- [R1] Videoshop Mid: Horrible “Song” choices.
- [R6] Videoshop Text feature: Would be nice if we could get the feature backwhere it lets you know when texts are straight after resizing and that different sections of text lined up with each other.
- [R9] Videoshop 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.
- [R11] Videoshop Great app: I really like the app, but I just wish that there was a button that you could just press and then it automatically gives you captions throughout the entire video
- [R8] Videoshop So far !: So good, wow. Easy so thank you !!

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

- [R7] Videoshop 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
- [R18] Videoshop Overpriced: Premium is overpriced
- [R24] Videoshop 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.
- [R28] Videoshop 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?
- [R36] Videoshop 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.
- [R40] Videoshop Full version to subscription model: I bought this as fully paid app and I was using it may be once a month but now they have switched to subscription based model and do not honor my fully paid model. I hope developer can still help to restore my purchase and validate it. I emailed them 1 month ago and still no response.
- [R73] InShot Terrible customer service: I swich from android to iphone with a different email account and they wont let me use my yearly subscription, so i lost my money and now i have to pay for a new subscription and more expensive.
- [R46] Videoshop No free features!: Barely any free features! Not able to edit videos good!
- [R80] InShot Water mark: Everything is good other than the water mark.
- [R109] InShot love this: Great app, but I wish you didn’t have to watch an add to remove the watermark
- [R30] Videoshop 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.
- [R42] Videoshop Some problems.: This app is pretty good for small edits. But you can’t extract and add audio and that’s kind of annoying. If I wanted to, I have to export my video and go on another app to add extracted audio and export it again. Would not recommend for big or cool edits. And the filters are very limited. Also, you can’t add good music, music is also very limited.
- [R22] Videoshop 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
- [R66] InShot I’m having trouble with the app: Love the app for short videos for some reason I can’t seem to download a 15 minute long video it just doesn’t download I’m so frustrated
