Just wasted an hour of my time *trying to* compress the same file 4 times. First time, after losing all the progress made from switching between apps and leaving it running in the background and coming back to it, which it didn’t inform of that happening if I were to not have it running in the foreground. Second time, after about 20+ minutes of it processing a message popped up saying ‘file couldn't be compressed to a smaller size, try adjusting the parameters before compressing to see if that will work’. So I adjusted, and frankly don't want to waste any more time writing this review, but long story short- third time told me there wasn't enough space on my iphone once it was nearing done, which I followed its prompts to clear some space in settibgs, which when i came back to it again all the progress (of 20+ minutes !!) — again — lost!! Only to persevere and now try for the win, with smaller parameters, only to after over a half an hour come back to it (in the foreground on my phone) 100% complete — and now says ‘file couldn't be compressed to a smaller size...’ Couldn't it figure all of this out BEFORE having me go through the motions and entire processes just to tell me it can’t!?? Great intention with creating the app — but needs more practical user-in-mind design. Best of luck towards improvement.

This video compression APP demand that the user provide complete bank card information. In a large banner across the top of the screen is a message

“WE WILL NOT CHARGE YOUR CARD”

“ … we need this information to determine geographic and location data …”

This Video Compression APP immediately charge my bank card for $1.00 (USD) AND I received a “Fraud Alert” from my bank that this vendor is charging people for iPhone, iOS game applications and numerous complaints are being filed against this APP developer.

Not that this matters anymore, the default compression settings produced a terrible highly distorted compressed video resulted where the viewer is presented highly pixilated video with medium to large random blocks and colors.

I have screen shots and will contact Apple Security.

This looked like a great app, but I tried compressing several videos for an important data collection project, and despite adjusting what they recommended or lower (at one point trying 65% and 25 speed), it always came back saying it couldn’t make my large videos — to large to even Airdrop to my computer — into anything smaller. It was just totally useless for me and I’ve already deleted it.
