BRoken after update to 18.1.1, no support

Was working alright until I updated my ipad to ios18.1.1 then SRTool failed to load or work, just a blank white screen. Contacted app support but so far no answer. Very frustrating.

Full of bugs, not working properly

It was working fine at first, but now I can't even click on all of the subtitles to edit them, nor can I add a video.

Amazing value for a powerful tool!

I'm amazed at how powerful, easy and intuitive this editor makes it to create or refine subtitle files!

Once a subtitle file is opened and you've imported a reference video to go with it, you can:
• Drag a dialog box left or right on the timeline to change the timing of that subtitle
• Drag the left or right edges of a dialog box to change the start or end time of a subtitle, while getting on an on-screen preview of how the scene shifts in the video align with the start or end times of the subs.
• Edit the subtitle text for line breaks, spelling, etc.
• Add, split, or remove subtitles with ease
• Play the video faster or slower to more precisely refine the timings
• With the paid version, burn the subtitles into the video file

I've rated this 5 stars for its outstanding power and value, but I do have a wish list of improvements I'd like to see:
• Make the audio waveform larger and easier to see rather than hiding it in grey on black behind the dialog boxes! If this takes too much space, then add a button to hide/show the waveform. This would GREATLY help in timing the start of the subs to match the spoken words. I'd be happy to pay for this one!
• Add text formatting commands, at least to add or remove italics to highlighted text, as I see no way to do that at present.
• Add a button to more easily add song notes before and after the highlighted text, to better hande subtitles for song lyrics.

Useless

Can't even do the simplest things. All I needed is to move the times for all lines by ~3 seconds and it can't even do that. Can only go and adjust the time for every line one by one. Ridiculous.

Useless without instructions

I have a video in my camera roll. I want to create an SRT file for it. I have no clue how to do that with SRTool. When you open the app it looks like the Files app. I can’t see my camera roll and if I export the video from my camera roll to Files I can’t select the video. This app doesn’t help you at all. You either know how to use it or you can’t use it. Utterly useless without some instructions.
