Moreover, if you want to share video knowledge or your clips, we are very happy to see you in our Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/WriteonVideo ### 2/5 — Ok *2021-12-09, version 8.5* Its ok ### 3/5 — AP *2020-11-13, version 8.3* Great app just a little confusing xx ### 3/5 — Please, add less premium features *2020-10-06, version 8.2* You can’t put premium on the most necessary things ### 2/5 — It was decent but WHY DO YOU HAVE ACCESS TO MY GOOGLE ACCOUNT?! *2020-08-20, version 8.1* The app was fine at editing but the features were limited. WHY DID I GET A MESSAGE SAYING YOU HAVE ACCESS TO MY GOOGLE ACCOUNT!? So kindly let go of everyones google accounts because they don't belong to you. ### 2/5 — Used to love it but now I’m not too sure *2020-07-12* I used this back in 2018, and while it was janky, it was pretty decent for what it was was, and the problems were things I can work around easily. However, now with the updated UI and gutted features, I don’t know how sure how I feel about it. Along with that, there’s a major glitch that basically makes it useless. 1. They cut out the ability to split videos. Sure, you can crop/trim them, but I remember there used to be a button allowing you to split the video in 2 of where the scrubber line was. I loved that feature, but now? It’s gone, and I don’t see why. 2. Editing text boxes is a pain. I don’t see how they messed this one up. You used to be able to change text sizes, and change the box itself horizontally and vertically. Now, you can only zoom it in and back out. Once again, a really good feature they took out for no reason 3. The glitch that literally makes it useless. So, today out of nowhere, I was starting a new project, and I tried to add an image, which was the first thing I tried. Then it said “failed to download project.” I tried deleting the app, trying a video, restarting my phone, and nothing worked. This glitch basically made the app useless. Hopefully this gets fixed soon. **Developer response:** Hi Damián Ramos, thank you for your support and comment. We are sorry that the app does not perform as you expected. We feedback you suggestion about the video trim, text editing, and glitch to the team. Did this notification,""failed to download the project", pop out when you tried to download images that were saved on iCloud? ### 2/5 — ??? *2020-05-29, version 8.1* I’m not sure if this is really the right app to get because it says that do you want to get the pro stuff and I press cancel but now it’s not letting me edit any thing because it always asks if I want to get the pro stuff ### 3/5 — Is good *2020-04-03, version 8.0* The bad thing is that you can’t do anything if you don’t buy the year plan ### 3/5 — Nice *2019-10-27, version 7.7* It’s good, but when I try to download my video to photos to put on YouTube, it always stops at 97% or 99%. It is a really good editing software, but it won’t let me do what I want. I would maybe recommend. Maybe I’m just doing something wrong. Idk. ### 4/5 — No Undo *2019-06-20, version 7.6* :( ### 4/5 — I Love This App *2019-06-06* I Love This App it’s very good at editing but when you have about a 5 minute video of more it would take like 30 minutes another thing is when I add a picture sometime it would put it out of place or delete please fix this Thank you. **Developer response:** Hello, thanks for review.

Meanwhile all the crappy video editing functions I did not want are free. Yay. If you want a video editor there are much better apps and if you want draw on videos as advertised, this is way too expensive and full of unnecessary cumbersome crap. ### 1/5 — Weird glitches make videos STINK. *2020-02-04* I would have liked this app if there weren’t many glitches. I made my own name for them, and there are 3 I need to list. 1. The Black-Out Glitch In this glitch, when you’re editing, the video randomly turns black. There is no sound and everything is gone. 2. The Mess-Up Glitch In this glitch, when you export the video, it’s all messed up. It’s trash. The captions get all weird. 3. The Frozen Caption Glitch In this glitch, as soon as you add an animated caption, your screen freezes. That’s it. I don’t want to be mean but I’m still giving it one star. Please fix these glitches. Thank you. 😕 ### 1/5 — No sence *2019-12-23, version 7.7* Dosent let me do enyting ### 1/5 — How do you use it *2019-08-08, version 7.6* How do you add videos. Can you even do that??? ### 1/5 — I read some of the reviews and decided to have a go *2019-05-20, version 7.6* I got the app and it looked professional. I understand you want people to buy the app and use it. I wanted to see how easy it was to use before spending £45. You enter the app and almost immediately asked to pay £45 to even see the app. Why not just charge people when they download it. It sounds like a hard app to operate anyway. Deleted and moved on to KineMaster it much easier to use and you can see and use all the functions. You can even use it for free. ### 1/5 — 👎👎👎👎👎👎 *2018-12-29, version 7.1* I used this app for about a month and it began to glitch so I no longer use it ### 1/5 — Terrible *2018-12-27* Very confusing. Have no idea how to get a video from my files to write on. Every other button I push is them trying to push an extremely expensive subscription with them. I don’t even want the free trial. Mainly because it’s already impossible without the extra stuff. **Developer response:** Hello, thanks for the feedback. Write-on Video is an ad-free app, we rely on subscription fee to maintain and improve the product. However, the basic features are available for non-subscribers too. There are filters, transitions, stickers, brushes even without subscription plan. Subscription is only an option for users to choose if they need more advanced features. You can dismiss the subscription button if it is not what you want. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — :) *2022-02-18, version 8.5* It is easy but allot of stuff you have to by ### 5/5 — Amazing, but needs major fixing *2022-02-07, version 8.5* So this is a good software if you’re on a budget but for some reason it just refuses to put anymore videos/photos on the pod and it’s really really REALLY annoying. The good qualities of this are, a small watermark, an easy way to edit, a direct connection to your cameras roll, and a direct connection to YouTube, TikTok, etc. ### 5/5 — I like to do short videos *2021-12-24, version 8.5* It’s a great app ### 5/5 — Amazing!!! *2021-05-16, version 8.4* This is the best app for creating credible tv ready commercials! ### 5/5 — Excellent app *2021-03-27, version 8.3* Found it very easy to use and I worked it out in a very short amount of time😀 Definitely get it! ### 5/5 — Underrated *2020-04-20, version 8.0* This deserves more downloads ### 5/5 — I love it *2020-04-02, version 8.0* It's one of my favourite apps that I have on my tablet ### 5/5 — Easy to edit videos! *2020-02-27* I like it so far. Captions, stickers, filters, zoom in and out, easy cut and edit, intuitive interface. **Developer response:** Hello, Thanks for your support! We are happy that our product makes your life easier!
