4,400원 표시가 나오네요 

아무리 돈독에 올랐다고 해도 그렇지 이거 너무 한 거 아닙니끼? 

한번 샀는데 이 어플 지우면 매번 다시 돈 주고 사라는 겁니까?

### 5/5 — Una actualización por favor

*2023-11-19, version 2.1.1*

Funciona bien, la uso bastante para optimizar el espacio en videos, pero siempre una actualización después de tantos años es bueno para mejorar el rendimiento de la aplicación con sistema operativo y el dispositivo que estamos usando….si puede ser actualice por favor

*2020-12-02, version 2.1.1*

급해서 그냥 눈에 보이는거 샀는데 대박 잘 줄여줘요 ㅜㅜ 덕분에 살았네요!! 감사합니다 ㅎㅎ

### 5/5 — Video Kompressor

*2020-11-01, version 2.1.1*

Einfacher geht es wirklich nicht mehr!

### 5/5 — Сжать видео

*2020-09-24, version 2.1.1*

Хорошее приложение!

### 5/5 — Fantastic!

*2020-09-15, version 2.1.1*

Since the  iPhone 5s I've been using this app to lighten up the long videos and its fantastic! Works good and its a very needed even though the iPhones get more and more gb the internet is crapy anyway and storing heavy videos to iCloud is not fun at all. I really hope one day iPhones will get a micro micro sd card and to get rid of this data eater/ battery eater iCloud thing.

### 5/5 — Practico

*2020-08-31, version 2.1.1*

Me gusto, super fácil. Como debe ser

### 5/5 — Muito bom

*2020-04-29, version 2.1.1*

Show recomendo

### 5/5 — Super app

*2020-04-05, version 2.1.1*

I record videos for different reasons and purposes, this application allows me to change the video size depending on my needs, for example I don’t want 4K video to record pretty much a message where the image quality is totally irrelevant and viceversa I don’t want a message video when I just want to appreciate the image quality. It is all about balance and this application is really good, I can reduce 1GB video to 12MB in 25 seconds and share by email, of course at those levels of compression the image gets downgraded but what if you just want the video message? You can also compress 1080 to 720 or 480 or any combination. 
1000THANKS  to the developers and excuse my English for my mother tongue is Spanish but not sure if you will get my expression of appreciation if in Spanish.

### 5/5 — Excelente ! ! !

*2020-01-28, version 2.1*

Especialmente o Shrinker possui elevada capacidade de compactação de vídeo.

### 5/5 — 업뎃하고나서 압축해도 문자나 카톡으로 보내려고하면 용량크다고 안보내져요.

*2019-06-13, version 2.1*

왜 안보내지는거죠???
