It works but it often does not show progress
I give it 4 stars because it works and allows you to select videos from either Photos or Files and it does convert webm videos to mp4 or whatever, which is what I mainly wanted.
There are a variety of conversion and modification options. The UI is clunky. It can be slow (which is the nature of video conversion) and often does not give you a progress bar which is frustrating especially when converting a large video. If you make the mistake of tapping the back arrow (which you’re going to do because it doesn’t look like it’s doing anything), it actually stops the conversion and leaves you with only a portion of the video and no way to resume the conversion.
It apparently does not work in the background as it says to not minimize it while converting and there is no batch conversion. But maybe given the often lack of a progress bar that’s just as well.
It’s either a pricey subscription (there is a free trial) or a $25 one time purchase. The subscription makes no sense other than to do the trial and cancel so you can see all the functionality and try it out, to decide on the one-time purchase.
Still, I can’t knock it too much. It works and does what I wanted. So four stars from me but I hope the dev improves the progress indication, if nothing else. Oh, and yes it is working on device. I disabled WiFi and it still worked so it’s not sending your videos to a server - that gets a big thumbs up from me.

Terrible
This is not a free app. It is barely usable in the free version. Terrible and misleading. Just charge for the app if it isn’t free and stop wasting people’s time. Deleted almost immediately.
Waste of Time
Very disappointing experience. The app looks simple but does not work reliably. Converting videos takes too long and sometimes fails completely. The interface is confusing and not very user-friendly. I expected a smoother process, but it feels buggy and frustrating to use. Definitely not what I was hoping for.

This is probably the easiest to use out there. You just choose video/audio, choose what you want to convert it into and done. I convert audio vocals into a WAV for my songs on GarageBand, and it usually took me 10-15 minutes because I was always confused about how to do what, but then I found this app. It’s so easy to use! 5-stars! Absolutely recommend getting this if you need it for converting.

Subscription services
I signed up for a weekly subscription, with a free 3 day trial, so that i could convert a video of mine to audio as quickly as possible. The app said I was able to cancel my subscription at any time, but that doesn’t seem to be the case. There is no place to go to cancel my subscription!
