### 4/5 — Volume stopped working

*2026-09-22, version 8.5.0*

this app works great and I’ve been using it for almost a year and it recently fully updated just stop having control over the volume

### 3/5 — Audio playback stops

*2026-07-31*

I use this in the gym when I don’t have my iPhone connected, it works okay but when I ask it to randomise the music it plays one or two and then stops needing a restart. Very buggy and need some more development.

### 2/5 — It won’t go to the next video

*2025-12-01*

It stopped playing the next videos since the last update. Watch version 26.1
It just plays one video of the playlist and just stop.

### 3/5 — Can’t scrub

*2025-11-20, version 8.3.1*

Not bad, but I can’t scrub through the video. I also wish I could stream from my phone to the watch instead of having to save it to the watch, since storage is limited. Still, it does play video, so I’m thankful.

### 4/5 — Please update app for iOS 26

*2025-11-09*

Nike Running app always pause Videwatch and it’s crashing too much since iOS update

### 4/5 — Works well, & well worth the price

*2025-11-03, version 8.3.1*

It does what I need it to. Gives sufficient feedback to let me know what’s up with the slow transfer rate to watch, which is not the developer’s fault. The app looks good on my screens.

### 5/5 — Does not work

*2025-10-31, version 8.3.1*

No watch detected .

### 5/5 — تطبيق جبار

*2025-08-30, version 8.3.1*

تطبيق جبار من كل النواحي تقدر تشغل أغنية او مقطع فيديو والصوت كويس وجودة الفيديو جبارة

### 5/5 — 良い⭐️

*2025-07-04, version 8.3.1*

これは買い

### 5/5 — Listening while I walk

*2025-06-16, version 8.3.1*

I really enjoy downloading tracks from my files that are original music that I could listen on the Videwatch app. I really enjoy also downloading other music from other sources that I have that is very convenient to use on my watch. Thanks for your product.

### 5/5 — goat app

*2025-05-19, version 8.3.0*

I passed all the exams with this app😎😎😎

### 4/5 — Good player but…

*2025-04-11, version 8.2.0*

It needs a few changes to make it useable for multiple video files. I could not find a way to make it play all added videos without manual intervention. It should be able to produce an M3U playlist file it can use for videos and the default screen format should be widescreen or at least able to be set globally instead of having to set it for each file. Other than that,  great job.

### 5/5 — とても素晴らしいです

*2025-03-24, version 8.2.0*

できましたら要望なのですが、ダブルタップでの再生や停止ができるようになったらもっといいのにと思いました。よろしくお願い致します。

### 5/5 — 素晴らしい！

*2025-03-16, version 8.1.2*

audiowatchより優れています、
難点はバッテリー消耗、でもこんなアプリが欲しかった。Google pixel Watch３も真似して、ついに Watch本体からスピーカー音出しを始めた！

### 1/5 — Background Playback Issue with Audio Files

*2025-12-08, version 8.3.1*

I use it for audio files, but it doesn't work in the background.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work well

*2025-09-04, version 8.3.1*

The video file is not saved properly.
Moreover, it arbitrarily changes the resolution and size of the video, making the file even larger.

Even when I compress and send a small video under 40MB, the conversion process turns it into a file of over 600MB, which takes much longer to transfer and does not work as intended.

### 1/5 — Very bad

*2025-01-18*

Very bad would not even pop up on my Apple Watch waste of money

### 1/5 — Ya no funciona

*2024-07-04, version 8.1.2*
