### 5/5 — No off-line capability

*2025-12-24*

After you download the app, you have to have a constant connection in order to save videos after you edit. Lame

### 1/5 — Неполноценная программа

*2025-08-04*

Полная ерунда, вместо растяжения или сужения видео просто обрезает края и получается середина видео!

### 5/5 — Great

*2025-02-16*

Thank you for a brilliant app so simple so good

### 3/5 — Absturz

*2024-12-09*

Hat bisher gut funktioniert aber nach dem bearbeiten zeigt es immer eine Fehlermeldung an wenn ich speichern möchte! Was da los?

### 1/5 — Need an update

*2024-06-13, version 2.6*

App keeps crashing

### 1/5 — Not working anymore

*2024-02-28*

All this app does is crash, sadly doesn’t work anymore.

### 2/5 — How and why

*2023-11-03*

How to email a video from here? There isn’t a clue. Why is the zoom slider not visible while shooting a video? It was in the past….discouraging

### 1/5 — No audio

*2022-03-29*

Is it really not possible to have audio? I want to zoom in based on things being said in the video, but audio doesn’t work in the app. You just have to edit the soundless video, which makes it much harder to do (impossible for me). Wasted money.

### 4/5 — Zoom works!

*2022-02-08*

Not sure about other features, but post-recording zoom feature is great to have! Thanks!

### 1/5 — Impossible to use

*2021-11-17, version 2.6*

So trash skip this
