But every time I try to the app crashes. :( hope this gets fixed. ### 3/5 — ちゃんと使えればよいアプリ *2018-04-19* 動作が安定しない。よく落ちる。あと私の場合、iPhone7 plusではちゃんと使えるけど、iPhone6 plusだと動画がカクカクしてしまって使い物にならない（以前はちゃんと使えていたので、削除して何度もインストールし直してるけどダメ）。 それと、フィルターの強度をインスタグラムのアプリみたいに自分で調整できるようにしてほしい。今のフィルターは効果が強すぎる。 こうした点を改善してくれるなら星5つにします。 ### 3/5 — No vertically-shot video *2018-03-26* This is great for what it does - a single, unique effect. No parameters to adjust, but I can’t complain, it’s free! ### 5/5 — Solid app *2017-12-03* Update: I've used this a lot and it's great! I have used this for about five times over the last couple months. I love it, gives you two copies of what you record. One regular and one old looking, love it. ### 2/5 — It still needs work *2017-11-30* It would be a nice little app that’s fun to use. However it crashes ALL THE TIME! I will sometimes have to edit the same video 2-3 time because it crashes in the middle of my project. ### 2/5 — Could be awesome *2017-10-10* Looks really great and it's fun to start playing with, but it literally just keeps crashing. ### 4/5 — GREAT APP *2017-05-09, version 1.3* I love this app, it makes my videos look very vintage and the filters they give you are really nice. However, sometimes the app crashes so I'm hoping that should be fixed! ### 2/5 — 삭제요청!!! *2016-12-18* 용량부족으로 삭제요청부탁드립니다. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Crashes *2026-01-09* Even when working with a three sec clip in medium setting it crashes almost immediately and can’t use it ### 1/5 — Crashes *2020-04-12* The app crashes every time I import a video (6 sec long). I’m using an iPhone 11 Pro Max with the latest iOS. ### 1/5 — とにかく落ちる *2018-08-07* 編集できる内容はいいと思うんだけど、編集中にとにかくアプリが落ちる（強制終了）。 ビミョーな調整をしてる途中にこれが何度も起きるので正直、使い物になりません。 端末はiPhone8 Plus。 有料版を買ったので調査・改善を強く望みます。 ### 1/5 — 課金された… *2018-07-05* はじめだけ無料で、いつのまにか課金されてしまった。。 ### 1/5 — Horrible! *2018-02-26* There’s only one filter? And it’s black and white??? Um?? ### 1/5 — Can't use HD 1080 format *2017-03-25, version 1.4* Worthless! ### 1/5 — 구매내역 삭제 부탁드립니다 *2016-12-23* 용량 문제로 구매 내역 삭제해주세요 ### 1/5 — 速攻で消した *2016-12-06* 加工途中に落ちる 保存しようと思ったら落ちる プレビュー見てても落ちる 全く使えないので速攻で消しました ### 1/5 — 아니 왜 *2016-10-05* 사용하려고 하면 자꾸 중간에 어플이 종료되 짜증나게 ### 1/5 — 困ります *2016-09-03* 有料版を購入し愛用していましたが、最近になって落ちるようになりました。使えませんので、どうにかしてください。 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Actually amazing 😳🙌 *2026-01-28, version 2.2* I must have downloaded about ten video editors; every single one (expected of course) give you 3/7 days trial blah blah but I just wanted a simple grain/vignette and selection of colour palettes - for £2 this does everything I need with the simplest, intuitive interface… completely worth it, cheers! 👊 ### 5/5 — can you add themes to this app please *2022-12-29* can you add themes to this app ### 5/5 — Not a cash grab *2020-06-26* The most annoying thing about looking for an old Timey super 8 filter was that every single one was a cashgrab. This one lets you browse certain filters for free and then you can pay for more options. ### 5/5 — Simple! HOWEVER‼️ *2019-10-30* I’ve been using this app since last year. Loyal. However, it’s now crashing. This is so sad, please fix this. I use IPHONE XS MAX. I edit video 1080 P and above. 60FPS. ### 5/5 — Great Free Retro Film *2019-09-01* I give this app 5 stars because it lets me import and export videos with sound, with some free filters and effects. This is the only free retro film app worth having, that I have come across. Every other app is a money grab besides this. The negative reviews I read were about technical difficulties, and were from years ago. It appears the app has improved since then. If anything changes, my review will update. For now, 5 stars; I’m very happy with this retro film app! ### 5/5 — I LOVE IT! *2019-04-27* Gives my videos the vintage aesthetic look and it’s super easy to use. SO happy I got it 😍 ### 5/5 — Really good *2019-02-10, version 1.7.1* Actually looks like vintage film!! ### 5/5 — Great app just keeps getting better *2018-10-20* I Love this app and they are always making it better every single update keep it up retro film!!! ### 5/5 — Great! *2018-05-31, version 1.6.1* These filters leave the video with great quality and it doesn’t take super long to save. Tons of great effects even without paying, thank you so much for making my school project possible. ### 5/5 — Awesome *2017-12-16* This app is great when it comes to realistic 8mm film. Couldn’t ask for anything more! Great job. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
