It's also riddled with irritating ads, which I would deal with if it even worked. ### 1/5 — Garbage *2017-03-10, version 1.1* Just an ad for other apps ### 1/5 — Hate it *2016-05-03, version 1.1* I bought the app. And it doesn't allow me to crop my videos. It cuts it off.... I want my money back..... ### 2/5 — Terrible *2017-11-14* Preview was half the screen or less, deleted within minutes of downloading ### 2/5 — Used to be good *2016-02-24* This app used to be great and easy to use despite the occasional ad, which I'm fine with as long as the app functions, but ever since a few days ago, i haven't been 'allowed' to change background color because I need to pay 2.99$ for an alternate app instead. I will be deleting this app now and finding a new one that doesn't cost 2.99. ### 3/5 — Improved *2019-06-17* Less buggy used to crash all the time so far so good ### 3/5 — . *2017-04-25, version 1.1* Pretty good app. Very helpful to post videos on Instagram ### 3/5 — It's okay *2017-03-16, version 1.1* It's okay, they told me to rate 5 stars to use features ### 3/5 — Good App *2017-02-27, version 1.1* I like the features ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Good *2019-08-14, version 1.1* Alright ig ### 5/5 — Dope app *2019-07-29, version 1.1* apps dope af bros ### 5/5 — It’s awesome *2019-07-25, version 1.1* Love it!! ### 5/5 — Thumbs up! *2017-04-21* Good app won't be disappointed! ### 5/5 — amazing! *2017-04-19, version 1.1* Works well, easy to use, great quality!
