There are very few apps that do this well, which is why I'm giving this 3 stars. But it falls at extracting frames. There's a camera icon, which I assume is to take a snapshot of a frame. But where does that frame go? Not to the photos app. I even paid extra for extracting frames to work, but still the same results - no extracted frames that I could find anywhere! And the support button in the app store leads to a random artsy website, with no mechanism I can find to even report a problem. Also, GIFs are poorly supported. The information in the GIFs about how long each frame is supposed to be displayed is ignored, I think in favor of playing every GIF at 20 something frames per second, as if it was a video. This app could be a great one if these problems were fixed. ### 2/5 — Under rated *2025-01-29, version 4.10* Great app but the pay wall kills it ### 3/5 — Works fine but frame rate in the playback bar is tricky *2024-03-11* To use all functions it’s a bit expensive but works fine. Biggest problem is that the time displayed in the bar shows frames from 0 to 96 even if file is at 25 fps (if you stop the playback at 0:01.01f the system displays 0:01.04 - or if you stop at 0:0:24f the system displays 0:0.96) Couldn’t find any contact to ask support. It would be very helpful to have different option in viewing the frame rate. Ciao! **Developer response:** Thanks for the comment. You can contact tg @ddkang for further discussion. ### 1/5 — Scam *2021-06-15, version 3.5* $8 to play a vid in frame by frame what a joke ### 1/5 — Garbage *2021-06-06, version 3.5* I skipped forwards approximately 5 frames and it said I needed to pay $9 for more time. Ridiculous. Use another app, don’t waste your time or money. ### 1/5 — In-app purchase required to do frame-by-frame *2021-01-26* In-app purchase required to do frame-by-frame playback **Developer response:** if you don't need frame-by-frame playback, please don't purchase it. ### 1/5 — Family sharing does not work *2020-12-21, version 3.4* I purchased this app to install on my son’s iPad for him to use to complete his science project. The app is only unlocked on my phone, not on the iPad. This app should not be advertised as family share compatible, or the developer needs to fix this. I would not have knowingly purchased a $9 app that does not work on the family’s devices. ### 1/5 — Useless *2020-10-04, version 3.3* Useless unless you request a price ### 1/5 — GIF does not work on slo mo video *2020-07-25, version 3.3* I paid for the GIF maker and it does not work on Slo mo videos ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work🥺 *2020-03-03, version 3.2* Doesn’t work🥺 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — NOT FREE TO TRY AFTER 2 MINUTES *2025-05-18, version 4.10* all i tried to do was test frame advance then after two minutes it LOCKED and forced me to pay or use nothing. So i choose nothing. all you ever have to do to extract a photo from a video is pause the video where you want a picture and do a 'screenshot'. boom, there's your photo and you can crop & scale in photos. Why would anyone PAY for something that is built-in to every phone and free to use? like, don't be stupid. ### 1/5 — No funciona *2024-12-16* Por más que le muevo, no me está funcionando. Lástima prometía bien. **Developer response:** Sorry to hear that. Can you tell us what is your problem? Other users are using this app well. You can send email to 281802499@qq.com. ### 1/5 — Great idea, but has issues *2024-04-16, version 4.9* First, it incorrectly displays the framerate for slomo videos. It says they are 30 fps and calculates time as if it were 30. Second, it won’t play videos taken on another apple device. Example: videos taken on my iPhone show up in the file listing, but play as a black screen on my iPad and vice versa. The app only works with videos recorded on the same device as it is installed on. Maybe be a local storage vs iCloud issue. Third, please just list a price for full functionality. This a la carte approach is really annoying. The app has great potential, but these issues limit it’s usefulness. ### 1/5 — Don’t buy *2024-02-02* This is a really painful app. It promises so much but every single feature has to be paid for one after another. This is not clear when you first download this so it ends up being very expensive. There will be better options that do not try and milk money out of you all the time **Developer response:** Thanks for the comment. You only need to pay for what you need. It’s by design because many people don’t really need all features. They just want the basic feature and don’t want to pay for unnecessary features. ### 1/5 — gave me a bad grade *2023-10-06, version 4.8* trash ### 1/5 — Purchased the app yet still can’t use its features. *2022-10-02, version 3.9* Sometimes it wants to work and sometimes it doesn’t. I bought it and have clicked restore numerous times and still doesn’t allow me to use the features. Have deleted it and redownloaded it and that doesn’t fix the issue. Pass on this. ### 1/5 — Scam *2022-09-02, version 3.9* You buy it but nothing works till you pay more for every function ### 1/5 — Can’t even purchase 😒 *2022-08-15, version 3.9* Can’t even purchase. I loaded this app on a iPhone 13 and when the notice comes up to contact for price. the box just flashes and won’t let me select. Removed and tried it again - same thing. You should just charge for the app outright instead of the pop up box. I am a skating teacher and this app would have been perfect for me. Sorry you lost a sale. ### 1/5 — CRAP *2022-05-23, version 3.9* i gave 1 star because i cannot give a NO star rating. **Developer response:** It's developed as per many users' requirement. maybe it's not for you. btw, you can give a no-star rating by deleting your comment. ### 1/5 — It’s actually 9 bucks don’t bother *2022-04-16, version 3.9* Way overpriced for something you can do for free on a laptop :/ would be cool if it didn’t interrupt me every 2 seconds begging me to pay $9. Very dishonest and annoying way of asking for payment. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Used for videos *2026-07-15, version 4.10* Good and easy ### 5/5 — Good *2025-08-17, version 4.10* It let's you play videos frame by frame 🤷🏻‍♂️ ### 5/5 — The best frame by frame Video app Ive used; simple *2025-07-10, version 4.10* Ive tried just about every single app similar to to this and this is the most basic easiest to use , im not sure how to use the gif making part, but as for slowing and coping each frame you need its the best , some reviews about it being a scam are ridiculous , but more time could be spent improving this app by giving a few tutorials and suggestions of projects it could be used for would open up a river of much deserved 5 star reviews , thanks for the hatd work so far ### 5/5 — Not working with iPhone 16 *2025-02-13, version 4.10* Can’t open any videos in the “All Videos” (I see them, select them, but can’t play). The videos from “Files App” are working fine. iPhone 16, iOS 18.2.1, FramePlayer version 4.10.1 (all softwares are up to date). ### 5/5 — Draw Function *2025-01-15* I would love to purchase the 'Draw Function', but the Edit Bar is in the way. Would it possible to move it outside the video ( besides the other controls)? Excellent App, I use it almost everyday. **Developer response:** Great! Thanks for 5-star rating. hope it can help you dance better and better! As of Draw function, you can drag the Edit Bar onto anywhere else of the screen when you think it is in the way. ### 5/5 — So far the best from Apple Store. It works as expected. *2023-12-30, version 4.9* So far the best from Apple Store. It works as expected. ### 5/5 — Sehr Gut *2023-01-13* Macht alles super schnell. Eine sehr gute App **Developer response:** Thank you for 5-star rating. Hope you can do more with this app. ### 5/5 — My favorite App *2022-08-19* If you are into dancing, this app is an excellent tool. We use this app to review our dance patterns one step at the time. It is a game changer. Thank you. **Developer response:** Great! Thanks for 5-star rating. hope it can help you dance better and better! ### 5/5 — Thanks! *2021-06-02, version 3.5* This app is exactly what I’m looking for!! ### 5/5 — Gefällt mir *2020-09-08* Macht genau was sie soll, ohne Schnickschnack! **Developer response:** Thank you so much for 5-star rating. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
