VivaCut - Effect Video Editor Reviews

by Tehtyu

I don’t know about anybody else experience I can only speak on what I went through with VivaCut. So I was making an edit and at first it was going well everything was working but once they came time to add the music I added properly. Then it split my music into two and over LabStat making it replay while the second song is about to end. And after that when I tried to delete it it told me I can only exempt the audio but every time I click the new audio it wouldn’t put it there it kept leaving the old one. Therefore VivaCut has a lot of technical difficulties and I just wouldn’t recommend it but if you do you want to get an editing app I would recommend alight motion because it’s a little bit more complicated to work but it is 1000 times better than VivaCut.

Everything was going perfect until I was about to export it tell me when you need premium to export it which is really stupid in my opinion I feel like it’s just not OK I would prefer to have the two qualities to not be premium Which is absolutely stupid what’s the whole point of trying to export it and you can’t save it to your gallery even though you can’t cause you don’t have premium I just think it’s really stupid at least make premium a little bit smaller priced a month or something like that because I know you can or not a bunch of futures with premium I honestly hate being on another topic makes me want to uninstall it and never reinstall it again 😤

VivaCut is amazing. I decided to get the free trial pretty much almost directly after downloading it and playing around with it a little and when I gave the Pro features a go with the videos I was making, I greatly enjoyed the ease of use, aesthetic, etc. Initially, I had considered purchasing VivaCut for the yearly membership.

While I still would like to do that, I don’t think I will until VivaCut stops CRASHING. VivaCut constantly crashes or glitches and it really hinders an editor from getting what they need to get done in a short period of time. Something that should only have taken me a couple hours at most has now kept me up late at night and I’m extremely frustrated that the application constantly keeps crashing and glitching no matter what I try.

Once this issue is fixed I may consider purchasing but for now I will be cancelling my free trial as soon as I actually am able to make the video I originally intended to make. Hopefully next time I try VivaCut it won’t take me several hours out of my day to get it to work around the crashing/glitching issue.

The title says it all. I made memes and some vines on VivaCut! I am very proud of them. I stopped using VivaCut for a bit because I didn't have anything I wanted to make a meme out of. I come back on. Everything looks the same. I tap on an edit to watch it again. It happen to be a dreamwastaken edit. And well. It was just black. Everything black. All the work was gone.

I go to tap on the others to watch them. Same things happen to those too. I spent hours and hours on a few edits. Just for them to be gone. I want to delete VivaCut . But I'll loose the edits even more than I've already lost them. And I can't figure out a way to restore the edits. I don't know if it's a glitch or a bug or even server issues.

I don't know if anyone else has this issue or not. If so I know I'm not alone with it. A lot of work just down the drain. A lot of people's hard work down the drain. It broke my heart when all my work was gone. Because on alot of them I really loved. Some I could risk losing. But I adored most of them.

So if there's a way to restore them I'm all ears for it. But please just please give me my edits back.

I get that you guys are trying to make money so you can continue adding things to VivaCut , but it's absolutely ridiculous how many transitions are "pro", all I can use is the basic transitions that are the exact same as Funimate. The reason I downloaded this in the first place is to create more professional edits without the struggle that VideoStar gives me, I wanted something simple to use and get a hang of while also looking professional and none of us can get that unless we pay for 3/4 of the total amount of transitions. Is it too much to ask for a nice, simple editing app with proper and professional transitions whose developers actually care about something other than profit? Apparently so... On another hand, I like the layout of VivaCut and I think it's pretty easy to use, the only issue for me currently is transitions.

I do really do like VivaCut, is very useful when making edits with transitions that I personally love to do. The first day I got it a start playing around with it seeing what it has and what it can do. At that moment I was using the free trial and I noticed that almost all the transitions are mostly for people that pay. So I decided to get the monthly trial. All the transitions are very cool and I loved them, but after VivaCut started glitching.

When this would happen it would take me out of VivaCut and didn’t even saved my process. Since I got the monthly trial which was almost 2 weeks ago I had this happen 7 times already. Today I was about to finish an edit a have been working on for about 2 hours, it glitched took me out of VivaCut and didn’t save my work. I didn’t do nothing except starting over again. After a few minutes it glitched again and didn’t save my work. At this time I’m getting very frustrated about the glitching, please can this problem be solve once and for all. Thank you!

I usually used VivaCut for small edits for like fan use. But then I was rewatching one I made in my photos and noticed I made a mistake. I reopened VivaCut today and suddenly there was a new time limit right after the update. The video I made was 5:12 and I was able to download it. But after the update it won’t let me download it because the new limit is only five minutes. Before VivaCut really had great potential I didn’t mind needing to pay for things since I wouldn’t need them. But the fact that a time limit was now added is ridiculous. This was the only app I had that I could do my little edits on but with this new limit and as well as crashing issues and glitches I’ll just delete it. I wouldn’t recommend VivaCut anymore. Time limits, paying for most of the good things, the crashes. Not worth it. The only good thing would be the extracting audio but I bet soon you’ll have to have premium for it as well.

First I just want to say this probably the best editing app I’ve used. The transitions and effects are amazing. But, every time I try to edit, I’ve noticed the lag gets worse and worse and then it crashes. Now it’s to a point where as soon as I open VivaCut or a project I’m working on, it crashes.
Keep in mind, I’ve deleted and reinstalled, restarted my iPad, have all the newest updates and I have multiple gigs of free storage. I don’t know why this is happening but please fix this! I’ve genuinely considered buying pro - and I’m super stingy with money and memberships - but I won’t pay for a crashing app

And one suggestion! Please let us play our videos if they exceed the 5 minute mark. Sometimes I add videos just to find clips but then I have to go to my photos and hear what’s being said to figure out if I want to trim it out of the edit or not, all because I can’t play it in VivaCut .
Maybe keep it so you have to have pro to save your video if it’s over 5 minutes, but at least let us preview it before then. Ty!

I rate it 3 stars because I feel that there is too much pro transitions, all of the cool ones are pro version. I am trying to make tik toks and use cool transitions but I can’t because of the pro version, the pro version is very expensive I think you should make an update that makes some of the really cool transitions not pro like at least 3 of each transition thing like there are slide ones glitch ones move ones that’s what I mean bye transition things, I just don’t think it’s fair that the free trial is so expensive and you are only putting like 2 transitions that I can use without having to buy the free trial I would like you to make it so I can use more transitions without the free trial please and thank you.

I paid a lot of money for all the features and effects, which are great but for the price it isn’t worth it. VivaCut can be super slow when playing the video out when I try to put in a lot of effects and cut the video into a lot of pieces. I’m trying to make a music video where it shows a clip of the video and it turns black quickly to the beat of the music. While trying to cut the video the the precise time that the beat is, it’s extremely difficult because I can’t tell if I’m doing it right. The video doesn’t play out like it should when I’m editing it. The music is fine but it’s like the video stops sometimes and tries to catch up by skipping ahead. I’m sure there’s better apps for this. I wasted my money.

Everytime i try to edit it freeze a lot of time still glitch. Why cant you even fix them? It happens all the time it wont even stop. I cant do much of my edits now... its kinda annoying -.- im trying to stop my freezing and crashing, but it wont even stop, it just keeps on going and going, im really stressed, i cant even do anything about it :/ but i really love VivaCut, its mostly what i use for my editing, i use other apps but this is my fav app that i like using to edit mostly i tried to delete it back and fourth it doesnt help the lag and freeze. Im scrolling down the comments and a bunch of complain like mine. I know im being rude but i really love VivaCut though! Its not trash or anything just a problem with my freeze and a little bit of lag. When i got VivaCut it had no freeze no lag. But then it started doing it when i had it for a while. I dont know whats going on but VivaCut is amazing! I love editing on VivaCut and VivaCut i usually use. I just got it today i think. This freezing continues. Its an issue for me. Cant even handle it. Hope you read this. I can say that you dont respond to many comments so i dont know if your gonna see this.

Ok can the developers please read this. First of all my app does not crash. But..... I can not make edits on this EVERYTHING is not free and when I go to export it says buy the pro blah blah blah and I’m so done it’s either good free editing app with a HUGE ANNOYING water mark or it’s a app that’s not free and I just want you to have less pro transitions or make the pro cheaper ITS SO EXSPENSIVE 14 BUCKS A MONTH you need to make it cheaper or do what I said because I’m trying to make edits for my idol and I thought VivaCut was good but... it’s not that good. The layout is nice and it’s easy to use I like that but the transitions I only care about the transitions plzzz fix it because I’m not paying 14 bucks a month or 90 bucks a year or something. Off to Funimate again until this is fixed! Thank and if you respond you guys are legends!

I love VivaCut, and I used it so much when I was subscribed, but I just can’t afford it. I don’t know how the pricing comes out, so I’m not one to say that they’re overpricing it (though it feels overpriced to me), but I feel like it would be more efficient for EVERYONE involved, INCLUDING the developers, if they made this change:

On the screen where you’re given the this app Pro options, it lists the different areas that Pro will give better access to, such as no watermark, all transitions, no time limit, and all filters. I think these should each have an individual, one-time buy option that’s less that $5. That way, it’s not a subscription, but people like me who can’t afford a subscription/higher payments for everything can still pick priority options to buy.

This way, buying them all individually would end up being more expensive than the monthly subscription. I’m pretty sure most people make more than $15 a month, so that’s not a route people will likely choose. So, the people choosing to buy those options individually are the people who, most likely, couldn’t afford a subscription at all. A one-time payment may sound cheap to the guys rolling in the money, but a one time payment is more than the NO money you’ll get otherwise.

Anywho, I've said my piece, and I strongly encourage the developers look into it.

Great app, love the transitions! I’m a Pro Member, and I use this and FilmoraGo to edit my videos, and it makes it looks much smoother!
One problem I have though, is that it’ll randomly crash, or VivaCut will not let me use the file, example: Was working on a edit, and I closed it and went to eat. Came back and when trying to enter, all my photos were pitch-black, and it crashed. Couldn’t edit that file.
Another Example: I was doing a lip sync with a character from a video game, and it also crashed. Ended up having to reinstall it, losing all my old progress.
VivaCut is overall great, but I wish it wouldn’t do this! I recommend this to all users, but please randomly export it so you don’t lose everything!

I like VivaCut , but I do have a few issues.

1. The subscription is very expensive, especially for kids like me. My parents are already paying enough for me to have a roof over my head, Food to eat, and stuff to make my life essentially comfortable. They’re not gonna pay $14 for a month of pro subscription, nor are they going to pay for a $60 subscription for a year. It’s just too expensive for an app

2.The crashing. Almost every time I open VivaCut , it’ll crash after five seconds of me opening it. Luckily for me, unlike other people, it’ll save my work that I did in the five seconds of that being open but it still crashes and it gets really annoying. This only happens when I try deleting the audio.

3. The limited perks. When you have the free version you only get about 34 different things that you can do to edit your video. It’s just not really fair because the pro members that can afford the pro subscription get thousands of perks. All the people who can’t afford it, or just don’t wanna waste that much money on an app, stuck with the minimum amount of perks.

If y’all can fix these issues, I would be grateful.

*UPDATE*
To the developer response:
I do not have insufficient memory. I checked before writing this review.

I love VivaCut a lot but recently it has been crashing and glitchy. Whenever I press play and pause it or change something it ether doesn’t pause or when I go to change what I wanted to it starts playing again and doesn’t stop, even when I close out of VivaCut or turn my phone off so I have to just wait for it to be done playing. And if I stay in VivaCut and wait for it to be done it just kicks me out. So I’m literally not able to even use VivaCut . It’s all updated, if tried multiple times, different times of the day less photos in the edit, but nothing seems to fix the issue. I really can’t do anything On it without this happening. And I feel if I can’t use it there’s no reason for me to have it downloaded on my phone. But It’s a really great app and I feel like it would be a waste for me to just end up deleting it cuz of a glitch.

I downloaded VivaCut because i wanted to make anime edits. The first 20 minutes were perfect but when i wanted to make another edit, right after i selected the photos the screen completely freezed and started playing the video with its own transitions i couldn’t get out of do nothing so i quit VivaCut and started again then i tried opening it again and the same thing happened. I eventually got tired so i went into the template area when i wanted to make a template i clicked use selected the photos and when i tried to see it, it completely freezed again and then i tried AGAIN after quitting VivaCut for the 10th time so i decided since everytime i want to see the video it freezes then i don’t watch the video at all and just export but then the screen freezes at 58% export so basically the whole app freezes it doesn’t let you do NOTHING im deleting and not recommending this until they fix it. Thanks❤️.

For a while I have been looking for a good editing app for the edits I make and haven’t been able to find one with good transitions and this one has just what I need and I love it so much😍😍 but the problem is, the first time I used it it worked perfectly fine and i was exited to make a cool video but I attempted to make a video with pictures and I went to the draft after closing VivaCut and it didn't load in and just closed out VivaCut same thing happened when I clicked next to get to editing after choosing the pictures I wanted to use so now I’m not even able to use VivaCut

by Lucy1233455

It is an awesome free to download app that is easy to make pictures into videos! But it has fails sometimes my pictures that I put in won’t show the full picture! But that’s simple the big thing is it always ask for me to buy a premium every time I open VivaCut so I can you special effects! But VivaCut has no ads and dose not have glitches or anything that will make you delete this it! Then again this is not an app that is for advanced editing it just to make you photos into a cool short clips!

Definitely recommend!✨

by Lonely Boyo

I really loved using VivaCut cuz it was quick and easy to make video edits but now I can barely do anything. The video will play but then everything except the video preview starts to freeze up not allowing me to do anything. The video viewing works but will not allow me to edit anything or add effects after the first second. I’ve uninstalled and redownloded VivaCut several times and turned my phone on and off and the problem still occurs.

by Lj Faalaulau

As I’m trying to edit some clips, not even 1 minute into VivaCut and it crashes!!! I restarted my phone same thing... fix this ASAP. It would be a really good app if it didn’t crash every 35 sec.

by Valiii.P

This is app is bad
I’ve made so many edits before VivaCut started to act up I spent hours working on them, I didn’t use VivaCut for about a week and once I got back in I tapped one of my edits and it went white it was a blank screen I also went into my other edits but they did the same except for one that specific edit was all glitched and it was my favorite edit before all of this happened VivaCut was perfectly good I don’t understand why VivaCut got all jacked up but I’m hella mad about it and that’s not the only thing there’s other things that happen when I try to create a new edit but it’s hard to explain what it does
All I know is that y’all need to fix this bug.

by Its Amoos Tv

Please bring overlay back it was amazing but the rest of VivaCut is really good

by Addisyn Gamer

It’s relatively a good app for Edits other than you have to pay for most of the transitions, but oh my god is it annoying when it kicks you off VivaCut and you have to get back on, and you realize it didn’t save anything you just did, I’m deleting VivaCut just cause of that!!! Y’all fr need to fix that cause that’s what most of these people are complaining about!!!

by Box223

It’s got great features but after working on something for 45 minutes and then it quits out and I can’t get back to my project is so annoying. I can’t even figure out how to move clips on the timeline. It also has a mind of its own and deletes transitions all the sudden. Know before buying 💰

by Alexapurple21

When I finish creating my project the next hour my pictures in the project are black and I don’t know how to fix it...I need an explanation.

by Nice Perso

Almost all the transitions are “pro”

by Nxssy

I cannot seem to understand why every time I get half way through a project and even having pro version, I cannot save my progress, Either that or Idk how to, Other then that VivaCut is amazing! Please respond with a solution.

by QuietArts

I love VivaCut but it’s not saving any of my project when I create them, is there a way to fix this problem?

by Jocelyyn.k

Love VivaCut , but please make it so that users can create multiple project files. It’s frustrating having to delete progress just to start a new video edit.

by Maritza Beth

Okay so I was going to give it a 5 star but I was doing a edit that I was working on for 6 hours and I could not save and so I thought it would save on its own but then the next day it was all gone 0 of it and I worked really hard on it too >:(

by Cheertang

This is the best pro video editor I’ve used ever. Cool translation/visual effect/key frame function/chroma key/video mask.....
Highly recommend

by Loogye57

I wish Pro was free why dont you put more better sounds too not just weird Chine beats 😂

by Polkinhoiyt

Thank you so much! Fixed it!

by BlueCreeeperYT

Please make a option to save. I want to go back later but nooooo. I have to restart. It’s such a good app but horrible saving features. So many people have been asking for this but you still refuse to do it. Is it that hard to add a saving feature? It will make a lot of people happy.
