Great for Small Biz!! I have been using for about a year now and have no issues. Its easy to save on your phone, connect to your social media accounts and set up automated posts. The only compliant that I have is that there isn't much editing control when creating the videos. I would like to be able to set how long each page is shown (5 seconds, etc). I would like to be able to edit the photos better too; like cropping or shrinking to fit in the video instead of using other apps to do so.

I thought this was going to be a really great editing app, I just started my free trial and was planning on going through with it until I tried 3 different video, with different number of photos, it cut everyone to 10 seconds and has no way for me to edit the length? I'm trying to make a 60 second promo video for my music. Ripl - scratch the algorithm, let your customers have complete control of their video by length control and better transition features.

Well i haven't given this app a new review in a long time, and i think it's time lol. I've been using this app for several years now and I'm very impressed. This app is just great! I've made a lot of beautiful videos that still get the wow factor from others. If any issues or bugs arise, the Ripl team are always on top of it and very helpful in answering questions. I've tried quite a few video editing/making apps and sites, but this one, is the best by far.

I found this app advertised and thought it would be perfect for me! So, I installed it. Linked my Facebook profile, group, business page, and Instagram. Once I got them all linked, it prompted me to pay for the service and start a 7 day free trial. There was nothing that I could press to exit from the payment option. Needless to say, I couldn't use it beyond this point. I have now removed it from my group and uninstalled it from my phone. Super disappointed.

I love the app! Update I would give it five stars but it's a hit or miss when I open the app. I will select a video then it trys to load, so I just see the purple circle spinning. I pay for this app and love it when it works. Great selections for ads up to date with all current events, like holidays and society issues. Please tell me why I can not load each time I open the app. I would use it 3 times a week if not more. I cant get it to load please fix! ASAP I will change to 5 stars thanks!!

Too Expensive. The free version is too limiting. It's also unuseable with the giant watermark, while the subscription is too expensive at $15/month. I'd rather buy the designs that I want and have them vs passing a subscription for lots of designs/templates that I'll never use. I don't expect free, but I can't deal with expensive subscriptions. Uninstalled.

Love this app. I make and edit graphics for many things. No problems for 7 months then all of a sudden it freezes up. I've had to uninstall and reinstall twice this week. But they are advertising a discount. I'm not sure if this is their way of trying to get you to upgrade. If it is, it's not working. If anything it's making me want to find another app.

The new Android version is more frustrating. There used to be daily inspiration ideas for posts ... They are gone. Also access to "other designs" while creating was just a click away and now I cant access them. I see the SAME suggested templates over and over in their new "inspire" area. I've been paying for PRO for a couple years now, and these "improvements" have not helped an app that works for 10 minutes then freezes, locks up, etc. Same issues. The web portal is no better. FIX IT.

The free version of the app is a nice sampler of what could be, and the full version is awesome HOWEVER, the $15 monthly subscription is WAY WAY too expensive for an app like this. I'd gladly pay a one-time fee, or even a lower rate yearly subscription, but the recurring monthly charge made this an easy cut from my marketing budget for my business. There are other competitive, more affordable options out there.

I signed up to try this for 7 days. I messed around with it for 1 or 2 days, then tried to cancel and was unable to do so. Somehow these people bypassed the card that was on file and debited the full amount from my business account from a totally different BANK, unauthorized by me. I'm still trying to cancel the subscription, I go to manage my subscriptions and there is nothing there. Its Ridiculous and a ripoff. disputing this charge.

While making short marketing videos is easy with this app, I think the paid version is expensive. If you do get it, make sure to unsubscribe from emails and turn off notifications because both become annoying pretty quick. It's not a bad app, but between the limited nature of the free version, and the cost of the paid version, it feels overpriced for what it does.

Nice little advertising app with history and diagnostics of how your ad is doing. Not worth $9.99 per month. Who are you actually after? No small business is looking for an additional payment. Allow us to download designs for a small fee. Your making money hand over fist trust me. Plus during the 9.99 fee, you can't keep the ad designs so if you decide to remove it, there goes or choices. Just a thought.

I love the music catalog. App generally runs smoothly. Putting announcements or videos together is quick. I usually find a template to fit any mood and the customized options are easy to use. I think Ripl could integrate very well with complimentary services. Ripl is my "go-to" app that pulls me back in loyalty every time I need to organize a marketing concept into quick videos. Good job, devs!

App is seriously broken since last update. I love using this app for my business, but since the last update it is not working properly. I can do one post, but after that when I try to schedule my posts for the week, the templates are not showing up on screen and it is generally useless for making posts. This needs to be fixed asap or I will cancel my yearly subscription. Samsung Galaxy s9.

After nearly 1 year of use, is Pro worth the $120 at $10/mth? No. This is the same price as a subscription to AmazonPrime. I get a lot out of Prime for that price, but after a whole year of Ripl Ive gotten a sluggish app with loading issues. Templates are rarely updated, mostly recycled. I cant share my subscription with others on my media team. I would expect this from a $2/mth app. Maybe more worthwhile for a business, but ultimately unaffordable for a small nonprofit. Looking for alternatives.

App will not allow you to select more than one photo at a time for your slideshow or video creation. Waaaay too convoluted to have to go back & forth and jump through five screens, each and every time. Instagram allows multiple selections at once so I'm spoiled. I gave it 3 stars because I didn't get past this barrier before uninstalling so I really can't comment on whatever else the app offers.

I used this app free for 7 days but didn't purchase because it was too expensive and I was not ready to launch my business. After a year, I bought it in preparation for my business launch so I could finish some of the stuff I'd previously created but I couldn't edit them because a lot of those options were gone and there were less options in general. Also, was tedious looking through theit templates for replacements. I wish they had a better way to sort. I likely won't renew. Too time consuming.

Worked great and posted fine first time. Ever since my posts have not gone through and they are not saved so I keep having to recreate them. Very frustrating. UPDATE 12/23: I finally upgraded AFTER the fee went up to $14.99 and I still have issues. Not worth the $14.99 when you can't post - keep getting error msgs, save it as a draft and now it's not there. If it were still $9.99 I could reconcile with that for the lower price.

Been using this app for over a year and it's such a great concept, unfortunately 75% of the time I have to reset my phone, reload the app, or just give up cause it freezes, gets glitchy, won't load designs or just flat out crashes. Very disappointing. I've used it on my Galaxy 8, & Note 9...same problem. Nothing more disappointing than wasted potential.

Great app for creating promotional videos. The new ability to use a video is great but I was dissapointed when I discovered that I can't use a video and pictures together. That functionality would definitely be very beneficial. One other thing that would make this app great would be the ability to set the amount of time between each slide.
