Latest reviews, United States App Store.

★★★★★Oct 20, 2026
Difficult to use

Never really worked

★★★★★Oct 20, 2026
Your app sucks

The worst app out there I’ve used so far. It continuously crashes. Absolutely the worst app ever

★★★★★Oct 19, 2026
Stop billing me

Canceled still billing me

★★★★★Oct 19, 2026
Scammed me charged immediately after says free trial

Wanted to try it. Said 3 days free with no charge. Clicked. Next thing I know over $100 charge for app notification comes up. No way to contact anyone. Didn’t want it for that much. Didn’t know if I wanted it at all. Hence was doing free trial. Cheated me.

★★★★★Oct 18, 2026
Not worth it.

You pay over $100 per year for the app and you can only make one 5 second video a week? Only 800 credits. Are you kidding me? That means you pay $100 to get less than 5 minutes of video a year. This app is just useless.

★★★★★Oct 17, 2026
Glitches and misleading

This app constantly crashes and glitches, I upload the videos into the template and it will not creat a video. I’ll close the app and it asks me to subscribe after my subscriptions clearly show I’m already subscribed and it will not allow me to creat anything. It’s very frustrating. And it says 3 days free but you subscribe for the monthly and in the app later it tells you it’s 3 days free if you sign up for a year so you end up spending 14 not knowing until after your subscribed that you needed to purchase the full year for three days for free. Bait and switch and full of glitch.
