Media Monster Reviews

First off, the flash for the front facing camera will turn on, but when you press the record button to stop the video it does not work. Closing MediaMonster just causes MediaMonster to crash and does not save the video.

Second, the Music is not integrated into the Media Monster app. All it is doing is playing the music from your speaker at the bottom of your iPhone, and your microphone is recording it from the speaker. Thus making the music quality sound horrible.

Fix these issues, and I will give a higher rating.

MediaMonster costs money to buy, then screws up constantly. Half the time you can’t film at all, other times the videos simply don’t save regardless of what you do or how much time you give the saving process. The membership is expensive and the features,m don’t work, at all, period. If you lost a video to MediaMonster’s mistakes or because it crashed, even becoming a member wont allow you to successfully restore lost videos.
If you use film for your income, do not use MediaMonster.

I want to love MediaMonster but it continues to disappoint. MediaMonster goes through a series of iterations, however each release comes with a new set of problems. For over two months now every time i close MediaMonster , the music completely stops as well. Music constantly pauses when either starting a video or when navigating to playback of a video taken. Also, MediaMonster has crashed number of times resulting in an error where the video was completely lost. Not acceptable.

Previously media monster was a paid app, I purchased it and loved it for a long time, the most recent updated have made the camera look grainy, they have added a “subscription” option (did I not pay for MediaMonster initially?) that has features that I am not sure what the point is. It was a great app but not all my videos come out in poor quality, the settings that used to be there for image quality are gone and MediaMonster is now trash. Will be deleting and do not recommend.

Don’t get me wrong I like the features on MediaMonster, especially where you get to play music and record at the same time. But, the one thing that gets me really mad is that I had to pay $2 for MediaMonster then it’s telling me to buy a subscription for full features. If I buy MediaMonster then give me full access for free. Don’t make me buy MediaMonster then hit me with a buy a subscription for full features... I want my money back, or a subscription.

I’ve been toying with MediaMonster for around 20 minutes now, and despite having explored every nook and cranny of the software, my videos are NOT saving with the music I am playing. Yes, the videos do record while music plays, but I want my videos to record my music AS WELL. and that, simply put, is not happening. What a disappointment, especially after seeing a comment from MediaMonster ’s producer recommending MediaMonster on a STEEZY video.

It does work but it doesn’t save the video. Not even to my camera roll. It did do it once. But not anymore. When I’m recording and I switch to another app I want it to keep recording but it doesn’t. When I return to MediaMonster I have to press the record button again.

After using MediaMonster a little more I found out that it will not save a 30 minute recording. I don’t know what the maximum limit is. What I do now is stop recording after about 10 minutes and it saves fine.

The mic works the video works but when you sing to the music it works. The trouble is that the play back of the music is very quiet almost as if the headphones are only picking up the music from the headphones microphone itself. There’s no music ... can you please fix this or clarify what your product actually does. Does it record music and video and microphone sounds at the same time and then play them back with the music with volume volume. A little bit disappointed please help.

This application has a lot of promise, the only issue I have is that the microphone is extremely sensitive to any vibration of the users hand. As your shooting the video it can pick up slight movements of the user and won’t pick up the ambient music and leaving you with muffled sounds; ruining the point of MediaMonster which is to take video while hearing your music! Try after try despite my efforts it happens every time.

It really is a good app for what its supposed to do but there are 2 things that I dont like about it
1. you have to import songs everytime you record even if you previously imported the same track.
2. I cant re-start the audio or rewind it if I need to go back to redo something in my video. I literally have to import a whole new song then import the song I originally wanted just to restart the track or to play a piece of a song.

Other than that its ok but having to pay for these issues isnt what Id continue doing.

I purchased MediaMonster so I could record video and keep my music playing. For that purpose MediaMonster is as advertised. However, I’ve found that MediaMonster does not work with my Bluetooth shutter remote. Adding that functionality to MediaMonster would definitely earn it a 5th star

I use MediaMonster solely to record my lifts (I’m pretty serious with my lifts) and of course need my music to stay psyched and focused. MediaMonster has never failed me in keeping my music running at full quality while recording crisp clips of my lifts. It has crashed a couple times since 2019 but not while I was recording so it’s not an issue at all.

MediaMonster is such a blessing. Apple dropped the ball with the fact you cant take a video & play music at the same time... MediaMonster solved everything!!
I can take any amount of videos with music playing and then post it anywhere! I love it. I didnt even know my phone could shoot in 4k! MediaMonster is showing me so many new things, MUST HAVE!!!

MediaMonster does exactly what it says🎉. It allows you to play music while recording video, a super handy feature!
Despite not appearing to have portrait mode, if you flip your device to the desired orientation, it will record that way (not sideways). It has flash mode, selfie mode, and outward-facing camera mode, it has the option to take pictures, it has self timer (3 seconds, 5, and 7), quality options, splicing options, and a load of cool filters to boot!
Now, here's a note. MediaMonster is a little finicky when it comes to interruptions (such as FaceTime calls). Make sure that it is in fact recording afterward and you won't have any problems.

The developer is very friendly and responds to emails very quickly; he responded to my request in less than an hour!

Overall, I rate MediaMonster 4 & 3/4 stars. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫

Sometimes it’s buggy when it’s updated, but generally speaking this is an amazing and incredibly helpful app. When it isn’t working properly, the developer is always quick to fix it.

It’s currently working perfectly and is the best version yet. Definitely worth the money!

Great app!! Responsive developer!!

I’m impressed before MediaMonster would take tons of space, even deleting the videos you recorded it would still keep the data on MediaMonster without having the actual video anymore, building up and taking space when you don’t want it too.

The developers response was phenomenal! He fixed the error and it no longer holds excess data behind it! He listens and responds in kind to what we have to say! I’m truly thankful!
I recommend it to anyone who wants to play music and record videos at the same time! It does exactly that! Thank you:)

Love MediaMonster and how this works. Will give 5 stars once it supports using the ultra wide angle on the iPhone 11. The option is there in the menu but I’ve tried a ton of different combos and still can’t use the ultra wide angle on MediaMonster. can anyone suggest how to fix this ?

It’s almost 2019 and apple is still hindering your phone capabilities. This lets you do exactly what you want it to do...film while playing music from the same phone. Boom. Worth every penny.

MediaMonster does all it says. I don't why people are complaining about not being able to record long videos when I just did in 4K at 60 frames per. Second while playing music. The time to save a video takes a while but it's a very long and high quality video. I would recommend MediaMonster to anyone looking to record high quality video and playing music

I really like the features and how MediaMonster is easy for a dummy like me to use.👌😌 I’m a rookie beginner at this TikTok-Instagram-Snapchat-Reels video editing stuff, like all the other platforms-apps, I cannot hardly navigate around most of them for video editing🤔🧐 besides the real boring simple ones.🙄 The editing-effects buttons are all different shapes and logos😳🤦🏼‍♀️ and idk what they do so I take forever figuring that out wach one..wasting time right, 🤷🏼‍♀️plus I get all confused with all the extra features on there it’s overwhelming lol I’ve never done this or was taught how……so yeah…😏
But this one is self explanatory 👍and easy to figure out, for me anyway. That’s why they deserve 5 🖐️whole stars 🤩from this tech tard😜🤓😂
