### 2/5 — Frustrating bugs

*2026-03-08, version 7.0.0*

I was so optimistic but … bugs saving recordings

### 4/5 — We’ll see

*2025-08-03, version 6.0.1*

So far it seems good, but I haven’t seen the uploaded video

### 3/5 — got to trim screen capture

*2025-07-24, version 6.0.1*

read about Zight and downloaded due to review saying a screen capture may be trimmed and edited.  I am unable to edit screen captures with this product.

### 4/5 — Where’s the sound

*2025-07-09, version 6.0.1*

I got this app to record videos with sound SOUND and it doesn’t record sound

### 3/5 — Desktop Version Stability

*2025-04-27, version 6.0.1*

I have owned this software for years now and the desktop app has many issues that cause it to crash with the only fix I can ever use is to uninstall, download again and reinstall. Probably once per month at least

### 2/5 — Please read!

*2025-04-20, version 6.0.1*

All I’m going to say is that there is no sound at all

### 4/5 — Fix the login, man

*2024-12-21, version 6.0.1*

Its been years and the login process for email/pass is 3rd world. Cmon.

### 2/5 — Time kills all apps

*2024-10-30, version 6.0.1*

Loved this app when it was first released and as time went on it just got worse. Not worth the download. There are better options

### 4/5 — Great help

*2024-06-07, version 6.0.1*

Helpful support team!

### 1/5 — SCAM!!!!!!!!!!

*2024-04-06, version 6.0.0*

I just wanted to see what this app was and its not what I though it was for but it automatically put me on a teams account which is definitely not what I needed. It doesn’t let me just go cancel my account. This is a scam 1000% and if they don’t cancel my account I’m going to the BBB over it

### 1/5 — Trying to use this on iPad

*2024-01-09, version 5.0.4*

I am trying to use this on my iPad and the video from a screen record is skewed and stretched. Why does this seem to be common with these iPad apps? I'm trying to use this for my business and this isn't going to allow me to get a high quality video. I'm definitely not purchasing it if this is the final result. Any tips? Since it's rendered ineffective I am giving it a 1-star rating but willing to update if tech has a solution.

### 1/5 — Scammmmmmmmmm

*2023-10-25, version 5.0.4*

Do

### 1/5 — I’m glad I didn’t pay for it

*2023-01-02, version 5.0.4*

It’s not compatible with my shortcuts or phone or iOS or something but I can’t make shortcuts to my iCloud files

### 1/5 — Cant get it to work on my IPad

*2021-05-21, version 1.4.0*

I can record a video and watch it but after that the screen freezes I cannot delete send or do anything.

### 1/5 — Awful UX in iOS

*2026-05-06, version 7.0.0*

Version 7 in iOS is shockingly bad for UX. 

It has no search, and you can’t even see the titles of the drops in the Home folder. 

I have thousands of items in my account from 6+ years of being a user and I can’t be expected to scroll through endless 2x4 grids of thumbnails without even a title on them to find the link of the one I need to send a client. 

It’s the same with the desktop app. At least there I can quickly launch my browser but you can’t even log in via web in iOS, it forces you to download the app making the entire service I pay for USELESS ON MOBILE. 

I don’t care about storing my screenshots or photos. I care about accessing my stored items, and in iOS it’s currently impossible. 

*I’m using an iPhone 15pro with the latest iOS and zight versions as of this review.

### 1/5 — Terrible customer service

*2026-04-11, version 7.0.0*

I have sent two emails to Customer Service and two video emails through their system because they said that would get a faster response and I have gotten nothing. And this has been in the last five days. All I want is my account to reflect what I paid for when I purchased it via App Sumo. And that hasn’t happened.

### 1/5 — Ios zight

*2026-02-19, version 7.0.0*

Useless. macOS brilliant

### 1/5 — Lol

*2026-02-17, version 7.0.0*

Useless app that doesnt actually do a single thing it says it does.

### 1/5 — Worthless for years on end

*2025-12-19, version 7.0.0*

Black screen on open.  iOS 26.1.  Fools.  They make tens of millions a month and don’t have the brains or talent to get a simple iOS app to work? Worse forces you to login 100% of every time you ever open the app. Time vampires. Makes me sick.  You deserves less than zero stars

### 1/5 — Can’t for the life of me figure out how to cancel

*2025-09-17, version 7.0.0*

Self explanation

### 1/5 — Sight is trash

*2025-04-18, version 6.0.1*

Doesn’t let me do anything and doesn’t show anything to help don’t use it.waist of time.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2024-12-07, version 6.0.1*

Tried the trial and could never try it as it never uploaded video…always showing uploading. Deleted from phone due to inability to actually use it!

### 1/5 — FAILS @ Nearly Every Function except…

*2024-09-16, version 6.0.1*

You Get What You Pay For! Zight on my iPad Pro does ONLY one thing well - adding items from my Photos app. I have removed it twice from my iPad and reinstalled it, no change. Plus it does allow me Delete. I have read more than once its instructions, which provided no solutions. I want it to record my screen with sound. I want it to allow video clip editing. I want it save clips to iCloud/Dropbox/or an IPad folder. Almost forgot, play a video afterwards FREEZES!    Gotta Move On!

### 1/5 — Why is this in my downloaded apps!?

*2024-07-04, version 6.0.1*

I NEVERRRRRR downloaded this app onto my iPhone, nor my MacBook Air 2015 laptop!!!! Plus, my MacBook Air laptop has been disconnected from my appleID for at least a year now, if not longer, so if this is because it was downloaded onto the MacBook prior to my purchase of the secondhand/refurbished MacBook Air, then it shouldn’t have been linked to my AppleID NOR my iPhone or MacBook altogether at that, because I did a clean fresh reset of the MacBook device before logging my appleID into it, so no matter which way you look at it, THIS APP SHOULD NOT HAVE EVER BEEN IN MY LIST OF DOWNLOADED APPS TO BEGIN WITH BECAUSE I DID NOT DOWNLOAD THIS MYSELF!!!!! 

Sick and tired of Apple and everyone saying that iPhones and Apple devices can’t be hacked and that it’s supposedly “impossible”; it is NOT impossible to hack Apple devices, because clearly mine has been hacked!!!

### 5/5 — Don’t change anything

*2025-03-25, version 6.0.1*

Literally only used the app for a few minutes, NEED IT.

### 5/5 — Question for you guys

*2025-02-22, version 6.0.1*

Hi! I just got Zight a few minutes ago and I was screen recording Kawaii world and when I checked the video, it shows black. The only viewable part is the one on my Home Screen. My dad told me that some apps are restricted to videos and cannot be recorded. I would like to know, what apps are allowed to screen record with your app?

### 5/5 — THIS IS SO GOOD

*2025-02-02, version 6.0.1*

I just started this app and it is SO good! I also wanna ask you some questions.Does this app include money to pay.IT IS VERY GOOD!
