Atenciosamente, Equipe de Suporte ### 3/5 — Variety *2026-07-10, version 1.25.1* Would love to see more styles of sharing videos and photo slides with more duration options ### 1/5 — Do not waste your time *2026-07-09, version 1.25.1* This app is not worth your money has great intention but every time I go to make a reel it crashes and gets stuck in the download mode but never downloads. Just wasted my money ### 2/5 — Unable to save the video *2026-07-09, version 1.25.1* Only for posting in Social Media and limited customization. Do not bother. ### 2/5 — Music sync issues when exporting *2026-07-01, version 1.25.0* Makes cool videos and content but most of the music in the app does not download with the final export… only “universal” mostly commercial type music exports. Pretty disappointing… I’m in the U.S. by the way, so would have expected more options for music export…Instagram does everything this app does and has a much larger music selection…paid $60 for the music and video sync but most does not work when exporting. Bummed… ### 1/5 — Enganação *2026-06-30* Péssimo, fui enganada na hora do pagamento, fiz opção por semana e me descontaram do cartão Anual, e não consigo cancelas . Golpe **Developer response:** Olá! Lamentamos saber que você teve uma experiência negativa com o pagamento e o cancelamento. Agradecemos por compartilhar esse feedback, pois é muito importante para nós. É compreensível que isso tenha sido difícil, e vamos escalar essa questão internamente para melhorar.

Atenciosamente, Equipe de Suporte ### 2/5 — Difficult to edit with *2026-06-25, version 1.25.0* As a video editor I find this app frustrating. Components don’t move as they should. Clips move on their own after I’ve spent time moving them around. Stubborn drag and drop. Limited song choices, not enough oldies. Beats don’t align when exported to Instagram. No fade in/out option so video abruptly ends. Terrible crop/zoom that doesn’t stay even and aligned when pinching. I’ll be looking for a new app similar to this. ### 4/5 — Stop the pop-ups for your other apps *2026-06-23, version 1.24.0* Even though I’m paying I still get pop-ups every time I open the app asking me if I want to install the apps that the same developers made please turn this off. It’s very annoying or at least give us a choice to turn it off. ### 1/5 — Doesn't export to insta properly *2026-06-21, version 1.24.0* Doesn't export to insta properly, real ultimately doesnt sync with music and you cant export out the app to upload as video. £6.99 down the drain. ### 1/5 — They ripped me off *2026-06-20, version 1.24.0* They deducted a yearly subscription yet I selected a weekly one just to test their app. Not worth my money. Don’t trust them with your info. ### 1/5 — Scam *2026-06-19, version 1.24.0* Offers “free trial” then immediately charges for a full year. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — It’s bad *2026-08-31, version 1.26.0* It’s bad ### 1/5 — Cant upload to local useless app *2026-08-30, version 1.25.1* This app is a waste. You can’t load it to your local device unless you want to load Instagram and TikTok. There are no other options, and it’s asking for $13 a month, which is ridiculous. ### 1/5 — Complicado atendimento *2026-08-25* Estou com problemas na conta e já mandei mensagem e ninguém resolveu **Developer response:** Olá!

Then just will not work. ### 1/5 — Waste of Money!! *2026-08-21, version 1.25.1* Everyone comes because of one beat clip which doesn’t work even not properly! Avoid it!! ### 1/5 — Won’t upload *2026-07-30, version 1.25.1* Tried making a clip and it won’t upload to instagram ### 1/5 — HORRIBLE *2026-07-27, version 1.25.1* Very unreliable, hard to scale, and freezes constantly. I would not recommend using or purchasing this app, it will waste your time and leave you sadly disappointed. ### 1/5 — What’s the point! *2026-07-19, version 1.25.1* It’s all about the music but you can’t share the video with the music!! And you don’t discover this until after you’ve subscribed so you can share. ### 1/5 — very limited selection and random errors? *2026-07-17, version 1.25.1* so i bought this (big mistake) without trying it on several templates first and taking a good look around. the music is difficult to find no genre or real organization and songs i found during the initial trial are nowhere to be found now likely due to disorganization or bait and switch i dont know. i expected it to at least have close to the same catalog as FB and IG so the reels i create would have the same music but its not even close. its EXTREMELY limited. also you can only add limited photos. very few have a loop option too so if a video is 7 sec that’s it! and finally the templates do not work. worked once or twice but now i add photos and get an oops something went wrong error every time. unfortunately i paid a year subscription thinking this was great after reading the reviews. wont make that mistake again. too many problems. ### 1/5 — Awful app *2026-07-11, version 1.25.1* So hard to use, not user friendly. So many better apps , don’t pick this one ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Login problem *2026-08-27, version 1.25.1* I already have an active Beat Pro subscription, but after switching to a new iPhone, I cannot access my subscription or restore my purchase. I downloaded the app again and tried to log in, but I still cannot use the Pro features that I already paid for. Please provide a clear way to restore my existing subscription on my new device. I would appreciate a prompt solution. (I just log in directly so I don’t know email and password) ### 5/5 — I love Making Reels with Instagram BEAT *2026-08-16, version 1.25.1* Love it , need all The help I can get, I feel so lucky to have access to these freaking very cool tools!
