  1. [R13] Videoshop 1/5 · US Now one star! Was: Five Star-Super app, learn w practice, personal use and web loading.: 6/4/26 I used the bug feature email to see if I could get them to see mane app errors some weeks ago, they asked for pictures and video and I sent what they asked for and I never had a reply nor were my paid features restored, it still says they have no record of me. So a day or two ago I send another bug r
  2. [R16] Videoshop 1/5 · US Idk what happened: Videoshop used to be may favorite editing app for years. I just opened it & it doesn’t allow me to edit anything from my photo album.
  3. [R21] Videoshop 3/5 · GB Struggling a lot with it: Nice app but I’m struggling because very few weeks the main screen freezes and it doesn’t allow me to do anything with my current projects, and the only buttons that respond and the new project button, settings and the in app purchases.
  4. [R22] Videoshop 1/5 · US I’ve used this for 4 years: I out of now here have been unable to edit, download my projects. Split them, insert. Even Make a video longer than 30 seconds. I’ve used this app for years. I’m so disappointed that I have to leave this review. And this app. And learn a new editing software as I suck at this anyway. But I found love making videos with this app. It was easy to learn and use. please fix
  5. [R28] Videoshop 1/5 · US The best video editing app !: I bought the app many years ago. Updated it and now it will not show anything but the subscription page. This is a great app. What happened I don’t mind losing the money I paid for the app. It was so long ago. I deleted the app and now I can’t get the free version it just wants me to subscribe now. Any suggestions?
  6. [R32] Videoshop 1/5 · US Watermark & Subscription BS!: I had previously bought this app years ago and it worked amazing, but now I have to PAY AGAIN to remove the watermark AND pay a SUBSCRIPTION?
  7. [R34] Videoshop 1/5 · US Was good, Then I got scammed: Bought 9 years ago, worked great through 3 phones, got a new phone last week and it says it doesn’t have any record of my purchase! Even though the app says right on it when I purchased it. Called, emailed, no luck. I’m not going to be sending these scammers any more money, looking for a new video editor.
  8. [R1] Videoshop 1/5 · US Mid: Horrible “Song” choices.
  9. [R3] Videoshop 3/5 · US Copyrighted music?: Been a PAID subscriber since before Covid, tell me WHY am I paying money for copyrighted music that YouTube WILL NOT allow? Video CAN NOT be viewed at all, let alone monetized. So what am I paying money for?
  10. [R9] Videoshop 3/5 · US Itune music: The app is simple and easy to use. I love that about it. But one thing that upsets me is that you can’t even add Apple Music from iTunes to your videos. It’s frustrating because I added the pro version of this app and I am unable to edit music that I WANT into it.
  11. [R19] Videoshop 1/5 · US can’t import voice memo to the app: this is really inconvenient when you can’t import your voice recordings to the app
  12. [R4] Videoshop 2/5 · US My 2 star review: OK, this app is so fun at all, but I can only make two videos and then it says no more storage you need to delete videos to make more like all of my friends has so much storage and then they could just make all the videos they want and me like I can only make two videos and that’s it like what so weird don’t like this app🤬
  13. [R15] Videoshop 3/5 · US Good but Why no space: I only have four vids and u say I have no space so I can’t make vids and they lag a lot it is fun but please fix this
  14. [R17] Videoshop 4/5 · US It is okay: I like this app but it said I didn’t have a enough space when I only filmed 11. I had this app before and it let me film more videos. I don’t know why but other wise I like this app.
  15. [R7] Videoshop 1/5 · US SCAM DONT DOWNLOAD: As soon as you download the app and start working on a video, it tells you you have to pay.!!! Don’t bother
  16. [R18] Videoshop 3/5 · GB Could be better: This app is very average and many things a behind a paywall. Apps like CapCut are better because of the amount of amazing free features, whereas VideoShop doesn’t have many free features.
  17. [R44] Videoshop 1/5 · US No free features!: Barely any free features! Not able to edit videos good!
  18. [R12] Videoshop 3/5 · US How much of my data!: Is your company taking my data and releasing it to other content creators? I’ve been seeing a lot of my ideas, some are obvious, that mysteriously end up on social media while I wasn’t ready to release my content yet! If you’re collecting my data and selling it to content teams and groups of people that work for google and YouTube and stuff, I will have to stop using your vid
  19. [R54] InShot 1/5 · US The Dropbox ad keeps crashing the app.: Hello, I am reporting a recurring issue with the app. Whenever a Dropbox ad appears, it causes the app to crash or freeze. After this happens, I am completely unable to reopen or use the app, which makes it impossible to continue my work. Please investigate this bug as soon as possible. Thank you.
  20. [R55] InShot 5/5 · US Editing: easy editing on my videos - simple to use -love it
  21. [R56] InShot 2/5 · US I loved this app but: the integration of "AI" into every single thing is making our lives miserable but absolutely making apps like these slower and glitchy. I wish I could have my money back. Updating my review in response: PLEASE GIVE THE OPTION TO REMOVE ALL GENERATIVE "AI" FEATURES. smh
  22. [R57] InShot 5/5 · US Best editor app: Wether a photo is too dark, bright, or weird looking, this app can fix it
  23. [R65] CapCut 1/5 · US this app suck: i have been editing for years but pro has gone TOOT FART this app puts everything behind STUPID PRO, including EXTRACTING AUDIO THE MOST BASIC FEATURE EVER this company is so greedy, end ts 😩🥺🥺😡😡🥰🥰😳😳😘😘😏🎰🤞🙏💔😢🥺😔😞😵‍💫😭
  24. [R66] CapCut 5/5 · US I’m so sorry: But it’s a bug or something, though when I press the system font it changes to the not same font into a different font so fix it please fix that bug
  25. [R67] CapCut 3/5 · US Pay walls: This is not my kind of cake. Pay walls just to do simple things? In my opinion, it’s a little greedy, but it’s probably my fault that I don’t have enough money for this, it’s not a bad product if you got the money.
  26. [R79] Splice 1/5 · US Garbage: Used to be free, updated to paid version and deleted all my videos, new music sucks too.
  27. [R82] Splice 2/5 · US Have to pay to use: All these apps charge for basic features. It’s not great but could be worst. It’s alright.
  28. [R83] Splice 5/5 · US Love it!: A fun way to put videos together! Ive used it for professional and personal projects and it does not disappoint :)
  29. [R84] Splice 3/5 · US ExPeNsIvE: $10. For a WEEK. Bro. And a whole lot of features are behind that Paywall. For example; you can only have TWO videos in progress at a time. Which I guess isn't too bad if you think about it, but it's auful for me, as a bit of a scatterbrain. Lemme suggest something; make it like 1/4 of the price, which is still like &2.50ish, so you get your money's worth. Or, maybe do $10 a MONTH.
  30. [R94] Facetune 5/5 · US Cancelled my Subscription + Still Charged: I did a 7 day free trial, then I cancelled it. Then a few days later I got a $30 charge to my bank account and I was suddenly subscribed to a year-long subscription. I never signed up for it. Be careful.
  31. [R95] Facetune 3/5 · US PIC LOSING QUALITY AND BLURRING FACE WITH VANISH TOOL: PICTURES ARE LOSING QUALITY WITH EVERY USE FROM THE VANISH TOOL. FACE IS COMPLETELY BLURRED WHEN FINISHED. PLEASE FIX THIS AND I WILL UPDATE MY RATING. I use this app largely for the vanish tool.
  32. [R96] Facetune 2/5 · US Beware! App does not actually cancel free trial.: As the title says, “Beware! App does not actually cancel free trial.” You have the option to cancel in app but it does nothing. I could only cancel it from my Subcriptions section of the App Store. App itself is meh. Results are cartoonish but I didn’t have the patience to try some of the AI assisted features like Portrait.
  33. [R99] Facetune 1/5 · US App completely changed: App had a complete downgrade, I have the full subscription and the app just looks cheap. They out all filters and it’s just completely not what it used to be. Honestly going to find a different app. Sad such an amazing app completely ruined itself.
  34. [R107] VN: Photo & Video Editor 1/5 · US DO NOT USE THIS: Do NOT use this if you want to export your work. I worked on a video for 5 hours only to find it impossible to export it anywhere. Many users on Reddit have experience the same thing. For your own sanity DO NOT RISK IT. I’ve tried everything and have now given up.
  35. [R108] VN: Photo & Video Editor 4/5 · US Amazing!: It’s a really good app , but you guys need to make it where u can make unlimited edits without subscription.people should make more editing apps like this
  36. [R109] VN: Photo & Video Editor 3/5 · US Nice but…: This app is better than iMovie but I can only use a few templates for some reason,and idk how to add music,can I get a reply for help
  37. [R110] VN: Photo & Video Editor 1/5 · US Needed change!: Allow us to rename sound effects after extracting them and saving them, also allow us to edit a sound effect we already saved later. Allow us to go back and change the name of it and edit it after already saving it
  38. [R24] Videoshop 3/5 · GB VideoShop: I think this is a good app but I really wish it had better music and songs on it, I think that would be it just that bit better! And probably some more transitions. Other than that good.
  39. [R14] Videoshop 5/5 · US Best ever: Using it for years. Amazing. Easy to use, well supported, no junk or ads.
