Video Editor

The mobile version is garbage, only tried using the free version for about 10 minutes and couldn't accomplish anything. You can't edit and the latency and frame rate between your trimming and the video screen is horrid. Overall just a bad experience. The whole point of a video editor is to be able to trim and split videos which this can't do to anywhere near a useful degree. Desktop version is quite good though.

I installed WeVideo (or is it just "Video Editor"?) and all I want to do is upload a still image video. Single image and pre-recorded audio (3 min long). This is a no brainer of a task but when I tried to start a new video project on WeVideo I encountered an unusual problem. WeVideo has no way to find the audio. What it does it compile in one very long very unhelpful list EVERY AUDIO FILE ON MY PHONE. That's insane. I listen to a lot of music and i'm not a dummy paying monthly for the privilege. The list is impossibly long too long to even tell if WeVideo supports the audio format (.wav) there's no way to search by file name or track title or anything. It's just a long list you have to scroll through. That makes it unusable. not just unusable but so unusable I took the time out to write this review. Please for the love of all that's holy when you're picking background music from local devices give the option to search, or show the files in folders, or even define the audio file folder. Heck I'm seeing my podcasts in here, my Google app ringtones. I actually keep some royalty free songs on my phone heaven forbid I actually want to use them in a video.

This app is now really poor, which is disappointing, as it used to have so much more functionality and integrate so much better with the web version. It adds in transitions and effects automatically that I don't want and now it's useless as a video editor. I can't start the outline of a video on my phone and transfer to the web version to finish off. It even keeps crashing when I try to upload videos I've made. Please go back to the old version that actually worked.

Used to love it. But ive gotten tired of creating videos with soundtracks only to replay them and most of the video having most of the song on there but suddenly cutting off the music and playing the rest of the video with no sountrack. I would have given 5. But nobody wants to work hard on a great video of their raceshorses and add a sountrack and play the edit before saving only to go back once downloaded to find out the end of the videos soundtrack keeps cutting out. Im fed up of it. 6th x

Absolutley horrible. I don't expect much from a free service, and this one disappointed my expectations beyond belief. Couldn't find the videos I had uploaded online in the desktop version. Then I had to exclusively use the desktop version. After editing for hours on end, it said I had ran out of upload minutes (whatever that means). Now I can't view my video anywhere. Wasted so much time on this site.

Honestly I think it's a pretty good app, it's easy to use which is important because I have to use it for so school. Only 3 stars though, because in my class some of peers were having trouble with it. One of them couldn't export, another couldn't access their video even though they weren't finished editing, ect.

I have been using it for more than a year, every day. needs (TIME LINE) marker in clipfor editing. Honestly looking for new app that will give us time line with simple editing. Need more features for editing portion, like Bold font, slow motion features, etc. furthermore; I lost my subscription with 60 days left. left feedback, with no response. so we are shopping again. Sorry, but that's the truth.

This is ridiculous. And I NEVER leave bad reviews because I know the impact. App looks intuitive to use - but never functioned properly. Wouldn't sync with my computer. Wouldn't load any thing. I have TRIED to contact toy guys multiple times. Got through once - was asked for a screen shot so they could find my account. Every email sense then was rejected due to s full mailbox. I am beyond frustrated. I had signed up for the $9.99 a month plan - but just canceled that.

Used it a lot until the new format and now it won't save and is unnecessary complicated. It was a great quick edit on my phone previously - if I wanted in depth editing I would take it home and use Adobe on my desk top. Can't get new videos to save and day 3 with no response from customer support. Might be ditching this app (which I paid for) and try something new.

I truly enjoy the services that Wevideo has to offer, but for the past half a month due to technical complications it has been impossible to utilize my subscription. The tech support, while initially promising did not actually remedy the problem. If it were not for me trying to finish the same project I have been trying to finish for weeks, I wouldn't be using it anymore. For a site I have used for years with no problems, this was disheartening.

I have used this app in the past and really enjoyed the videos that I could make from it. However, recently it seems that it isn't working in any way whatsoever. When I record voiceovers the sound is scratchy and jumps. When I watch the previews the video jumps or sometimes pauses and won't start up again unless I rewind and try to play. When I go to export the app starts to export it pauses and won't start up again. I left it on for an evening and woke up in the morning to it still working.

I prefer the desktop version. I love this video editing software, but there are some features that could be put on the computer version like captions and overlapping photos on to videos. I also feel like $60 a year is about ten or fifteen dollars extra that what would make sense in my head. I like this app, but use your computer for more advanced features.

I uninstalled the app, cleared the cache, and tried ONCE AGAIN, to do a copy of the video on to the WEB. I made the copy at 2:22pm (see attached photo) I waited for over an hour. I left the app open while it copied. When I clicked back. It looked like it had finished. Luckily it didn't say " error copying" like all the other times. But when I checked on the website, there's no copy of the video! This App is a complete waste of time!! the clip won't upload without crashing. No copy on the web!

wevideo is great when it works. Which is about half the time at best. There's no customer support when you encounter issues. Ex I needed to upgrade my account so I could use essentials. The website says I had to do it via Google play app. The app said I had to do it via the web browser. Took over a week to get that sorted. There are buggy issues. Ex, the audio track is silent though not muted. Levels are up. Just doesn't work. I had to re-do the entire video. App fails, can't even watch videos.

Here's something new: when you apply a zoom effect on a photo it displays normally in the specific photo preview but when you look at the full render preview it throws a "swooping" effect on it that is completely unwanted. This issue, as with those mentioned by numerous others, *did not used to happen*--it is new to an app that used to be great. If only we could have the version from a year or two ago, then the dev could get their money and we could still have a great app. Oh well.

I like it! I wish it had more effects, fonts, free music, and colors. This app is great for a beginner video editor, just learning the ropes. I would not recommend it for an advanced video editor. It is a simplistic video editor with limited editing functionality. Perfect for when I was just learning how to video edit, and helped me transition into a more advanced video editor. I do not use it anymore, since I am more advanced in video editing now, as aforementioned. Video in just minutes? True

The app is incredibly hard to sign into. The website and app are both glitchy and unreliable. It is exhausting how many times I have to edit a clip. The entire time using the program I feel frustrated and upset with the extremely difficult editing. While it does have convenient photos and audio, all other features are glitchy and overall I find it harder to use than all other editing softwares I have tried.
