Pleeeeaaase fix this app it's really fun. ### 3/5 — Was a good app. *2017-01-28, version 1.1* It was good! ### 3/5 — Won't load *2016-09-15, version 1.1* It is very neat and it works fine when I record, but it will not load any previously saved videos ### 2/5 — Uh... *2016-04-25, version 1.1* It was great and all until I spent the last two hours working on an edit only to be told I have to buy pro to upload it. This is a ripoff... Don't be one of those companies. Sorry. ### 3/5 — Good potential *2016-01-19, version 1.1* This app has very good potential. I like the effects and I couldn't find any other app that had the effects that this app does. Though it needs more work. I wanna be able to have way more effects without buying them and at least be able to re-size the effects. All in all, I see great potential in this app. ### 2/5 — CANNOT SAVE with free version *2015-12-24, version 1.1* Wasted way too much time with semi-entertaining but somewhat cheesy video effects only to find out there's no way to save or share the video I just made. ### 3/5 — Needs updated *2015-10-08, version 1.1* You can't change the size of the effect and the graphics are low quality and add more effects. ### 3/5 — Size🔬 *2015-08-18, version 1.1* You should be able to change the size of the fx ### 3/5 — Cool *2015-06-23, version 1.1* It's very cool but you can only have 15 seconds which isn't enough time for a lot of people to make a video ### 3/5 — Could be 5 *2015-03-28, version 1.1* Only 15 sec video time. No where near enough time for video. Should have a minimum of 2 1/2 min. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — No camera access *2019-09-13, version 1.1* Just downloaded this app and purchased the .99 pro version. It does not access the camera nor allows videos or pics to be uploaded. ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2018-12-10, version 1.1* I can’t film or use a video from my camera roll!! ### 1/5 — Not maintained *2018-12-04, version 1.1* This app is not being maintained, it has issues that cause it to be inoperable. Including: no access to camera or files on phone. ### 1/5 — Fake! *2018-11-24, version 1.1* This app is fake because it doesn’t even work. ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2018-01-02, version 1.1* I downloaded this app to edit photos for an Instagram account I have. I downloaded this app, thinking that it had great effects. I opened the app and selected the video I wished to edit and he app randomly closed. I tried it a few times with the same outcome. I redid the video, this time the app did not close, but would not let me edit past the “crop” station. I really wish I would use this app. Disappointed. ### 1/5 — Crap *2016-02-09, version 1.1* I don't recommend this app it's just straight up crap ### 1/5 — this is trash don't buy it *2015-11-04, version 1.1* I pay for this and is not working this people have to give me my money back 😡😡😡not good what they do ### 1/5 — Why? *2015-09-12, version 1.1* This app has very low quality editing and you need to pay to save it on your camera? I could do that for free on iMovie. This app does not live up to expectations. ### 1/5 — You can't export *2015-07-12, version 1.1* You have to buy the full version to use it! That's annoying considering it limits the things you can do and you can't even save it! ### 1/5 — Too many bugs. App is not ready. *2015-06-28, version 1.1* This is a very cool idea and has great potential but it is so bugged that the videos often don't work in the final. The videos flip over, the special effects reverse and sometimes the screen goes red. I do not recommend buying this until these problems are addressed. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — LOVE ❤️ IT!!! *2017-07-18, version 1.1* It's a good app if u want to put effects like for musically and it's free that's the awesome part I'll give you 5 stars u deserve more than that!!!🆕🆒🆓APP ### 5/5 — 20/10 IGN *2017-01-22, version 1.1* Would use again ### 5/5 — Great potential *2017-01-08, version 1.1* App is great, use it often, but please allow slow motion and stop motion support!
