VideoPad - Video Editor 4+

Good app to learn on

I was new to video production and I found this app easy to learn the ropes. No it’s not perfect but I’m still learning and there are things that frustrate getting things done but you can still produce quality videos with ease.

Better off with pc version

I think that the pc version of this app is a really good editor, and that it is a great editor to use. However the mobile version has a a huge let down. I decided to download it as I am on holiday and can’t use my pc, and I was exited to see that there was also a mobile version of video pad, however I instantly realised that this version was not only not very efficient, it also couldn’t live up to very standard expectations, as I couldn’t add or use videos (the whole foundation of the application) as whenever I went to this section my app crashed. I would give this a 1 star rating, but I can honestly say that the pc version is an amazing piece of software.

Comically bad

I use videopad on my desktop very often so decided to give it a try on mobile as I'd be familiar with the layout and it was a terrible idea.

First off, the UI is abysmal, theres no way to navigate where you're up to in the video without zooming out and zooming in on a tiny bar (which is incredibly difficult to get right)

Additionally, there's seemingly no way to select multiple clips on the tracks in order to mass copy/paste.

After 30 minutes of trying to literally just copy/paste a 2 second video file, with the second one reversed to form a longer video loop, I finally exported the file.

The export system is seemingly broken. The file was completely distorted, random colours filled the screen in big bars and it was completely unintelligible.

Absolutely do not waste your time on this finnicky app, try the desktop version instead which is far better and easier to use, and also has a functioning export system.
