We will make this. It doesnt sound like you enjoyed using the app though? Used for 10 days then didn't just crop in the editor normally? Just pinch to re-size. The point of Reelshot is that it's the #1 app in the world for vlogging and has had years of very hard work to make it perfect for creators who we love. All you need to do is use the free trial to make your export or alternatively contact us to get one year all premium features for free contact@reelshot.co.uk. We would love you to use it to the full. It's the only app that gives you unlimited filming time. Perfect for medium and long form Youtube vlogs. Watch all your vlogs back in app privately. Use Vlog widgets, Get Free AI credits for cinematic transitions and perfect thumbnails and cover posters, Trim 100's of shots in one tap for instant recaps, film in low-key mode (hold portrait shoot horizontal), real-time editing, align shots, beautiful text and instant timestamps as well as premium background music.... We've worked so hard to make Reelshot perfect for vlogging. We give a generous free trial to see if it's for you, then it's very very affordable to go pro. If you really need to vlog just email us and we'll give you a code to use it for free. We'd love you to. But please don't give a 2 star review for something where we let you use it for free. 🙏 contact@reelshot.co.uk - for a free code. Thank you and we hope you change your mind! Reelshot team ### 3/5 — Wth *2026-05-03, version 3.18.60* I’m disappointed.. I wanted this app so I could watch over when older, but I CAN ONKY MAKE 3 VLOGS. Like who freaking does that? Overall pretty good ig ### 2/5 — Great app keeps failing *2025-12-03, version 3.17.136* When I first found this app and started using it I could not upload videos to the app. Not to big of a deal since you can film in the app. But now just 5 months later and only one month of me getting to use the app fully because it’s now working. It’s saying I can’t upload. I already paid the $17.99 annual fee and now it’s wanting to charge me $24.99 to get pro. I had pro. No warning that they were changing price and not grandfathered in. As a content creator I love the app but this is bad customer appreciation and shady business practice. ### 4/5 — I love this app but …. *2025-07-19, version 3.17.42* I love recording on this app, but the problem is is that my footage kept on getting deleted and you know that was really disappointing to me because I truly love this app ### 5/5 — The perfect app to make a vlog effortlessly ! *2025-06-27, version 3.17.36* I've been using this app for a few weeks now and it’s honestly one of the easiest ways to make a vlog on the go. The vlog camera feature is super intuitive, and the built-in video editor makes trimming clips and adding transitions incredibly smooth. Whether you’re a beginner or looking to upgrade your YouTube editor setup, this app has everything you need. It’s lightweight, fast, and really helps you stay consistent with content creation. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to create vlogs regularly without the hassle of using complicated software! ### 5/5 — Love !! *2025-06-03, version 3.17.27* Great app ### 4/5 — Paying *2025-05-09, version 3.17.25* I don’t want to pay for it I want to have all the time that I need to make a vlog but other then that I love it so much GET THE APP ### 2/5 — Ok *2025-04-29, version 3.16.21* Films ok but it has no sound ### 5/5 — Great App *2025-04-22, version 3.15.20* I really enjoy using this app now it’s really good. And the customer support was super nice. I initially gave this app a bad review because at the time I thought that the app was misleading, but when I reached out to them they responded quickly and bad explained why everything in the app isn’t free. (because people need to get paid lol) But they were super kind about it and even gave me a free code to use. Thank you so much for making this app. ### 5/5 — Amazing *2025-03-15* Best all I’ve used for vlogging makes it much easier to stay consistent. The only thing for me so far I wish when editing video the playback sound would play through my AirPods not phone speaker. Is there a way to fix this? **Developer response:** Love how you’re staying consistent vlogging with Reelshot! That’s exactly what we know it’s great for! It should work through AirPods if connected. We just tested and all was perfect. Please shoot us an email to contact@reelshot.co.uk so we can look into it more if still persisting. Thanks again for the awesome review 💫 ### 5/5 — Amazing editing app *2025-03-04, version 3.15.9* Such a great app to edit vlogs!! Straight on one app you can film and edit it’s great. Also has so many editing feature that you need. ### 5/5 — Brilliant. *2025-02-28, version 3.15.9* Fun, effective and easy to navigate. ### 5/5 — Simple & time-saving *2025-02-27, version 3.15.9* By far the simplest, most time-saving editing software I have ever used. This user friendly app has made vlogging so much more enjoyable for me by allowing me real-time editing, in-built stabilisation and different A/B rolls to better sync my audio clips and music. I would highly recommend! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Terrible 😡🤬 *2026-06-30, version 3.18.62* Bro I can’t even film that long bc it says out of shots ### 1/5 — !!! Great App for Simple Vlogging but… *2026-06-28, version 3.18.62* I really enjoy using this app for quick vlog clips and daily recaps. But when it comes to editing. It’s good at first, but when you make adjustments or add more clips then you play the reel. The reel is rolling, music playing but the images are blank. Hope it gets fixed soon. Will be canceling subscription if not working properly. ### 1/5 — greed *2026-01-01, version 3.18.3* can’t export without paying a membership, waste of time. advertisement is ai as well which is tasteless and ironic. 0/10 ### 1/5 — WORST *2025-09-03, version 3.17.45* I CANT EXPORT ### 1/5 — Have to pay to export video *2025-08-25, version 3.17.45* I saw a comment stating that you have to pay to export your video so I did I test record and unfortunately it’s true so… no thanks ### 1/5 — Deleted videos *2025-05-15, version 3.17.25* Lost all of my clips ### 1/5 — Rubbish! *2024-07-31, version 2.2.64.* The vlogging bit is cool where u can change speed. But after you make ur vlog u can go only go up to 10 shots before you have to pay. And you can’t even export without paying! These guys are only after your money and doesn’t even let you use the app properly without making u pay. ### 1/5 — YOU NEED PRO TO DO ANYTHING *2023-07-02, version 2.2.32.* can’t do anything without pro ### 1/5 — Booooo! *2019-10-04, version 1.4* This app is really rubbish, I mean, when I first tried to use this app, when I had finished editing, it’s just said: having trouble uploading the video. I didn't want to try again, so I just deleted it, and then went on to the App Store and wrote this 1 star review on how bad it is. Could do better. ### 1/5 — Non professional! *2019-07-28, version 1.2* No horizontal video????!!! Seriously? Too much limited features. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Start y'all vlogging channel *2026-07-19, version 3.18.64* You can really just use the app for the camera quality it's a 5/5 for sure. But for editing i would suggest using capcut, this combo together goes nuts! ### 5/5 — Great App *2026-07-14* Please add slide up and down as a zoom in and out feature for low-key mode!! This would be SO helpful not having to use 2 fingers to zoom in!! And option to use 12 hour clock for time stamp not just military time please!! Besides that great app and worth the subscription **Developer response:** Thank you! We're so happy you're vlogging with Reelshot. You can hold to record and drag up and down with your thumb to zoom in and out just like Instagram, and TikTok. We will get the 12 hour clock in for you too! Don't forget to try: - Trimming all shots to the same length in a tap for instant recaps - Real-time editing to save hours of time - Home screen and lock screen widgets to never miss a moment - Make cinematic video to video transitions with AI Studio Love this feedback! Happy vlogging! Reelshot team ### 5/5 — Cheese *2026-04-03, version 3.18.54* Cheese is a good film ### 5/5 — Great App for Simple Vlogging *2026-03-12* I really enjoy using this app for quick vlog clips and daily recaps. The interface is simple and easy to use, which makes capturing moments throughout the day effortless. It’s perfect for anyone who enjoys documenting life in short video clips without complicated editing. **Developer response:** Thank you so much for the awesome review! Reshot is built for effortless vlogging just like this. The widget is always ready to take your shot and keep everything separate from main camera roll. Thank you so much for documenting life with us! ### 5/5 — Great app keeps failing *2026-02-28, version 3.18.38* This app is amazing . I was really struggling with keeping videos organized and this allows me to keep all the different clips and videos labeled and easy to find. ### 5/5 — Everything I've ever wanted in a camera app *2026-01-29* I’ve been looking for an app like this for a long time! It removes so much of the friction that usually comes with recording on my phone. Instead of scattered clips across my camera roll, everything can live in one place. Features like the date/time stamp are something I’ve always wanted for a home-movie style look, and Discrete Mode, which lets me film horizontal while holding my phone vertically, makes recording feel natural and low-pressure. Between those, recording directly in the app, and the widgets for quick access to your current project, vlogging feels effortless and enjoyable! I also can’t say enough good things about the team behind the app. I reached out with a camera issue, and they were incredibly responsive, thoughtful, and kind throughout the process — and fixed it quickly. You can really tell this app was built by people who actually care about the user experience. Thank you so much, Reelshot! **Developer response:** Thank you for the wonderful review! This perfectly captures what Reelshot was built for and what it can do to make vlogging effortless. Keeping everything in one place and being able to film and edit in one app with tools made exactly for beginner and pro's. A private space to easily capture what's important to people is the #1 goal.
