Only lost a star because since updating it wastes time reloading the original video again after you’ve done everything you want. It didn’t do this before and as well as being annoying, it also seems pretty pointless. ### 3/5 — New issues *2021-01-06* Are used to use this all the time, with never any issues. I use this app more than any other app for sure. However, over the last three weeks the app claims that all of my photos are not accessible. I’m not sure what’s different today ### 1/5 — Müll *2020-11-28* Rausgeschmissenes Geld. Funktioniert nicht. ### 1/5 — App is not working *2020-10-14* It says compression failed I have already purchased the app Need my money back ### 1/5 — Awful *2020-10-09* If I could give this less than one star I would!! Absolutely awful. Once it’s done compressing it tells you it can’t save as the original file can’t be found. Pitiful! ### 4/5 — Works great for me *2020-05-15* No issues does what it says, only works with photos app ### 1/5 — Null zufrieden *2020-05-02* Geld für null Funktion ausgegeben! ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work anymore *2019-11-06* Same issue so many users already reported. Why still no fix?! 🙁 ### 1/5 — Does not work on my iPhone. *2019-10-01* Does not work ### 1/5 — Payment *2019-08-16* They charge me 4.75$ instead 1.99$ ### 1/5 — Funktioniert nicht *2019-05-16* Compression Failed bei allen zur Auswahl stehenden Möglichkeit en... schade. ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2018-10-18* I didn't realize this App would only be able to compress video found in Photos. I was hoping to be able to search for videos that need compressing! Mine is in another folder and not Photos, so this App is useless. I'm very disappointed. ### 2/5 — Was not what I expected *2018-08-31, version 3.1.1* I had a 25 mb video with the first option that says 70% it only went to 17 mb it was supposed to go to 6 mb ... but I think since its a paid app you should get to pick the size of your video ... next option got it to 22 mb and next option got it to 3.3 mb !! I wanted 8mb so it didn’t work for me .. I give it the 2 stars because its easy to use ### 1/5 — Not working *2018-05-31* Download the app and it doesn’t work. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — App is a scam *2021-09-21* The app does not work at all.
