Hot garbage. Had to use this for a school project. It deleted the webcam footage, messed up the aspect ratio, only recorded in 480p, took 5 minutes to download, wouldn't export properly, kept giving me an error when trying to send to google drive, chopped half the image off the sides when I finally found a way to send, wouldn't let me copy the link, files that I could download were in some weird format that I've never seen before, slow and clunky editor, automatically snaps crops to random intervals so it's impossible to cut out a precise amount of video under 5 seconds, login process was horrendous, kept logging me out when I tried to record. Don't use this if you want to keep your sanity.

This is awesome! Allows students to take their creativity to the next level in my video production class! Great job WeVideo!

Amazing, the only down is you can only record for 5 minutes unless you upgrade, which probably costs money. And it does let you record. (on mac)
