Turna tee

We need more video clips options please

Spectacularly non-functional.

Numerous attempts just to load my own videos and audio from Files. And then the slowest process meter I’ve seen in a long time , plus the lonnnng time waiting for my files to load? Process? I don’t know, but even on the one attempt that this succeeded. The only function I could access was alternating between project views. Whoa, and that annual price set to charge by default after the free 7-day trial- ouch! There’s no reason it should hang consistently. Now way would I subscribe ! And now way is the app staying on my phone!

Rename with lifetime subscription option? YES.

You could call the app video DJ? Or you could call video sampler I don’t know yet or you can call “GarageBand music video overlay messenger service.” I’ll probably remember your name now as I wait for you to have more clip shots rather than whatever it is now 12? … as for effects all I need is dissolve where I can set the length of the dissolve to any length ………. it would be if the clips could be adjusted to be sound reactive. For instance, whenever the bass drum goes, it would show the face clip, and then if it does treble violin then it does the landscape video something like that a video clip equalizer???……… In exchange for the title advice of making your name, more memorable or paying for your name to pop up easier I would like a lifetime subscription. If you don’t mind ha ha I’m sort of serious. I bet a lot of people are looking for you can’t you because your name or description doesn’t pop up., get to work ha ha and like the other review, please allow me to include as many clips as my memory can handle and allow me to switch music and audio clips as well//???…. I don’t gave you four stars cause I haven’t really put you to my music video test yet….. and I’m on a check. I can’t afford 40 a year even come on with all the apps in the world. Give me a break….. Give me a discount, pity me the sort of handicapped, but I ain’t made out of it…..lol, good luck in your adventure I’m serious about earning a lifetime subscription~ I could do maybe some cool kaleidoscope generic clips you could offer or animation clips that all subscribers could use it would be worth it! I really want to get going with your program

Exceptional Product🖤

Always can count on Spool to make great custom visualizers with my own videos and use of the gnarly packs and effects. Thank you🤘🔥

Awesome

I love it. Layering the music I make with creative visual art adds another element to the creative output. Great job to everyone involved in making this app!

Lags

This app lags so bad. It’s literally impossible to use.

Needs update

These videos haven’t changed in a year and before that they only added less then a handful what a waste and the footage is wack I don’t recommend!!!!!!

Ok ok ok ok… I’m reloaded 💥

APP HAS BEEN ABANDONED! DO NOT USE!

I was on the beta team for this app and it was off to a good start, but it has been abandoned and there have been no updates to additional animation decks for over two years. I actually knew someone who was on the development team and he ended up leaving because the people that owned the app completely neglected it and have had zero updates.

The app frequently crashes and it’s just not worth the money. Keep moving forward and find something else because this is not it.

Horrible scam do not use

This tricked me into an annual subscription and it’s useless since it only allows 12 clips per video. Really bad software and really bad impossible to reach customer service if I could give it zero stars I would

Awesome and easy

Great app for making videos - music videos - especially. It would be cool if you could load more than 12 videos to your deck.

Decent

Decent editor app. Loved it at first but they haven’t added new visual decks in quite some time.

what a gift to artists!!

thank you to the creators of spool for creating a free and accessible platforms for artists to bring their visuals to life!! the app is a bit tricky if you want to edit in your own video clips, definitely a learning curve there but so grateful this exists!

Don’t

Not worth a subscription

Audio inputs need work

Fairly easy to use editor.
The audio triggers have potential but lack soul when activated and assigned to visual parameters. This app needs an offline mode as it will not operate without an internet connection.

Best Music Video App Ever

Thank you for creating such a beautiful app

The future of environmental narrative is here!

“What an amazing app”(text they suggest you write / but the app is pretty good.)

Dope video remix capabilities

I loved this. Picked it up instantly. It's a video editor but as if you are editing music so perfect for music videos.

My thoughts

I’ve been using Spool for a while now, and it’s truly a fantastic tool for creating music videos. The real-time editing features and the extensive library of visual effects are impressive and make the creative process enjoyable and intuitive.

However, I do have one suggestion for improvement: I wish there were more video templates available. Having a broader selection of templates would make it easier to quickly produce high-quality videos and provide more creative inspiration for users. Expanding the template library would greatly enhance the overall experience.

Overall, Spool is a great app, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to create professional music videos with ease. Keep up the good work, Pixite Inc.
