Request update for indigo to support iOS 17

Request to update indigo to support iOS 17. Many users have the same needs as me. Thank you very much.

Underrated alternative

I just tried this and hands down, best alternative to CapCut, VN Editor, and other apps that use a paywall to use basic features. You don’t have to pay SQUAT! 😁 Like someone said though I also hope they don’t add a subscription feature later on but with Adobe being a part of it, I doubt it’s gonna happen.
I can hone my editing skills without people finding me! 😎

Perfect, please keep up the good work

Just what I needed, it's perfect, no adds, no watermark, completely free, so please I'm just asking one thing. KEEP IT UP this way. 😭❤️

So Far So Good

I’ve started using this in replace of CapCut. It’s not a 100% substitute yet but it’s perfect for editing on the go

FEEDBACK - PLEASE LISTEN

It would be amazing to see more animations/transition effects added—specifically ones that are commonly used in edits for social media. this would certainly expand the app to a wider gen z audience!

Thank you for making this app free and allowing everyone the opportunity to be creative without limits.

This app being free is huge

I need an ad free simple video editor for music stuff, this is epic. Could use more features but free is winning

SO GOOD AND FREE!!

i just made the switch from capcut bc i’ve been making more short form content and capcut has been slowly putting everything behind a paywall. So i found this alternative on reddit, and it was all the features i use on capcut for free!!

What a mess

Spent 12-hours editing video, (v1.32) only to watch the export hang at 97%. Tried multiple iterations with no clue what's wrong.
Worse, there is NO support available. Their listing here mentions using the in-app support for help, but it's only a short survey.
Frustrating app when trying to apply basic functionality, like moving clips apart from each other - the app insists on snapping them together.
I'm moving on to Resolve.

Congratulations it’s almost perfect

Please add keyframe function and this will be my main app for fast editing…

Love it but a few bugs

I use it everyday to edit 20 - 30 minute YouTube videos. I record in 4K and the issues with this app arrises when I go to export. Unless I have 150GB free on my device I can’t export a 12GB 4K video.

This app is a better version of CapCut

It doesn't have any ads, subscription, or a watermark, I really hope they don't add those later on because it took me so long to find an amazing app like this, like it took me months to find an app that doesn't have annoying ads or popup subscription screens, or a huge watermark across the screen in the final product. It is very user friendly(in my opinion at least), I can customize more here than I can on iMovie, and I can choose what size my videos are so they fit properly on different social medias. I wish I could add infinity out of 5 stars because this is the best video editing app I've ever downloaded.

Rush & Violet - Combo!

Give it time. Join the adobe forum community and have your say, respectfully. Then watch these apps become the legendary go-to for a one-stop shop for a run n gun phone editing setup. We are on the ground floor and only going up (I hope).
I experiment (even though I get angry) once I calm down I do enjoy these apps and they do work. I’ve tried so many other apps but you can’t beat adobe. Especially when they listen to their users. That is all we ask. Even if just SOME feature requests get implemented I’d be a happy man.
And it shows that the company cares and is doing right with our subscription money.

Great alternative to CapCut

Project Violet is an amazing alternative to CapCut, offering a clean, intuitive interface and powerful editing tools. It combines smooth trimming, splitting, and merging with a wide variety of effects and transitions, making it ideal for both beginners and pros. The app handles high-res footage effortlessly, and features like keyframes, speed adjustments, and audio sync provide total creative control. Export options are excellent for high-quality sharing. Overall, Project Violet is a top-notch video editor, easy to use and packed with features—definitely worth trying!

Best editing app so far

The biggest frustration I’ve had with other apps is not being able to adjust the layer that specific video or audio is on however, this one seems to do it the best way.

Biggest issue that has come up recently with my last project is that the video exports, but it seems to be darker than it appears in the editor. I have no idea why and I’m not using any color grading settings.

I don’t really know how to submit this support request.

Great editing app!

I love using this app, I use it for animations/editing, and it’s unlike any other editing app I used since you don’t have to pay for anything! Maybe just a bit more effect stuff can be added, but aside from that, I love it!

A WIP for replacing the neglected Rush

There is potential in the app itself, as it looks to reboot the mobile efforts of video editing after neglecting Premiere Rush for many years (and the delink of cloud sync where even projects don’t even sync across devices).

Features are still basic, but some are quite powerful. Geared towards social media content creation, as it has prominent platforms shown when picking dimensions.

Good Save

Works in iPhone 16pro video formats that premier rush doesn’t

Waste of time

After discovering premiere rush (adobe) doesn’t work with my new iPhone I downloaded this. I could upload media but after spending ages editing, couldn’t save the file. Tried in 4K at both 60 and 30, and 1080p at 30. Every time after a lengthy upload screen it said ‘problem with upload, please retry’. Very annoying.

Image Merges, Resize & Mastery~

Pinch & Zoom image works flawlessly along with rotation option. I love this App is so great for showcasing my digital paintings with opacity, and just really there Mitch to match in gratitudes for functionality, and good options for sound/music integrations, various fade elements etc. All with ease of use verses overly complex. This App has just been so great in allowing me new innovative ways to give my artistries that pop I’d been hoping for. Thanks again Team Violet!oD

Works with iPhone 16 pro max -phew!

Very disappointed that Rush doesn’t work with my new phone - so I’m relieved that this alternative does!
