User Reviews

Users praise the realistic vintage 8mm look and easy workflow, plus some free filters and ongoing updates. However, they repeatedly report crashes during import, editing, and saving, with videos failing to save to the camera roll or export at any resolution. Filter availability is mixed—free options exist but many features are paid. Audio can also cut out or be missing at times, and crashes can force re-edits. Overall, the concept and aesthetic are strong, but stability and reliable export are the main fixes needed.

Free filters and effects are available, with paid upgrades for more options

Cons

Frequent crashes and instability across importing, editing, and playback

Limited/free filters; many options require payment or are not available for free
Audio dropouts or missing sound after recording
Occasional crashes that force re-edits or kick users out
