Couldn’t change the videos order. Only by replacing media. 2. I editted a landscape video, but it saved me in vertical format 🫠 Thank you very much “very helpful” Would like my money back for wasting my time ### 1/5 — Awful 😞 *2024-04-23, version 2.0.1* You have to pay for premium and if you put up something, you can’t just see it to your photos and everyone can see it ### 1/5 — Never works *2024-04-10, version 1.0.7* I haven’t been able to make any videos since I’ve paid for the app in full last year. I uploaded pictures and all it keeps saying is it’s loading. Nothing happens. Waste of money. ### 1/5 — Always the same *2024-04-05* The templates are the same as when I first started, nothing fresh or new, I end up just using Instagram reel layouts which would be free ### 1/5 — Won’t let you select the media you want *2023-09-22, version 1.0.7* Tread carefully with this app. It requires full access to your photos and media to work. If you don’t care about your privacy than this app is great. If you do care and only want to grant it access to select photos then I’m afraid it’s not for you! ### 1/5 — Terrible *2023-08-20, version 1.0.6* Takes too long to load anything. Will not use this app ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not enough templates *2025-09-30, version 2.1.7* I was expecting more templates. ### 1/5 — Always the same *2025-08-13, version 2.1.7* The templates are the same as when I first started, nothing fresh or new, I end up just using Instagram reel layouts which would be free ### 1/5 — Boring - no updates to templates *2025-07-23, version 2.1.7* I’ve had this app for months and it still has “winter is coming” as a template option. There have been no updates to my options in the almost year I’ve had this app. ### 1/5 — Clips can’t be made longer *2025-02-10, version 2.1.7* Horrible. ### 1/5 — Too fast *2025-01-19, version 2.1.7* The templates are all set to showing too many photos in the time slloted. The clips are all way to fast with mo way to adjust. ### 1/5 — Scam *2025-01-14, version 2.1.7* I searched reel makers and filtered to ‘Free’ …. This came up looked good so downloaded it…. When I opened it it wasn’t free … it offered me a 3 day trial … so like most people I went to do the FREE trial … Apple Pay wanted to authenticate my card …. Instead of that it took £10 from my account …. How is that a free App and how is that a Free trial …. This is theft ….. it’s obtaining money by deception it is highly illegal .. . Not that Apple , the app developers or the governments give one lonely F%£k …… ### 1/5 — Sketchy app/company. *2025-01-10, version 2.1.7* Billed me for full amount up front with leading users to believe there is a trial. ### 1/5 — No edit options *2024-12-13, version 2.1.7* This app doesn’t let you edit or rearrange video placement; you’re stuck using the provided templates. Total waste of money. ### 1/5 — No *2024-11-10, version 2.1.5* There's no creative freedom whatsoever ever I spent $40 to find out this is useless ### 1/5 — Freezes *2024-08-09, version 2.1.1* Freezes and closes. Annoying ## Most praised reviews (9 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great To Edit *2024-05-23* It’s a really good app and the best thing you can do so much things you can get videos and add photos to them, or you can just edit the video it self or the photo it self . It’s a good app the better you get at it the more you will succeed and better at editing. Once you know how to control the app and manipulate it , it turns Into a amazing wonderful app. Great To Edit Videos And Yt Videos Or Photo Or Both!! I really like this app and I think it’s a good app to download!! 😆 ### 5/5 — Pretty Good *2024-05-23* I used this app to make a video edit for my sister’s bday. It actually was really easy to navigate, and I could layer or audio from other videos which other apps would allow. I was surprised by how much I liked this app. And you can do a lot for free, without charges popping up left and right. ### 5/5 — Read thisssssss *2024-05-23* Okay, so I first got this app because I wanted to edit videos and make them awesome (obviously), and it’s perfect!!!! You don’t even need the in-app purchases because there is too much cool stuff already. No glitches, no ads (except for AFTER you finish editing), and you can add cool sound effects, emojis, text, filters, tons of stuff. Guys I’m serious just get it (I’m not apart of Reel Maker Inc. I swear) Byeeee✌️ ### 5/5 — My All Time Favorite Reel Maker *2023-08-01, version 1.0.6* I’ve looked at a couple of apps to spruce up my Instagram reels and this is the one I’m keeping, HANDS DOWN. It’s really awesome that I can finally go to one app that has it all. It lets me pick my favorite categories and assembles these amazing reels. The library of photos is absolutely stunning. You can also download songs and videos. I was able to upload all of my projects fast. No glitches or problems here. The app itself downloads really fast. It was up and running within seconds. The developers did a super job, as the user interface and design is sleek, modern and adaptable to both of my devices. All in all, it does what it says and is definitely a keeper! ### 3/5 — Mid *2026-03-17, version 2.1.7* I haven’t been super happy with this. It glitches a lot for me even when keeping app up to date. Shuts down automatically all the time also. ### 3/5 — Just a music video sync not app *2025-01-29, version 2.1.7* Unlike the VideoLeap app this app just syncs your videos to the music interludes in the templates, not impressed. Though they have a lifetime plan which is great? ### 3/5 — Ok but crashes *2024-05-08, version 2.0.1* The app is nice, but it constantly crashes when you they the 67 clip reel. ### 2/5 — Needs full photos access *2024-01-29, version 1.0.7* I downloaded this to try it tonight, but only gave it limited access to photos I’ve selected. The app doesn’t seem to work at all without full access. ### 2/5 — . Waste of money *2023-07-29, version 1.0.6* Worst app ever. Shuts down after every 5 seconds. Can’t upload my projects or use their templates. Waste of money --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
