Makes it easy all on an iPad

I have a sports camera and have been looking for software to easily do what this does without a huge budget.
This allows me to get the video onto the iPad from the camera, scrub through it, play, pause, mark and then go on, easily removing the marks as the athletes move. Then I share it back to my photos and can upload it to YouTube where the kids watch the game.
It’s more portable than software that needs you to be online to use it and it was MUCH faster to learn.
It seems that there have been. It’s but I’ve seen comments where they got worked out.

Coaches Dream

This is a Coach Dream, me being able to hook up the iPad to a TV is a game changer. Slow-mo or fast-forward and the ability to write and talk text is awesome while showing film. Thank you. I can't wait for more and better updates

App Keeps Crashing

Downloaded the app was excited to use it. I go to play video so I can do a video review stitch. The app keeps crashing.

Coaching

Best app out there for film day for coaching that isn’t $600. Love it!
