Not to mention that the app keeps freezing . I want my money back now !$& ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2020-12-24, version 5.8.2* This is just a waste of money! ### 1/5 — Real time video maker *2020-08-04, version 5.8.2* The quality of this product is very poor which makes the end result so down graded it affects the views. Very poor but will I get my money back. You have to pay for it to find out how it works. I will stick to imovie from now on. ### 1/5 — DOES NOT WORK *2020-05-30, version 5.8.2* I recently paid for a premium subscription to Real Player after more than a decade of not using the service. The main reason for my purchase was to burn audio CDs with crossfaded tracks. The problem is, this feature does not work. I try to create a playlist to then convert to a CD and I get an error message saying the media type (MP3) is unsupported. My entire collection of music (over 300,000 songs) is MP3 files. When I troubleshoot the issue, I am told I do not have the correct plug-in to burn audio CDs. How do I get these plugins? Do an update? When I tried that, I am told there are no updates available and have the latest version of the software. I can't even play MP3 files in Real Player which I find unacceptable. All I want to do is burn CDs with my current MP3 collection. If this is not possible, I must request a refund for the full $39.99 amount and be done with Real Player. I am TOTALLY frustrated and disappointed. ### 1/5 — Plan Package *2020-04-22, version 5.8.2* The APP doesn’t even work after I purchased the package. It is lock on 30 seconds video. Since I needed more than 30 seconds, and for me to be able to create video that’s more than 30 seconds I opted the package $2.99 and even the 3.99 is not working either. And because I already did the purchased, there is no option for a refund from you. ### 1/5 — real time *2020-02-10, version 5.8.2* Paid for up-grade, but it does not work! Customer Suport unable to resolve. Can I have my money back? ### 1/5 — Awful app *2020-01-11, version 5.8.2* What is the point of paying a monthly subscription when you try to play a saved video and it either says there isn’t a good enough internet connection to play it (wrong, everything else works fine), or that it is “optimising video, try again in x seconds.” Trying again never works, by the way.... I feel trapped as I now have too much stuff on Real Times to contemplate a move to another service - it would be too much hassle to move everything. ### 1/5 — 改善しろや *2019-05-25* ちゃんと見れるように早く改善せんかい ### 1/5 — 落ちて使えない *2019-04-30* アップデート後すぐ落ちて使えなくなった ## Frequently asked questions about RealTimes ### What does RealTimes do?
