At first the app would not startup on both my devices, iPhone XR and iPad 8th Gen, but that was fixed on a new version. The results are amazing. The only issue is that it is slower than their website application but it is still ok. I would say about 30%-40% slower but still under a minute for the conversion. A good buy. Highly recommend.

CORPORATE GREEDY SLIMEFUX
To be fair, it did work. A ten second video took 1 minute and 29s to complete. The original 17mb video was a screen recording 1920x720. It upscaled it to 4K size, but it didn't enhance the video, if anything it made it slightly worse? The end result was 720p quality—File size 117mb. Same or slightly lesser quality at 10 times the file size! If you have reason to do this, download it.
Developer Response
Hello my friend. You are using the iOS version and trying to enhance the video from your mobile phone. Frankly speaking, iPhones are great for image enhancement, video enhancement is much more computationally intensive and is limited by the hardware resources available on mobile devices. As a result, the quality improvement may not be as significant as you expect. For the iOS version, I have claimed that it is using the traditional algorithm to upscale the video and the details improvement is not guaranteed. If you are looking for the best possible video enhancement results, I would strongly recommend using the macOS version. It has access to much more computing power and can produce significantly better results, especially for detailed and high-resolution videos. Best Regards
Great

I got free lifetime for free at the beginning of this app. After some updates, it told me that my subscription was expired. It's scam to get downloads count.
