  1. 5/5Unbelievable

    Over the past 9 years, I’ve used almost 20 diffent video making apps looking for one with the most features, ease of use and affordability. Most of them are great for any 2 of these features, but never have all 3. I’m not sure how long this app has been out, but I recently found it- and it has all 3 features. Being a ‘free’ app basically makes it a unicorn among apps these days, but add the features including an amazing selection of audio special effects, video and audio transition selections, overlaying, cutout, and reversing- just to name a few- creates a collection of tools you’re not going to find anywhere else - not even on apps where you pay high yearly subscription charges. Other VM apps will claim to be the total package- but they all fall short in comparison . Save yourself some time-,this is by far top of the line and the best VM app currently available.

  2. 1/5Wish it worked

    I was so excited to learn about this app because I use Instagram to post a lot of my edited videos and have been searching for a new editing app to use as my usual one is so old now. But after trying to use it for the past three days I’m so sad that it’s not working. I don’t know if my iPad is just not “new” enough for the app to 100% work on but it’s so glitchy and too frustrating to use. First the app doesn’t load anything at all on wifi, it only works somewhat without being connected which is weird. Once I’m able to work on something and add overlays, if I try to play the video to see my progress, sometimes all my overlays just disappear or they don’t go away at all when I need them too. And if I want to leave my project, pressing the ‘X’ at the top left corner does absolutely nothing, which means I have to completely close the app everytime I need to leave my project, and I have no idea if my progress is being saved when I do that, so far it has been. Then the options just sometimes aren’t there! I swear I had to close out the app two or three times before I could finally find the ‘effects’ option. I wish I could use the app since it’s connected right to my saved audios on my insta and it seems like it would be easy to figure out but all the glitches make it too time consuming and annoying and I’m pretty sure it would take me forever to get any projects done. I’ve tried deleting the app three times now and checking for software updates, restarting my iPad two or three times and I don’t think it’s a me problem at this point. Really upset I can’t use this app and wish there was something I could do.

  3. 1/5Forget it 0 Stars!

    For some reason it drains my battery like crazy. It’s like I’m playing Roblox. Second it bugs out all the time! It’ll be working fine then everything freezes. As I’m editing right now, the app keeps freezing up when I try to add text to my vids. It seems to work seamlessly for a couple mins before it just stops. It’s an otherwise great app but it’s extremely unstable. I just saw it was recently updated 4 days ago, but im using it today and it’s actually worse than other times. As long as it can run smoothly it’s great but it’s been a while now. The reason I keep using it is because it does give more engagement because you use the app. I’ll be happy to write another review once things get sorted out. Edit: Now I rate 1 star because ever since I added that text to my video, for some reason the app don’t work and doesn’t allow me to export my videos. EDIT: So I removed the text from the video and now all of a sudden the app works like normal😭 like yo it doesn’t even say anything bad it’s literally “Freestyle Design” I just wanna share my video and for some reason, even when I move the text to a different part of the video it’ll actually export a small percentage till, what I assume is, the part where it has to start “exporting” the section of where the text is, and just stop there and say something went wrong. WHAT WENT WRONG IS WHAT I WANNA KNOW!!! is it a trigger words? Is it not able to process text anymore? I don’t understand. I could make the video without text but that wouldn’t be my idea, which may or may not give me the views I need for my content, either way it’s annoying.

  4. 2/5A Half-Baked Attempt: Instagram’s ‘Edit’ App Falls Flat

    Two stars for effort. As someone with 25 years in web and UI design and extensive experience with various editing apps, I was excited to try Instagram’s new ‘Edit’ app. It turned out to be a massive disappointment. The only slightly redeeming feature is easy access to Instagram music, but everything else falls flat. The app prioritizes pointless features like tracking ideas and inspiration—something nobody needs from a video editor—while completely neglecting essential tools like reversing clips or applying common filters, transitions, and effects. It claims to offer high-quality footage and 4K exports without watermarks, but that’s a bare minimum expectation. The core functionality is severely lacking; it feels like a rushed, underdeveloped product that’s nowhere near ready for prime time. If Instagram wants to compete with heavyweights like CapCut, they need to bring something innovative to the table. Right now, it’s just a half-baked imitation that fails to deliver anything new or worthwhile. If you’re serious about video editing, stick to what you know works. Instagram should focus on improving their main app and put developers’ time into fixing existing bugs instead of wasting resources on a half-hearted attempt to compete

  5. 1/5Good effects, Godawful performance

    It’s unfortunate how poor this app functions because it has great text, cuts silences for you, and awesome effects. However, it constantly glitches and when you’re trying to save a project, it’ll shift ALL the added sound effect and text back by a few milliseconds. Which is so annoying when you’re working on a project and have to go back to fix everything. It freezes up often when adding multiple clips, sometimes when you’re hitting “undo” it’ll only undo the text you’re adding even when you want to undo a clip you just deleted. Sometimes you select all the clips you want for a new project, it NEVER loads and you’ll have to exit and redo that. When exiting while it’s glitching, it doesn’t save your edits and you have to do it all over again. Also when editing a clip, if you click play it’ll restart all the way at the beginning of the video over and over again instead of where you want it to play… it’s unavoidable when it starts doing this. I love how easy this app is to use and the text options, but it has too many bugs. Also lots of the sound effects are corny and would never be used in a reel.
