WeVideo - Video Editor & Maker Reviews

by Kyler Blose 1235678

So my teacher told us to use WeVideo in order to get everything we needed into one place for a project that’s due tomorrow right? So I take charge and I create my own account and give my group the login stuff they need so we can upload whatever footage we have on our iPads and have it in one spot and low and behold I CANT LOGIN!!! It keeps saying that it’s not the right information so I had my friend create an account and share the info with us and I downloaded this onto my phone and IT STILL DOES NOT WORK! This project is due tomorrow morning and I have to do my part in editing this video but I can’t get into either of the accounts!! I really wanted to like WeVideo because it sounded really cool but so far I’m not impressed. I’ve reset my password already and created two different accounts and it still doesn’t work.

Someone please explain this to me! I’m willing to listen but I’d really prefer for this whole login process to be much easier and simpler than it is currently or someone just tell me what I’m doing wrong so I can get into our shared account and do my part in the project!

DO NOT GET WeVideo! This is my first time writing a review, bc I never brother with it, but MAN has this made me angry!!! The program, interface and all look simple enough for u to work with, BUT, don't be fooled by the free trial period they offer!!! I just spent 5+ hours editing a video, only to find out I actually have to BUY the full version in order to save/export it! Notice that they don't actually give any notice about this, so you end up spending hours of work to get nothing! Man I was even going to buy it, bc it is simple enough for me, but I don't want to have ANY connection with this kind of FRAUDULENT behavior! You just lost a potential customer, AND I WILL tell everyone I know not to get NEAR your company! THATS JUST FREAKING BAD COMPANY POLICIY!! GET YOURSELF TOGETHER. I don't know how these reviews work, but I guess you can't swear so I'll just leave you with these emojis, and you just guess what they mean ❗️⁉️‼️🚫⛔️❕❓❔‼️🚭⛔️🚭🔞🚷🚭🚫🚳🆘😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡

It kind of hard to edit when your videos are black, the computer version works great, but I’m not loving WeVideo . I’m trying to make a video for a school project, and I’m on a deadline. Please fix. I’ve tried restarting my tablet and everything too. I have premium paid by my school. But still my videos are black. It’s not on my camera/photo’s end... also, it is terribly hard getting sound effects on, I had to download another app (iMovie) just to edit a clip to there, save it then upload the video to this app, iMovie is much better than WeVideo in my opinion, at least for editing clips.

Update: now more than half of my clips are black and my deadline is uncomfortably near... may have to switch to iMovie and remake my entire project. Very disappointed.

This program is used by my schools so we can make videos about certain subjects. But WeVideo version FREAKING STINKS. You can add any of the moving backdrops, text readings (except for the title which is their when you open a new video anyway), or shapes, or anything in the desktop version. I want to create videos of me reading out stuff, WITHOUT showing my face, but I cant because I’m required to put one of my picture into the feed. I have to use my big heavy laptop every time i want to edit a video. And also, even if I login and make a video, once I realize I need my laptop and I save the video draft, it doesn’t transfer to the laptop version. In conclusion, I love the desktop version, but the freaking iPad and iPhone version needs to be heavily modified, adjusted, and made better. WeVideo sssssuuuuuuccccckkkks.

I heard great things about WeVideo, so I decided to check it out. My experience with iMovie wasn’t the best, so I got this. And here was my first thought upon checking WeVideo out:

“REALLY? I was hoping WeVideo would be cool, not the trash it is!”

Yeah! I don’t get how anything works in WeVideo. I mean:
• You can’t do a picture in picture
• There is no way you can remove the first part that is the title
• There’s this annoying ad at the end of the video
• You have to pay money to do basic things

I know I’ll probably figure out how everything works, but I was hoping you could make YOUR video and not just this app’s. That’s what it feels like. There are so many things that basically turn what could be an AWESOME video into something that should be thrown away.
I mean really, this app! The only reason I put 2 stars is because what I’ve seen and heard, and because there is no -3 star option.

So I’m on mobile and I found WeVideo really cool at first! But things went down, the more I added pictures the more I had to wait to add another one. Also, I need to add A LOT of pictures for one of my videos, and when I had to take a picture of something else I noticed that my data was very full so I thought “Oh, I’m done with these!” so I deleted some of them. When I went back on It said they deleted some of my frames because the photos can’t be found. Am I mean I get it but is there anyway to try and save it so when I delete a pick it doesn’t remove the frame? If I can’t I hate to do this because I really love WeVideo but I might have to just quit and find something else to do.

My teacher assigned a project for a reading contest called the #30secondbookchallenge and she told us to get WeVideo so I tried to get it but it didn’t work. So I tried again. And again. And again. But every single time I tried, it wouldn’t let me in. This gets me MAD because I need to finish this by tomorrow morning! Also I did half of this project at school but a big part of the grade is talking about my book. I haven’t even started the audio yet!! I only have about 10 minutes tomorrow to finish this, so please help!! I tried to login to my account but I think it didn’t work because my progress from today didn’t show up. Soooo, I don’t know what to do anymore.

It’s an okay website, but WeVideo is unnecessary and it didn’t even show my projects when I logged on, even though it showed them on the website. As for the website, it’s okay, but I don’t like how it downsizes the quality when you actually want to view the video, even though the actual clips are of higher quality. Another thing: why can only one person work on the project at a time? I’m not sure if this is a “feature” that you have to pay for (I’m running the school version), but I do know that whoever designed that definitely never worked on a group project at school. Developers: PLEASE fix these issues!

Um so I was doing some animations and hoping to put in audio, but whenever I do, it won’t let me play the video anymore. I would press the button, and it’ll show the “II” icon as if it’s playing, but it would stay on the first frame. This only happens whenever I try to put audio in and I don’t know why Q^Q I’ve noticed this not only prevents me from playing the video but it also prevents me from saving it.

Also where is the green screen? I purchased WeVideo specifically to use green screen but I can’t find it lol

Besides the errors, WeVideo actually works well and makes my life a whole lot easier.

Alright so I have had WeVideo for awhile(over a year?) and experienced this before. Now, I thought it was just maybe a bug but now that it happened a second time, my patience has worn thin. I can’t get into WeVideo . Even if I try it will show the loading screen and about 10 seconds later it crashes. I’ve tried to fix it, checked for new updates, nothing. I was scrolling through these reviews and saw nothing about this. I just got my new phone so it can’t be that, I wanted to get a response to see if anything there is to fix this! PLEASE RESPOND!!!!

by ******}^^}^}**{*{*}*}^#^^}^{

i only rated it highly because then it would show up….. Every time i use this to edit something it always crashes. Also, when i finish a video and refresh WeVideo , the videos go gray and i can never see the videos i made. And when I try to save and export the video to my camera roll, it does load.

please fix this.

Hey, great product! I just recommend adding better and smoother transitions. Also 2 features I think that could be vital to making this editing software better is adding the ability to tilt video files and edit text better, currently there are very limiting text options, you should be able to choose colors for a border color and inner color from a color wheel. Also adding a few fonts and the ability to import/copy paste fonts would be great!

An optional thing I think that could also be added are smoother animations.

There’s a slight possibility that could change witch is the songs. There isn’t any good songs and there not even real. For the change I would want to have a good start for songs like Disney songs or popular songs like the Beatles. See what I mean? I also HATE that you have to get premium just for like idk most of the songs?! It’s very disappointing that I can’t use barley any of the songs and I have make some of my own sound effects. But out of all I love the game and it makes me feel good when I’m bored 😄

So I have been using WeVideo for almost a month and it is doing great. I use it for gacha life. The only problem that I don't get is the exporting. When I try to export it, it tells me to make space for storage backup or whatever. So I deleted a few photos and it exported. The next day I went to edit and I exported it again. But it said the same thing so I deleted a few apps this time. A few hours later, I edit then try to export again. It kept saying that and now I barely have any apps and only 3 videos and 1 photo AND IT KEEPS SAYING THAT! I really don't know if it has something to do with WeVideo or my settings because it is really annoying and I don't want to delete anymore stuff since I have barely any apps and 1 photo and 3 vids

I’ve always wanted to edit my videos and when I do, they ask for my password and it’s also confusing. this app don’t need no password, not even email! It’s also free! 100% free! And no need to do confusing apps anymore! Download this app and add music to your vids! You can also turn pictures, to videos! I am honestly gonna use WeVideo every week to edit my vids, not any other apps except this app! :)

My family, gotta love them, said something at a boy scout meeting that I could make a video for them and it would be a piece a cake. 😅😅 But they have no idea how long it takes to make a quality video using iMovie(well not amazing but decent). They wanted me to take, literally thousands of photos from the past 8 years on my phone and edit. My iPad is broken so it’s basically just my phone and laptop atm. Compared to about 15 other apps I’ve tried this is probably one of the easiest and least frustrating! Luckily I’ll have several months to complete this project so I’ll have time to play with this some more! I can’t wait! Seems a whole lot less glitchy and less payment issues!

Edit: Really good! Disappointed about the only one song part! Realized though if you make your show in song parts then line it up in iMovie it works pretty easy! Also can cut that ending ad part if you don’t want to upgrade! The little symbol isn’t that bad during the show and it’s way easier than doing everything through iMovie!

Not the best video editor in the world. I would say don’t get it on a mobile devices because it’s confusing on there. I think this is meant to be a computer app instead of mobile app. The green screen is the only thing that makes it different from iMovie (iMovie’s free) and the green screen doesn’t work that good, or at least not “Hollywood style” as they clam. I think I wasted $4.

I used this app for a video project for school and it worked very nicely. There was a watermark on the video but honestly as long as I was able to do it, I was okay with it. Anyways, just wanted to say that the premium packages are very worth it. I was able to present it with no difficulties. Thank you this app for making my experience a little more tolerable.

by Meep Gurl

So yeah, I’ve been using this app for a while on my phone, and well... it’s not all to bad, it’s just that when I want to delete a clip it’s kinda difficult to do that because there’s no delete option. Also, I’d like to say that you should also get to put in more than one fill, because that would be soooo much better! Anyways it’s a great app, pls notice this, and update WeVideo , and yeah that’s pretty much all I have to say!

Hello fellow corgis ! I have some suggestions to make for WeVideo ! I love how it is already,but I want improvements >:D
Here are some suggestions:

1. I want to be able to send the vids to YT so other people can see ! But you can only do it with premium

2. Just like actual cameras, how about there's a drone view, so there would be a button saying: Drone View. And if you press it-it would make it look like it's a drone !

3. I was wondering if we could put the pictures we take and put it on the vid,like if I press a picture it would say: Put in video.
And then you can show your pictures !

4. Able to zoom in ! When your making a video there would be a button in right hand corner saying: Zoom in. And there would be a joystick-and you can zoom in and out !

Last. Hmmm XD how about we are able to...oh boy,
Make animations, I know it might be a lot, but with maybe a couple of years you will get it !

Ok, that's it for now ! Bye my fellow corgis!

WeVideo has amazing affects and makes me feel so happy!! This has happened a second time and I wanted the developers to know about this. This has made me very mad because literally all of my memories are in WeVideo. WeVideo crashes after like a year. I looked up on google for how to solve a crashing app and I downloaded WeVideo again signed in to my account and it was fine again. Then after a few months it crashed again. Please fix this glitch!! Btw: thank you for reading this. Means the world 🌎 to me!!

by AKCman35

I like this, but there are some missing features. Why can’t I copy some of the slides? I have to put the same identity every time I place it in the video and don’t have a repeating feature. Please add a duplicate button. Second, there are some transitions needed. I would like it to fade into the next slide without it turning darker before the next slide, or to white it out before the next slide. Finally, it’d be nice to have an ending text space like the title allows, to say something before stopping the video. Otherwise WeVideo is nice.

by HappyPerso

Ok so other than that, pretty good. You get to make a movie and things. But what else? You download something from this app. Then you have to keep waiting and waiting!! And then you cancel. Then it happens again! You see that loading bar again and again and you still click cancel. So other than that, pretty good. But still, pls help!
