STOP CHANGING THINGS GUYS *2024-12-04, version 1.9.9* STOP IT AND STOP CHANGING OR ILL FREAKING GO NUTTTTTTTTRSSSS ### 3/5 — No support *2024-11-19* I have been using this app for some time and it really seems to do the job. However, having purchased the upgrade, I had a query and have sent a couple of emails but am unable to elicit any kind of response, whatsoever, not even an acknowledgement. I’d call support inadequate but, in fact, it’s totally non-existent. ### 4/5 — Review *2024-11-14, version 1.9.7* Good ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work after update *2026-05-07, version 2.3.6* I used to love this app. Since I update I can no longer change the name of the saved video and the video once compressed is black. No picture only sound. Why mess with a good thing. Very disappointed ### 1/5 — Too many ads *2026-05-03, version 2.3.5* I only use this a few times a year. Big changes since last used. I get an ad every time I change screens. Used to be easy to use. Time to delete and find a better option. ### 1/5 — It was good but now is trash *2026-04-16, version 2.3.4* A nice app that performed well is replaced by AI obsession nonsense slop and ads every time you touch the menu. It is not even usable for the basic advertised function anymore. ### 1/5 — Video vài chục mb xử lý Chậm, xử lý lâu, nóng máy *2025-10-19, version 2.1.9* Vô dụng ### 1/5 — Not working *2025-08-24, version 2.1.6* Just paid for it and it doesn’t finish compressing any single or multiple videos ### 1/5 — Terrible *2025-08-01, version 2.1.2* Terrible, doesn’t work.. what a scam ### 1/5 — G *2025-07-28, version 2.1.2* Setelah dikompres size file masih besar dan gabisa diatur ### 1/5 — Edit *2025-07-27, version 2.1.1* If you are using the old version which was ultimately useful do not update and neither make any comment nor gave any stars for the app. The app immediately turned to useless junk. What an ignorance! You have changed the app into a useless add garbage by your own updates and asking for details like you don’t know. Fortunately by AI agents everyone can create their own comprehension apps. Bye ### 1/5 — Không dùng được trên iphone 15 , còn chèn nhiều quảng cáo *2025-06-09, version 2.0.9* Không dùng được trên iphone 15 , còn chèn nhiều quảng cáo ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2025-06-08, version 2.0.9* I tried multiple times to compress my videos from iphone15 and after waiting for processing, nothing happened…tried many times to no avail. Don’t waste your time. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Works great *2026-01-25* This Video Compressor app works really well and it’s very easy to use and I don’t mind the ads. ### 5/5 — رهيب بمعنى الكلمة👌 *2025-01-08, version 2.0.0* رهيب بمعنى الكلمة👌 ### 5/5 — Excelente *2024-12-24, version 2.0.0* Thank very much! ### 5/5 — Excelente *2024-12-24, version 2.0.0* Es excelente.! ### 5/5 — Brilliant *2024-11-29, version 1.9.8* 👍👍👍fab ### 5/5 — Tốt *2024-11-21, version 1.9.7* Rất tốt ### 5/5 — Tốt, rất là tốt luôn, nhanh gọn *2024-11-13, version 1.9.7* Tốt ### 5/5 — I Really Like It. *2024-11-10, version 1.9.7* You compress a vid for free> you watch an ad. Seems a very fair trade to me, especially in the era that my Prime Video now has ads while I’m also paying for it (I know I can pay more to go ad-free again but I’m not down for that, I’m trying to reduce my reliance on/addiction to Amazon NOT fritter extra monthly cash away because The Antich- err I mean Mr Bezos has decided to move the goalposts). Apologies, I digress, to sum up I have absolutely no complaints, niggles, irks or high fallutin offers of technical advice/support for the developers whatsoever & think it’s a pretty perfect, low-key, app. ### 5/5 — Great app *2024-11-03, version 1.9.7* You will love it. ### 5/5 — Thanks 🫶 *2024-10-23, version 1.9.7* So good app --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
