### 2/5 — Dumb app

*2026-07-27, version 1.5.31*

I want more time to record I made a video and it has five seconds maybe less and I’m not paying for the pro it’s so much money

### 2/5 — Where are my videos

*2026-02-28, version 1.5.29*

I love this video app. I’ve created videos with little clips of different life events. I exported to save a beautiful memorial and exported it and it is not in any of my folders. I’m quiet savvy with this type of stuff. But would love to know if they have any type of recovery system. This video I exported and is now lost.. is so special. Had I known it would be lost, I would have screen recorded it. Any help, please.

### 4/5 — Could be better

*2026-02-07, version 1.5.29*

I got this app and I was suuuuupppeerrrrrrrr excited for it but it says I CAN ONLY USE IT FOR 6 FREAKING SECONDS LIKE BRO🥲 WHY DO YALL DO THIS? Please fix this

### 3/5 — Great features but too low resolution.

*2025-07-20*

I cancelled my subscription because of the low quality of the exported film. 135Mo input, 33Mo output this was too low for a 1080 movie. Sad because the effects are stunning. So whoever doesn’t care about the quality of the export (Messenger or WhatsApp) will be pleased with this app.

### 4/5 — loved it until….

*2025-07-09, version 1.5.29*

Loved using the app and putting videos already filmed into it to give it that “vintage” feel until I see they decided to upgrade and now you have to pay.. huge disappointment to say the least

### 2/5 — 以前は

*2024-10-14, version 1.5.27*

1本ずつなら撮影した動画を無課金でも保存できていたのにもう出来なくなったんですね。

### 4/5 — Simulates a real vintage camera

*2024-05-04, version 1.5.26*

I've grown to like this app.. The free version is pretty much useless. But the paid version is good! Keep in mind, this is not a video editor..You shoot the movie exactly how u would shoot it on a vintage movie camera - in order with stopping and starting camera for your scene cuts. You are allowed up to a five minute movie in total. You can export it anywhere you wish. There are many different filter camera styles to choose from, and many film 'noise' options..
 The only thing I don't like is the small size of the finished videos.. Bit other than that, this app
Gives a very realistic simulation of a vintage movie camera..

### 2/5 — Limited capabilities

*2024-05-03*

I really wanted to like this app.. 
I downloaded it and like the look of the filters, so I got the PRO version immediately. BUT. The screen size of the finished videos is TINY. I exported the video into a proper video editor, but the vid was soooo small.. 
Also this app has no editing features other than selecting a video filter...
 I canceled my subscription  within 15 minutes..
I expected much more from this app :-(

### 1/5 — Bruh, I wish I could give a minus 100 out of 10

### 1/5 — Terrible🤬

*2025-08-13, version 1.5.29*

I got this app and I was suuuuupppeerrrrrrrr excited for it but it says I CAN ONLY USE IT FOR 6 FREAKING SECONDS LIKE BRO🥲 WHY DO YALL DO THIS? FRICK YALL

### 1/5 — Poor Navigation Poor Instructions

*2025-04-20, version 1.5.29*

App doesn't save imported video for old film conversion. Says it does, but once imported it won't save or export. Junk app. Only for real time video recordings. False advertising.👎🏼

### 1/5 — Didn’t work properly

*2025-01-21, version 1.5.29*

Used it for a music video and it made the timing go off and it made it go really out of focus as well. Oh, and I couldn’t even save it to my phone hahaha

### 1/5 — 15.2.9 Not working

*2024-12-13, version 1.5.29*

Latest version 15.2.9 crashes instantly on startup. The app is now unusable. Sorry but I simply can't understand developers not properly testing their apps before rushing out new updates! 

Iphone 13 Pro Max/IOS 18.2

### 1/5 — Front camera is inverse

*2024-11-26*

The front camera is coming inverse in paid version. Can you fix this

### 1/5 — App no longer works

App no longer open on IOS 12.7 since today  Nov 16 2024 update?

### 1/5 — Expensive

*2024-07-01, version 1.5.26*

Money mpney mobey

### 1/5 — Stop making me pay money

*2024-05-08, version 1.5.26*

I like it if there is no VIP or didn’t had to pay $60, so you can make at least a five minute video. Every film could only have like a few second video. if you don’t play  60 dollars.

### 1/5 — Worst App I’ve ever purchased

*2024-02-07, version 1.5.26*

Don’t purchase this app, it’s absolutely awful. If I could give it zero stars I would.
