I’m unable to edit actions for quick downloads. So when downloading from Twitter, I’d have to go through safari first then copy a link which would be much easier if I could simply send the link to the app. Also, when scrolling through videos, in order to move them to my camera roll, I have to pick one by one. It would be nicer to just multi select and move. Other than these few issues, I enjoy this app very much. It’s the only app I would consider purchasing a full version for because it actually downloads instead of screws with your head about it. Thanks much! ### 4/5 — Dee *2022-04-12, version 2.3* I’m following copy link then paste in the url bar... but I don’t see the download tab popup like I use to. Please help. I have subscribed your service .. The app didn’t work so I deleted and then redownloaded it however the pop up Download feature is not there any more. How do I download??? ### 4/5 — Not bad. *2022-01-27, version 2.3* Overall this isn’t that bad, it does what you need it to do. The ads are a little annoying but you can’t get around that if you don’t pay for it. Wish I could download from more sites tho. (Pssst! if you don’t know already, you can delete and reinstall the app to clear your downloads so you get unlimited downloads without having to pay) ### 3/5 — Love this app however its not working for me as of right now *2021-09-24, version 2.3* I love this app when I want to save my favorite videos to my phone. Have been using this for at least 2 years with no problems however it’s not working for me anymore. When I go to preview what I copied to save it to my phone, it just goes black and I can’t save anything. I tried deleting and reinstalling, however this has not fixed the problem. Hoping this can get fixed as I will change my review when it does! ### 3/5 — Difficult to use *2021-05-10, version 2.3* There is no clear way on how to use this thing to download videos from a web url. You just have to long press random areas of the screen until you get the prompt to download the file, but it mostly just selects random text in the screen. ### 4/5 — Understand No I just don’t *2021-04-13, version 2.3* I’m sorry but I don’t know what I am doing I just don’t understand why I am not getting this app. I have tried obviously to get it to work but I am not doing something right. I’m sorry but I might just have to delete it because I’m frustrated with it. I know that I am the one that has the problem with it because it’s not the app itself so if someone else could email me and help me get it right or except to me please what I am doing wrong. I would greatly appreciate it, but if that’s not something that you can do I’ll get red of it I guess. Thanks! ### 3/5 — Great app but... *2021-04-10, version 2.3* Great app but when opening browser it keeps opening on one particular page despite visiting a ton of websites after the fact. There should be a way to clear your search history or the app should open in a new browser when opening fresh. There is no help option or tutorial so it’s just you wing it. Also, there should be a trash folder to recover accidentally deleted videos you have saved. ### 4/5 — BEST APP FOR THE JOB!! *2020-11-12, version 2.3* This is one of the best apps I have ever downloaded. It works regardless of if you pay or not, and you can download media from anywhere. Better than any other repost/download apps in the AppStore by far. My only complaint is the download time, but the rest is amazing and I 100% recommend it! ### 3/5 — Not that good anymore *2020-08-28, version 2.3* App use to be able to download videos from multiple websites. Now i cant download them anymore. They need to put a download button instead of just opening the site or link and it automatically gives you the option to say yes or no. Sometimes that auto download doesnt even open at all when it use to. When you do download videos they are converted to .mov not .mp4. ### 4/5 — Pretty good! *2020-08-24, version 2.3* I think there’s a limit to how many videos you can download and store then you gotta pay for the full version. That’s fine. I usually just download something new and delete whatever to make room instead if an album gets played out. That way I can keep what I like. ### 4/5 — Love it, BUT! *2020-08-20, version 2.3* PLEASE add a payment where you can remove the ads only, instead of just having pro membership! The pro membership is very expensive and will draw people away from making a purchase because of its price! If you create a option where you can just remove the ads if you pay, more people will definitely buy this instead of pro, because the ads are the only annoying thing about the app, so people will be happy to pay to get rid of them! I know I’ll pay to get rid of the ads, but I’ll never pay for that expensive pro membership! Thank you if you end up making this change to your app! & thank you for creating this app in the first place, it has been quite nice! -From Luluenna ### 4/5 — Excellent except for folder issues *2020-07-27, version 2.3* The entire purpose of making a folder is to seperate the vids inside the folder from the vids outside the folder, yet when i watch everything in the folder once rather than looping the contents of the folder the app automatically plays the vids outside the folder which defeats the purpose of me making a folder in the first place. But this is a minor problem with a simple fix (make it so that the folder automatically loops itself until the user stops looping it) ### 3/5 — it would be 5 stars but it’s not working anymore *2020-06-07, version 2.2* Let’s me start off by saying I’ve been using the free version of this app for over a year. I haven’t had any problems with it what so ever, i just copy links from instagram and download the video to my phone. But, as of today, the app closes off when i press the preview button. I’ve downloaded and deleted the app multiple times but nothing is working. Please fix this. ### 4/5 — I like it but there are issues *2020-03-12, version 2.1* I’ve had this app for 2 months, and bought the monthly subscription. The browser is a little glitchy. The videos I get are really good. Nothing wrong on that front. The main problem I have is that when you save videos, after you delete them, the videos stay on the phone. You can’t access them or you can but only view them continuously. I’ve had to delete the app and reinstall it. Other minor issues are the crashes, and sometimes the app will have you download an ad. Those problems happen once in a great while. Another issue is the bookmarks or saved websites don’t load. My main purpose is to save videos that I have access to, and this apps does that. There has been no issues with the videos. And I would recommend but proceed with caution. These issues do pile up especially the use I put the app through. ### 3/5 — don’t force to buy pro *2019-12-29, version 2.1* when i first downloaded the app it was great! i understood it well and it really helped with downloading my editing audios. then the new update came out and then it started saying the video storage was full, and that i needed to buy the pro version if i wanted to download more videos. i don’t want to spend money so i thought that if i deleted some old videos i would have more storage, but nope. no matter how many videos i delete it still says that i need to boy people version. this is INCREDIBLY stupid and i’d recommend that the app would fix it. ### 2/5 — You ruined it with the ads *2019-12-07, version 2.0* I used to love this app it was so handy to have, but now I’m searching for a new one. The ads have just gotten ridiculous I get two on startup, one on loading a video and then two more after I start a download. All those plus a banner ad, 6 ads in less then 30 seconds. You can’t even be making money off half of those ads because they are just for yourself. 👎 ### 4/5 — Storage *2019-12-04, version 2.0* I love the app and I have to say it works great for downloading videos but when you delete a video from the app it doesn’t actually delete it which makes me constantly delete and reinstall the app. Please fix this issue and I can guarantee this rating will become 5 star. ### 2/5 — What happened... *2019-11-30, version 2.0* I used to use this app every single day. You used to be able to download so many videos on here and listen to your hearts content. Now you can only get 5 videos, and you have to pay for the rest? And worst part, to be able to get the full version for a “one time purchas,” its $100. That’s really over priced, ESPECIALLY since it was free before. Sorry, but there are better apps out there now 🥱☹️😞💔 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work like it used to *2020-12-01, version 2.3* I had the app last year and it worked with video platforms and I could download videos. Now when I paste the link to the video in the bar instead of going to the video and the download button popping up it says there aren’t any good matches but the video will be just below that but when I click on that instead of letting me download it switches to the video app where I can’t download. I feel like they either got sued or bought out by that particular video platform owned by a certain giant search engine. ### 1/5 — Frustrating *2020-04-09, version 2.2* I’ve had this app for 4 months now. The last 3 months I spend 30min a day, playing a Wack-a-Mole game of trying to press the Save my video button that’s half covered with an ad hoping the ad doesn’t pop up first. After 30mins it MIGHT work and take me on to my video. I’ve pressed the Pay For Premium button but it never takes me to the next page so that I can pay! I don't know what to do except delete this app and find another. ### 1/5 — After update everything changed *2019-11-02, version 2.0* Before the most recent update, I would give this app 5 stars no doubt. But ever since the new update, the app closes itself all the time, became very laggy, and videos don’t have sound. Also it doesn’t save the browser page I was on when I close the app like it used to. When I close the app, it sends me back to a blank address bar. So every time the app shuts down on me, I have to re-enter the browser website I was on. ### 1/5 — Um *2019-09-26, version 1.5.6* I managed to download one video and then the app proceeds to not let me download anything else. It seemingly downloaded all of my requested videos, yet upon clicking them there was nothing. After 20 minutes of developing frustration, constant bombardment with the pushy app’s payment plan and its request to rate their app every two minutes... I decided that... Yes... I will write you a review... Whether I had a certain amount I could download and I met that limit, or the app was malfunctioning; it didn’t state an issue on downloading another video after it had worked moments ago. Your app seems to run smoothly and work well in retrieving clips from all the files, but I have never been so annoyed at a pushy payment plan and the app’s inconsistency. ### 1/5 — Monthly fee taken out automatically and I can’t use this app. Please fix *2019-07-01, version 1.5.5* Please help fix this problem. I purchased the monthly at 5.99 on 5/29 and it charges me every month. So iTunes charged my monthly fee again yesterday on 6/29 and when I went to use this app this morning it has the screen that pops up to pay. I paid already and I would like my access to use the app fixed. I will change my 1 star to 5 stars as soon as you fix this problem. Thank you ### 1/5 — Ehh , it’s ok *2019-06-11, version 1.5.5* I’ve only downloaded three videos from this app since my other app no longer worked. I’m trying to find a new one and found this app. I was only able to download three videos and now it no longer lets me download videos. Whenever I’m trying to download a video, this thing pops up and says for me to pay for unlimited membership, which I do not want. I just want to repost videos. But due to that not working out, I might have to find a new app. 😭😭😭 ### 1/5 — Can’t download videos without payment *2019-06-10, version 1.5.5* When I downloaded this app, I could download videos for free and stream those downloads without internet. You can no longer do this. If you try to add more videos, you receive an automatic pop up asking for payment (saying you’ll be able to stream and download without ads if you do). On the top right of this pop up is a “skip” button. Pressing it will bring you back to your downloads screen, without allowing you to add more. ### 1/5 — Scam *2019-06-01, version 1.5.5* This app was plagued with ads, you couldn’t watch a video without having an ad take a quarter of the screen. But now it’s worse. Now you have to PAY a monthly subscription fee to use this app to download content that the greedy developer doesn’t even make. What a scam. I’m deleting this application immediately. I would be okay with a one time $1-2 fee, but monthly? For what? The app is extremely basic and the only updates are to make users pay. Seriously, the functionality hasn’t changed in over 2 years, only the fees do. This is the kind of garbage that bogs down the App Store. ### 1/5 — DO NOT UPDATE THIS APP IF YOU HAVE ANYTHING LESS THAN THE CURRENT VERSION *2019-05-29, version 1.5.5* As title says, I should know better - you never should update if something isn’t broken, but I just updated this app and it can’t be used anymore now. When you try to import anything or go to a web address or anything it says you either have to pay them three dollars a week three or four times that a month or a one time payment of $100. There is no option to use this app at all anymore, you can use it with whatever you currently have but not for anything new so the app is officially dead ### 1/5 — Still Has Adds. Zero Stars if I could. *2019-05-25, version 1.5.4* So I decided to give this App a try and paid for the 1 week subscription for no ads. After making the purchase many ads still appeared. I tried hitting the button to Restore Purchases and that did not help. I closed the App and reopened it again. The ads appeared to be gone until I pressed on the small X in the bottom right corner then a giant Ad for Audible popped open. What a disgrace. I will be addressing this with the devolopers. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Frustrating *2022-08-11, version 2.3* I have switched to pro and restored my purchase; however, it keeps giving these annoying ads and still limits the number of videos I can download. It’s so frustrating!! ### 5/5 — Passcode doesn’t work properly *2022-06-07, version 2.3* Like the app for downloading videos, it does a pretty good job at this. However, when you add a passcode, all you have to do is swipe down the passcode page and you have access to the videos. Please make the passcode work properly, thank you. ### 5/5 — Very good quality and user friendly *2021-06-23, version 2.3* I have used this app on and off for a number of years, and I have never had any significant issues. Simply said: The app just gets the job done. I love that this app allows me to maneuver through it and utilize its features with very little effort. It’s not only Extremely user friendly, it Also provides step by step instruction in case you need it. There are a ton of other video downloaded apps out there, but due to the solid, consistent video downloading and saving capabilities, I always end up right back here with this app! 5 stars! Two thumbs up!! ### 5/5 — Very good *2021-04-10, version 2.3* every single time i try to download a video on a other app it doesnt with this app it lets me export my videos into my photos so i can use it for videos and edit. This app is very helpful 10/10 very good recommended ### 5/5 — This is amazing *2020-10-29, version 2.3* This is the ABSOLUTE BEST video downloading software on iOS. It’s free and easy. It takes 3-5 SECONDS to download any length video (even 1 hour or more). All yo need to do is copy the link, paste it into “repost video” and then download and then boom you have a video that you can download. It’s that simple! ### 5/5 — 👎🏼- the passcode doesn’t work *2020-07-29, version 2.3* The whole point of the password is so someone who doesn’t know it can’t see the videos/pictures.. Rightt, but for me all you have to do is swipe down and you can see everything. ### 5/5 — WORST APP EVER DO NOT BUY AT ALL COSTS *2019-12-22, version 2.1* This app is really bad because if the ads and most of the vids that I download in the app just become deleted instantly and can’t be downloaded and the app-purchases are just too much - reviewer don’t make the same mistake I did just ignore this app ok, good (the only reason why it’s rated 5 stars is because it will bring attention of this to others). ### 5/5 — A Great App For Saving Videos And More! *2019-08-25, version 1.5.6* I guess I pretty much explained it in the title, it’s great for saving videos if you want to watch them offline or use them in your own videos! The only problem I have is that you can’t do a heck of a lot without having to upgrade to the “premium” thing or whatever, but I don’t need the app for much, so it’s fine. ### 5/5 — Best and Easiest way to Download Videos *2019-08-22, version 1.5.6* This app has allowed me to save a lot of hilarious videos straight to my device (with an extra step but it’s super easy) and it works every time. I’d lose all the laughs I’ve had at these videos forever if it weren’t for this app. 10/10 ### 5/5 — Does Exactly What It Says It Does *2019-05-02, version 1.5.4* If you’re looking for a video downloder, look no further. It does it quick, efficiently, and it’s easy to use. Riddled with ads, but still very usable. I have been able to save so much thanks to this app, and I haven’t found anything better. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
