I can’t get it for free cuz… your know pls can u make them free? ### 3/5 — The animation button for iPad is not supported *2025-06-13* I was trying to make a good effect, but you had to animate the effect which video pad does not have on iPad. It’s only for iMac not iPad and then ai thinks you can do it, but you actually can’t. so this needs improvement. **Developer response:** Hello, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.

Quand on fait glisser les clips dans la séquence parfois ils se mettent au début, parfois ils se mettent à la fin, les déplacements des clips sur la timeline de la séquence sont pas du tout pratiques. Ça devient vite prise de tête quand on a plus de 4 clips à mettre bout à bout.. Pas de bouton stop, pause, retour au début. C’est dommage car les applications de montage légères se font rares.. ### 3/5 — THIS APP *2024-04-15* I love this app it’s soo cool and I am starting a new YouTube channel so this app is very helpful I couldn’t write a big review but I hope you like my review ### 4/5 — 日本語版があれば、言うことなし！ *2023-12-29* この動画編集ソフトは、プロカメラマンが使うような機能ばかりで驚きました！。ただし日本語がリリースされたら嬉しいですね。 ### 4/5 — Ganz ok *2023-11-18* I Liebe diese App aber ich finde es erst ein bisschen kompliziert zu verstehen aber super Ding! ### 4/5 — Good app to learn on *2023-09-29* I was new to video production and I found this app easy to learn the ropes. No it’s not perfect but I’m still learning and there are things that frustrate getting things done but you can still produce quality videos with ease. ### 4/5 — In-App Purchases *2023-08-20* I hate In-App Purchases. Just sell me a license to use all the app outright. None of this Blackmail Tactics to extort more money from me so I can use the app without running into a brick wall every time I want to use another part of the app to Finnish the project. In-App Purchases is a bad ideal whose time has come to put an end to it. Be a leader, not a follower, and lead the way to ending In-App Purchases! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Nulle *2026-07-17* Impossible de couper un film. Application très décevante. Puisque j'avais videopad sur mon Mac avant de vendre ce dernier, j'achetais avec confiance. Quelle déception en plus de n'être qu'en anglais. ### 1/5 — Doesn't work *2026-01-02* Never worked ### 1/5 — Glitchy app do not recommend *2025-07-22, version 17.29* When i uploaded a video, the CHANGE THE SPEED. Then when i exported it WAS 8 SECONDS.

First off, the UI is abysmal, theres no way to navigate where you're up to in the video without zooming out and zooming in on a tiny bar (which is incredibly difficult to get right) Additionally, there's seemingly no way to select multiple clips on the tracks in order to mass copy/paste. After 30 minutes of trying to literally just copy/paste a 2 second video file, with the second one reversed to form a longer video loop, I finally exported the file. The export system is seemingly broken. The file was completely distorted, random colours filled the screen in big bars and it was completely unintelligible. Absolutely do not waste your time on this finnicky app, try the desktop version instead which is far better and easier to use, and also has a functioning export system. ### 1/5 — Constantly crashes *2023-01-02, version 12.19* My computer is new and works well but videopad doesnt stop crashing and glitching what a trashy program ### 1/5 — Still bad 2 years on *2022-12-28, version 12.19* Use this on my PC so familiar with it. However it is worse than useless on iPad Pro M2. You can’t drag clips into place which is really key feature that should work. It will move the sound of a clip 10 to 15 sec forward. The scroll bar on the timeline goes really small or really large. It’s a really bad beta version. DaVinci Resolve works on M2 chips and not perfect yet, is free and doesn’t have ads like this does. In fact the pop ads are the only thing that works. If u email the help desk, you have to pay to get an answer but only allowed three questions so that is just an revenue gathering exercise ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — VideoPad *2026-06-27, version 17.37* 100 Stars ### 5/5 — ©️1998 CBS All Rights Reserved *2026-05-17, version 17.37* 1998 (5-90 years old) ### 5/5 — So far so good *2026-05-17* The easiness is good, still learning how to navigate it. ### 5/5 — Add streaminggggg *2026-01-24, version 17.37* Add streamminggg that’s the reason I downloaded itttttt ### 5/5 — GRADIENT EFFECTS *2025-10-18, version 17.37* THANK YOU SO MUCH VIDEOPAD!!!
