### 4/5 — Needs update...!

*2021-03-31*

Love and been using this app over the years now. Just curious if your still supporting and doing updates anytime soon? Having saving issues and no recognizing videos made on 12pro.

### 3/5 — Okay app, but

*2020-12-31*

I’ve liked being able to move stickers around in my videos, but lately the stickers disappear when I save. Also, you can’t rotate the stickers as you can in other apps.

### 5/5 — I like the app

*2020-02-21*

I it’s really like a merekel

### 5/5 — Did work well & now it doesn’t

Works great!

### 3/5 — 美金或台幣計價？

*2019-09-08, version 3.0*

升級寫$170 是台幣或美金也不講清楚！

### 4/5 — Очееень полезное

*2019-08-27*

Но иногда глючит

### 5/5 — Всё шикарно НО...

*2019-07-29*

Добавьте пожалуйста более тонкую коррекцию текста и более обширный выбор цвета (крутить вертеть + двигать по времени в реальном времени... так же с анимацией... не хватает перемещений в реальном времени т.е поставил ты эффект и понял что его нужно перетащить чуть назад или же вперёд а ты не можешь... приходится заново создавать текст или анимацию оттягивая ползунок )  РАЗРАБОТЧИК ПРОСТО ПУШКА ! СПАСИБО )

### 4/5 — Simple, could use more features

*2019-06-30*

Overall, I’d rate it OK. Could use more features, like fade in/fade out, ability to adjust translucency of image added. The size of image appears bigger once video is saved, so that needs to be adjusted.

### 1/5 — Купила функционал а он не работает

*2019-06-22*

### 5/5 — 還在摸索...

### 1/5 — Самое конченное приложение

*2020-05-08*

Делаешь видео, сохраняешь и ничего не показывает

### 1/5 — Мошенники

*2020-05-02*

Купила приложение из-за функции стирания водяных меток. Она заявлена разработчиками. Приложение устанавливается бесплатно. Но ничего в программе ты сделать не можешь пока не купишь. Так вот после покупки нужной мне опции не оказалось! На моё обращение служба поддержки не ответила.

### 1/5 — Horrible saving and app is bad

*2020-04-15*

At first i loved the app and all the features 
But it wouldn’t save my 30 second video or my 3 min video 
Also there is no option to look at saved videos 
And I don't have any idea what is a water work 
I rate it 0 because it was good but i couldnt save

### 1/5 — Saves the .png, but not the video...

*2019-11-27*

Bought this app to add our logo to videos. It worked at first, but now it will not save the video. It only saves the .png. Really disappointed as this was a game changer for our videos when making them quickly on our phones.

### 1/5 — Ужас

*2019-08-29*

Наложила на видео картинку,сохранила...в итога картинка черная выходит

### 1/5 — 一百七除浮水印覺得受騙
