of the fast scrubbing bar. It's happened to often that I know others have that issue. I keep seeing updates for this app but none of the bugs or issues ever get fixed? I'll name a few right now When you crop after rotating the video it'll automatically crops out of view and you have to reset or move it. (been a bug for over a year) Another bug is the videos taking absolutely forever to load or won't load at all. Some days this isn't even an issues. I know that can be icloud, but this was never an issue previously and it happens with regular videos on my phone too. When you're editing frames sometimes when you're done it'll go back to the default layout from what you have selected (full, half or quarter) , i've wasted SO much time tinkering the frames to be perfect and BOOM i click done and it goes back to where it was. The app just isn't really worth the pro version and I wish i could go back to the original version without the frame cropping or loading issues... ### 1/5 — Does not work for Youtube *2026-05-07, version 6.6.0* Does not allow for using Youtube videos to make GIFs even though the App store ad says it does. ### 1/5 — Cobrança indevida *2026-04-10* Péssimo app, cliquei no teste gratuito e fui cobrado! Ainda por cima não tem onde entrar em contato com suporte para contestar! **Developer response:** Obrigado por entrar em contato. Se você foi cobrado mesmo após selecionar o teste gratuito, isso pode ocorrer por alguns motivos: o teste gratuito do ImgPlay está disponível apenas no plano anual, enquanto os planos semanal ou mensal são cobrados imediatamente; o teste gratuito só pode ser usado uma vez por conta, e se já tiver sido utilizado anteriormente, a assinatura paga começa automaticamente; além disso, se o cancelamento não for feito pelo menos 24 horas antes do término do período de teste, a assinatura é renovada automaticamente como paga. Informamos também que pagamentos e reembolsos são gerenciados exclusivamente pela App Store, portanto não podemos processar o reembolso diretamente. Pedimos, por gentileza, que solicite o reembolso através do suporte da App Store. ### 1/5 — えー泣 *2026-03-31* 背景透過するのに課金必要なの？泣 他のアプリ探そーっと。残念。 **Developer response:** フィードバックをお寄せいただきありがとうございます。背景透過機能が有料である点についてご不便をおかけしていること、十分に理解しております。ご意見をお聞かせいただき、心より感謝いたします。この機能は、より高度な編集機能をご提供するため、Proプランの一部として提供しております。今後も皆さまのご意見を参考にしながら、より良い体験をご提供できるよう改善に努めてまいります。ありがとうございました。 ### 1/5 — sucks *2026-03-30, version 6.5.3* cant even add our own gifs to customize? ridiculous bro ### 1/5 — Watermark *2026-03-28, version 6.5.3* Used to be great, but now i am told i have to subscribe to something i rarely use to remove the watermark. So essentaily I am just throwing you free money. Ill find an ai to do it locally on my pc thanks. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — 使いやすい🩷 *2026-09-01* シンプルで良い。必要な機能だけ入ってて、操作も簡単。 ### 5/5 — Number 1 Gif Maker *2026-08-29, version 6.7.2* These updates are great! The Ai resolution along with GIF dithering and you can set it to 15 mb and it looks great. ### 5/5 — Great GIF Maker! *2026-08-24, version 6.7.2* I love this app. I like taking a series of photos (often of ocean waves) and putting them together as a gif, and this app does the job well. It’s so easy to use that I don’t hesitate to open it and use it. The user interface is simple, and the adjustments are a breeze. ### 5/5 — Superb gif maker *2026-08-23, version 6.7.2* Best gif-making app out there. Easy-to-use interface, great editing tools and export options, and you can easily limit which video or photo files the app can access. I would give this app 6 stars if I could, it’s one of my all-time favorite apps. ### 5/5 — Gracias imgplay *2026-08-20, version 6.7.2* Es muy buena literalmente cumple con lo q dice además no te obliga a pagar so esta en mi top ### 5/5 — Go to tool for years! *2026-08-14, version 6.7.1* I've been using this app for years now and it's never let me down. ### 5/5 — tickling *2026-08-08, version 6.7.1* can you please have sound please ### 5/5 — Lo amo! *2026-08-07, version 6.7.1* Uso esto para editar videos, y para ponerles textos dinámicos a fotos, convertirlas en gif, es divertido y muy fácil de usar ❤️ ### 5/5 — This app will always be on my phone😎 *2026-07-27, version 6.7.0* One of my go to collection of apps, easy and quick to use… keep the updates and improvements coming’ always looking forward to new features🙌🏾 Wait a minute, an Audio voice over feature is needed… we shouldn’t need to be going to a separate app to add music or audio that’s on my device. A custom ration layout maker would be nice as well👏 Update: the crop feature works great thank you for it. I’m so used to working in the Transparent Background mode, that I haven’t noticed it. I did notice this tho.. the CROP feature doesn’t appear, when starting off in the Transparent Background’ which would be great fully helpful. ### 5/5 — Suddenly my gifs are not working *2026-07-12, version 6.6.0* I’ve Bern happily using this app as my main media source , and suddenly , a few days ago, it stopped working !!
