this app is amazing because it lets you visit your memories after months, reliving fun times
There are calibration issues with selecting dates as well as they no longer show albums from your phone so you have to scroll a ways if the video you want is a past date. They also only allow 3 second clips max but no longer let you select a setting to create a 1,2, or 3 seconds clip you have to scrub the footage carefully to select your desired length. Lots of new bugs/issues that make the app frustrating but also a lot of added features I have been looking for in this app for a long time like the ability to crop the video in app or add filters etc.

I found this app okay. I like that u can add ur videos it says u can add photos which u can but every time I add a photo it makes the photo into a video aswell of this every time I add text to the things it doesn’t let me save it. This is my first time using the app so it could just be because I’m doing this wrong but besides that the app is amazing

I have used this to create an annual video log for the past 4 years and the changes it has gone through have made it almost unusable. For example, I am currently trying to start a new “project” for 2026, and it won’t let me scroll down to start the project after naming it. I loved this app and really hope they will fix it!!!

I added clips to the video diary all year for 2025, I decided to export it December 31st and it says it cannot complete action. Please help me.
It’s kind of boring
Awesome idea, but app keeps crashing when I try to add a photo
It’s very easy to figure out. And I love that after you do it you can look back at all your photos and it’s so memorable. highly request getting this app if you want to start your Video Diary journey thank you video diary!
Not sure if there was an update to the app within the last year and half or so but the quality of the app went down fast. Videos take longer to upload. Harder to navigate the dates on the calendar. Only still here because it stores my daily vids. I would leave otherwise.
Only allowed 3 second videos is just not enough for what I’m looking for
This video was amazing, super amazing until the last update. Everything is so difficult to navigate, the fonts are different, and we cannot write anything anymore.. it is just so hard to keep everyday videos that I am looking for better options. I am very much attached to this app, but it needs some serious fix.

You cannot pick the date up want even todays date is unable to be chosen
After filming for all of 2024 my video won’t merge, app support won’t reply. Very disappointing!!! Please fix the app
New update just says “could not merge videos” rendering the app useless. Oops
The update won’t let me post a daily video or merge the year video
App recently got revamped and updated. Since then it’s not great at all. I did a video diary using this app 3 years ago for one year of my baby and it was perfect. I did the same one year ago for my youngest baby and after a year of documenting it wont merge. Contacted help for support and noone responded. This has really annoyed me as it worked so well with my first baby.

Been trying to merge my 2024 video for days, still not working even with the update, tried to contact app support and still no response unfortunately!!! No response been a month!
I have months of videos that can’t be merged/export anymore. It just gives me an alert saying it can’t merge the videos together. No explanation as to why, so I can’t even try to fix it myself. It used to be a great app, but they need to fix the glitches and go back to the old UI.
I’ve used this app for the previous 2-3 years and loved it. This year the change has made it way less user friendly.
Harder to select videos than before, get access albums in my galery anymore which is a shame
