Slideshow Creator for Negative User Reviews

I love this but... why can’t I save the videos to my camera roll??The app is working well, I like the effects and the usability.... but... why can’t I save them to my camera roll?? And why doesn’t it give fb pages mAnager as an option to share to? I need to be able to post business videos, not links to a video :( If I could do this I would give it 5 stars. Unfortunately this is not going to be useable for me until this is fixed :(.Version: 9.11.0

No thanksMost apps you don’t have to sign up to giving private e.mail & name information before even knowing if what your getting is good or not cos so many rubbish ones: But thought I would test it out before doing that - But even was not able to test anything it gives no options no download to see it the short item works if not without having to sign up - So that’s dissapointing bye bye:.Version: 9.15.4

Not working properly, keep charging me!I have been trying to make this work for two months now. I paid the extra, in order to get more pictures onto the slideshow. I received a couple of replies from tech-support, always the same replies, and now I haven’t heard from them in a couple of weeks. It keeps sticking on upload, and then exclamation marks on some of the pictures it couldn’t download. I am an endless loop, and yes I did make sure that the music was longer than the slideshow. I even changed the format back to JPEG, and it’s still not working. I paid for that app too. Very disappointing. If it’s not going to work, stop charging me!.Version: 9.10.0

Very disappointedI don’t get it! Why are there so many good reviews and how much do you have to pay to get a good version? The standard app is unacceptable. You can only use 20 photos and they are blurry and distorted and cut off peoples heads and such. I would gladly pay more to get a decent app but there are too many options and no way to tell what features are included. I don’t want a subscription but I would pay a substantial one time fee if I knew what I was getting. Very disappointed in this app..Version: 9.10.0

Finished video wasn’t goodFinished video had “Animoto trial” written all over it. Also some of the faces and heads weren’t in frame in the finished video. Definitely wouldn’t recommend this app. The search for a decent one continues.....Version: 9.8.0

Already SPAMMING me.Works okay but very quickly tries to get its hooks into your personal details, signs you up for promotional SPAM and you can't save your movies without paying! 11 second movies, a lot of which is an ad for their service. Fully understand they need to make a buck but $30 plus for a year subscription to save videos? Received SPAM and was signed up to smiling lists when I used the 'login with Facebook' option moments after starting to use the app..Version: 5.0.0

Great appHappy to pay for this app - just wish I could access my Facebook photos from the app instead of having to download them to my phone first - please make this possible 😀.Version: 6.0.2

Used to be a great little appCan’t really give a honest review because I can’t use it. Every time I try and open it it crashes and that is as far as I can get! Using iPad Pro with latest updates..Version: 9.15.4

Crashes once you create videoUnusable on my iPad Pro. Hope a bug fix comes for future users to try..Version: 9.15.4

Cool themes, little control, no option for music free slideshowThis program has some great themes and templates and can make a great video in a very short amount of time. However, within the themes there are no controls for duration for the video, the speed of the slides, and no option to make a slideshow without selecting a track from their library ( you have the option to integrate the Apple Music library but you can’t use any DRM tracks…) has great potential with more controls. Would gladly pay a little more per month if there were more options and robust controls..Version: 9.15.4

Slide showTook forever to load and it didn’t like most of the photos I tried to use.Version: 9.10.0

BackgroundsThis website needs more styles and have am option to pick you own songs from the iphone. And it take long to upload photos for the video. Also have the options for more photos in videos..Version: 9.9.0

Really badThis app is really bad every time I put a caption on the photo it makes me get rid of one.Version: 9.11.0

Painful and costlyThe app kept throwing up errors for individual images. You’d have to delete that image out and then upload again. You can only upload 20 images in the trial, then have to pay $7.99 to upload further. Trying to export the video is extremely painful. You need to log onto a PC to export the file. You can only share the video from the app, and it’s only in a low res format. To gain a high res download, you need to pay another $10. It took forever to create a simple slideshow. I wouldn’t use again.Version: 9.15.4

App of Slideshow CreatorI enjoyed using the app. It is user-friendly and allows me to create videos using pictures and text. One area I feel the app could improve is I wish it had the option to add more than one slide to a video to enhance storytelling..Version: 9.15.4

Keeps crashingApp keeps crashing. Highly frustrating..Version: 9.15.0

It’s okayThe reason why is because the first thing when I downloaded the app it crashed and took me out 2 times and when I was finally not took out I was making the slideshow. So I was making the slide show thing but while I was doing it there was really no instructions so I didn’t know how to do it and do all the editing and stuff and I would’ve given it a four if it wasn’t for the editing bit.Version: 9.15.4

Basic plan purchase has no differenceI started really liking it. So I bought the basic plan. However, there is no difference between the free version and the basic plan. I was hoping the Animoto logo would disappear from my video, and more Instagram styles selection (you can only use 7 at a time). Plus if you’re using it for Instagram videos - like I was going to - there are only 2 settings/styles. If they don’t suit you’re aesthetics it’s a bit of a disappointing pain. I honestly only wanted a simple Instagram video size with no filters. But there is no flexibility in choosing your own size, without a filter and trap music..Version: 9.8.0

😢What happened to Animoto, like the iconic name is gone..Version: 9.11.0

Videos can only be 10 seconds long...I bought the subscription to make a video slideshow, but once I bought it the videos couldn’t be longer then 10 seconds... That’s pretty short especially if you’re making a video with personalized messages in them. Pretty disappointed..Version: 9.7.0

RubbishNever worked. Kept crashing. Deleted..Version: 9.15.2

Have to pay for HD versionTakes a while to load. Free version allows only 20 pics and it is not HD. Basically useless if I don't pay..Version: 9.1.0

Problems loading videosI have used this app for years and have love it. Since recently renewing and paying for an upgrade, I have had problems with videos taking days to load despite being connected to high speed internet..Version: 9.14.0

Some problems...I was working with this app, and it just flattened the slideshow I made, but it got better afterwards. It's a very good app for making a slideshow!!.Version: 9.15.3

SucksCrashes when opened.Version: 9.15.4

More Space!When I try to write something on my slideshow there is never enough space for me to write the whole thing. Can you please make more space on the slides?.Version: 9.12.0

Clips videosI don’t like how it clips videos you add to only 10 secs. Useless for what I got this for..Version: 9.7.0

Animoto appThis app is great , you can make movies out of the pictures and videos from that very special event, for me this way my cadet ball. The thing I would like to see improve in this app is that you can add more pictures up to 30 and have videos that won't be cut and you can watch the whole video , thank you.Version: 4.1.2

Phone App doesn’t workI pay annually for Animoto to use for business on my desktop. Disappointed I can’t use it for personal use from my phone. I keep getting errors that photos won’t load and to try again. By time I’m done deleting everything it won’t load, photo and small clips of video (2-5 seconds) I don’t have a video left..Version: 9.15.4

CrashesUnusable just crashes all the time.Version: 9.15.0

Not goodMakes you pay to add more than 20 photos then when you add all your photos in order it mixes them all up in the slideshow 🤦🏼‍♀️ what a waste of time.Version: 9.9.0

Get what you pay forI dont like how it plasters Animoto Trial all over an otherwise good promo video.Version: 9.8.0

Needs more work.We are in a world where HD is speed is VERY important.. And it would be nice to have that option. Needs more options with colour in pictures like grey or focus & blur. Slide show should automatically time the length of the music to the number of items you've got on. It's a great app don't get me wrong but... Needs a little more work to make it the BEST slideshow app.Version: 4.0.5

DisappointedI made a slideshow from camera roll photos, but the pace was too fast. I followed instructions and went to desktop version, but changing the pace shortened the slideshow and excluded 50% of the photos. I signed for the free trial to try and eliminate the problem, but then an obtrusive watermark appeared on the slideshow. And Purchasing the $5.00 monthly subscription did not solve the problem. I also could not use music from my library, only selected tunes from the developer. For friends and family slideshows, this app was disappointing..Version: 9.7.0

THEY SELL YOUR INFORMATIONDo not download this app unless you want your information compromised and sold on the dark web! I am a member of Experian’s IDnotify and I continuously get notified that my email address is compromised and it always goes back to this app. I have tried emailing the company and they denied it and took no responsibility what so ever. I even paid for the premium version of this app. The email I used I NEVER use for anything else and since using this app, I have noticed a large amount of junk mail and other issues with my email..Version: 9.11.0

Animoto Breach- DO not download!!I had no problem with my Animoto app for years ...until the words Animoto showed up at my banking institution as the app that had a data breach and my email, passwords and personal information was compromised. I thought I would reach out to the company first for there comments and they were less than helpful or accommodating. They said they had informed everyone who information was stolen. Guess that was everyone but me. DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS APP IF YOU VALUE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION.Version: 9.10.0

Editing capabilitiesI cannot change the order of photos when exiting. That’s very bad. I added $5 hoping to be able to switch around photos but the app only let me increase the number of photo to post. Also, once I saved that’s it. No more editing either. For some one like me who changes mind a lot this app is not good enough..Version: 9.5.0

WhyWhy does it have to cut your vids I like them the way they are!!!.Version: 9.7.0

Hi hum for free, upgrade is not worth anythingThe free app is average at best, with the time limit, logo at the end, and small character limits on the text slides. To be a subscription app is just plain silliness. There aren't many perks, and the majority of the updates are just squashing bugs. The subscription price is hefty for all the bugs they need to squash, and there are so many free apps out there that perform so much better..Version: 9.9.0

No.I don’t really like this app. You pick music and a style, but that’s all they let you do. I would like it if you could personalize it more or there were more options..Version: 9.15.4

Great App, terrible pricingHD needs to be 1080, what is 720 these days, that’s not HD anymore. Also for the upper tier Animoto needs to remove their branding at the end of the video, we aren’t paying to keep that hopefully ..Version: 9.3.0

Really bad experienceWith the mobile app there is no way to look up your account information. You have to go to their website. I don’t remember the email address I used though so can’t log in on the website. I’ve contacted their support team numerous times with no response. The free version is fine, but stay away from the paid. With customer service like theirs it’s not worth the money..Version: 9.7.0

Almost complete uselessI’m not a geek but I hold my own and I’ve successfully used a lot of photo editing and album-creating apps. Animoto is so bizarrely useless I’m wondering if the premium version I have is somehow corrupted. Among the many problems, I cannot use my IOS iTunes music. I can’t slow the video speed down. I can’t get photos to properly display in the provided templates, and on and on. Nothing about the app looks anything like the features as shown in the App Store. Weirdest app experience of my life. I’m totally astounded by the positive reviews. I’d like a refund on the time I’ve wasted on it..Version: 9.11.0

Something’s not quite right with the mobile appI’ve used and loved Animoto for several years on the upgraded “ plus” plan but lately I’ve had repeated issues uploading short video clips to make my video. I don’t know if they’ve taken features away from that plan ( because now they are telling me I can “do more” for more money, or if they are just having glitches, but it’s taken me all afternoon and still I can’t finish this video.Version: 9.10.0

Great concept but very frustratingI love the idea of making slideshows both for personal use, ie. special occasions and for Business use, displaying my art line. I took the time to make eight different slide shows each with 20 photos which is the maximum. I emailed some of them to potential clients and posted my personal ones to Facebook. Within 24 hours, all the videos were automatically deleted. I reached out to Animoto customer service and was told “it looks like you are using our legacy mobile app“. My question is, “why is this even available on the App Store NOW if it is old and useless?” I downloaded this version from the App Store on November 8, 2019 and my videos were deleted the next day on November 9. I spent quite a few hours making these slideshows just to have them disappear the next day. Frustrating! Before they were all deleted however, I really enjoyed the app. So much potential!.Version: 9.11.0

Very oldHhhff.Version: 8.4.0

Why???Great app and idea but why do we have to wait for it load after a video has been compiled. It really show be easier and quicker to just watch straight up after a video has been made..Version: 4.0.1

Not happyOnly just downloaded it and it’s crashing already before I can even start anything.Version: 9.15.4

Love Animoto but app wasn’t super user friendlyI used the online version everyday. Tried to use the app today and felt it could have been easier to go back and change the style or add photos without hitting the back button over and over. Other than that it’s great..Version: 9.8.0

PoorNo stars! So basic, destroys the res of your photos, can’t edit the length of each displayed photo. Real basic stuff and cost £3.99 a month :s.Version: 9.12.0

Don’t pay for an upgrade!I could only load so many photos in a show. If you want more, you have to pay (that’s fine). $4.99. Okay. But then it maxes out again and tells me the next level is $9.99. Okay, fine. $9.99 instead of $4.99. It maxed out at 300 photos and makes it super complicated to unselect the ones I don’t want. Get charges from the bank. It’s both charges. Contact customer service they say only Apple can refund me. Apple doesn’t refund purchases! Developer should present clearly what you get for each price and lay out options at the same time. So disappointing!.Version: 9.7.0

Data breachGot an email saying the company had a data breach, change your password etc. Deleted app..Version: 9.9.0

Its okI think the effects of this app are definitely great but it would be nice if you could add more photos and maybe pick your own song! Also the prices for being able to save the video are expensive! It should be 1 app purchase to a pro version instead of paying per month/year! Really really expensive.Version: 5.0.0
