Also all the ‘trending’ sounds are quite old trending sounds. Needs a serious update 🥲 ### 3/5 — Cute but needs some work *2023-02-08* I want to love this app and get my money’s worth. (Those free trial auto renewal got me.) I like the idea for the ease of creating reels. I think this app would be more functional if they told you how many photos/videos included (why do I have to click on it to find out it’s only 5 videos when I need 8?), length of the reel, and allowing you to reorder the media selected. ### 1/5 — Cancel my account *2022-11-06, version 2.3.2* 2 times I send you email to cancel my account. But you are going on to withdraw money. CANSEL MY ACCOUNT!!!! ### 1/5 — App doesn’t work, stays stuck on creating recap video *2022-10-04* Would be a cool app if it actually worked, instead I’ve wasted 2 hours trying to see if it was just a simple glitch, but either way after I upload photos and videos the app doesn’t create my video, waste of time, don’t download and Ave your time, great idea but app doesn’t actually work ### 1/5 — Bad reviews are hidden! *2022-09-05, version 2.3.0* Complete scam, they hide the bad reviews!! ### 1/5 — Couldn’t save the video *2022-08-25, version 2.2.0* There is an error in the app and I can’t save the video after creating it. Also if you don’t pay attention it will easily charge you a lot of money for the anual subscription… ### 4/5 — Hands down the best app Iv used for this! *2022-08-10* I sadly dont get to write good reviews often but im glad the exception is here. I desperately needed this app so I can dish out quality video for my club through the busy schedule I have and thanks to this im able to keep up. Only things I would ask for is; 1. Eventually a constant stream of updated templates which I know would be super hard but I hope this app grows big enough to support that. 2. A major issue not being able to rearrange the order of your videos in a easier way. After choosing a template you select a bunch of videos and you cant memorize what is the time range each video is going to have so Im left with having to go back and select different videos for some of the sections that I see are going to be played longer or shorter based on the template. ### 3/5 — Audio deleted after paid subscription *2022-08-08* My audio was deleted on my reel after I paid the subscription. I loved the reel I created but can’t use it because there is no audio in it anymore. Very disappointing and can’t believe I spent $30 on it! **Developer response:** Yes Instagram does that sometimes. Sorry about that. Not our fault, but still sorry about that ❤️ ### 3/5 — WHY? *2022-07-27, version 2.1.11* After paying for the app, I tried to make my own reel template, after adding the music and template timing and everything, it keeps on telling me it is unable to save because not all the required fields are filled in, when everything is filled in. Can't use it? ### 1/5 — O Instagram bloqueia a conta *2022-07-18, version 2.1.11* Nunca tive problemas com o Instagram após usar o app 2x para editar meus vídeos recebi mensagem de suspensão por usar app externo infringindo as regras e políticas de uso do Instagram Além disso não deixa escolher as trends que estão em alta e limitam o uso e a criatividade ### 1/5 — No funciona *2022-07-18, version 2.1.11* Cuando das acceso a los videos usando un iphone te vuelve a enviar a dar acceso en lugar de seleccionar videos con acceso, nunca pase de la autorización de videos cueck! ### 1/5 — Funktioniert nicht *2022-07-10, version 2.1.9* Geht gar nicht, lässt mich keine Videos hochladen. 5,50€ zum Fenster rausgeworfen ### 1/5 — Does not work *2022-07-09* The concept is good however it doesn’t work, I try to add my photos and videos to template and nothing happens . I will delete the app ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Problems *2026-01-26, version 3.4.2* I purchased a year subscription and I tried to find app support, because after purchasing it’s STILL saying I need to purchase a subscription in the app. So I can’t even get help or get access to all the features! ### 1/5 — Outdated & no new update *2025-12-25, version 3.4.2* Templates have not been updated since 2024. Nothing new or trending. ### 1/5 — Waste of money *2025-06-19, version 3.4.2* I paid for the subscription but I can’t see any templates and audios. Everything is not working. Waste of money. ### 1/5 — Waisted 20 dlls *2025-04-29, version 3.4.2* The app is just for videos and has no tutorial. Horrible. I deleted after 19 dlls ### 1/5 — Annoying *2024-07-27, version 3.4.2* Twice it crashed on me while I was halfway through creating my reel. ### 1/5 — Scam *2024-01-20* This app is a scam!!! within Free trial but they will charge you immediately!!! Don't install this app!! Refund my money!! Useless app!!!!!!! ### 1/5 — Bad *2023-05-16* Not a free app. Limited templates. Low-key trash. ### 1/5 — Free trial is not true with this glitchy app *2023-05-15, version 3.0.2* I have been contacting your support team but has not been lucky ever since. I tried the free trial it says i have 3 days but the app billed me righht away. Also, the app is glitchy plus the features you have can totally be found in other apps. Please give me back my money. ### 1/5 — I subscribed to a 3 day free trial but I was charged for 1 year *2023-04-10, version 3.0.1* When I downloaded it, it wont let you try out the app without you subscribing to either a monthly subscription or yearly subscription. The yearly subscription has a 3 free day trial. I selected the option try it for free for 3 days. To my surprise, I received an email that I subscribed to a 1 year subscription. I tried to cancel it in the subscription section but it says there that I can cancel it but I can still use it til april 2024. This is so hassle! I need a refund! THE FREE 3 DAY TRIAL IS A SCAM! ### 1/5 — App does not update trending audio *2023-02-13, version 3.0.1* I’ve periodically checked this app since I purchased the add-on for it and I’m very disappointed that their trending audio page hasn’t updated since I’ve downloaded the app. They still show the exact same audios from months back, in the same order and sadly the reason why I purchased this app for its full capability was to show me NEW, trending audio that is up and coming but it just shows old audio that everyone has already used. Would like my money back as this is very misleading ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great service and easy to use *2024-12-26, version 3.4.2* Great app and simple to use ### 5/5 — Best Reel Editor and 2023 Recap Maker *2023-12-29, version 3.4.1* This was a super easy app to make my 2023 Recap with. Tons of high quality reel templates to choose from. Will keep using! ### 5/5 — Amazing *2023-12-11* This app is amazing. It works so well and I use it for business so it’s valuable to save time and create top quality reels efficiently. Whoever developed this app is genius. ### 5/5 — G *2023-02-17, version 3.0.1* Ghhghh ### 5/5 — LIFE SAVER *2022-07-30* This is a GAME CHANGER!
