User Reviews for InStories Reels & Story Maker

Great Potential

I really enjoy this app! It allows users to make their stories more appealing and unique. What was once exclusively done with apps like photoshop and premiere has now been simplified and accessible to everyday users! It’s great stuff! My only suggestion for developers and (something future users should take note of) has to do with the limitation on customizing content. Being able to delete and add photo boxes in each template would make this app a game changer. Also having the ability to adjust photo size and animation speed would be choice. I have tried numerous Instagram story editing apps and they all possess the same, or even more limitations. I have yet to come across an app with this many clean template options that also allow for customization! Please consider creating more ways for users to really own and create their own content. I will be suggesting this app on my social media pages to other creatives. I would love to see this app be #1 for Instagram story editors in the near future!

No more free music 🥲

I’m a social media manager and this app was my lifesaver! It had everything you needed to make great video content, and that included music. I don’t know how long ago this happened but their music selection is no longer available. You use to be able to add top 40 hits onto your video which was amazing for platforms like TikTok and Instagram. Now, you have to purchase the individual songs to be able to include them. I’m aware that this likely has to do with royalties, etc but if they offered it before what happened for this feature to be gone? Yes, there’s the royalty free music, but you can get that on any other app for free. Without the music feature, there’s really no point in paying for this app. There are other apps out there that are comparable and cheaper. Sad to be switching! I loved this app. ☹️

Not worth the money

I saw an ad and gave it to give this app a try. I also signed up for the 3 day free trial (after you get charged +$100 a year for the pro version). Maybe it’s because I’m actually a graphic designer but I really don’t feel this app is worth it. I mainly wanted to use it for some cool reel templates to save me some time and there are really aren’t many at all, and on top of that none of them are really interesting. For story templates I was also interested in checking out options with editable motion graphics. There’s one that I found under the “pride” section, but other than that not much. There are a few things with special effects text but you can’t edit the text. I also have seen any templates or anything resembling what they are using for their one ad where text is integrated into the video of the girl on the horse. All-in-all feels like a lot of fluff, templates are basically repeats of each other just different cuts, nothing special or new feeling that would make paying +$100 a year worth it.

Not fully functional for 3 day trial

I downloaded this app to use the templates to make reels. However there is no reel tab on the version I got. I've sent them 3 messages in the app about it but when I exit the app and open it again to check on the status of the message, the message is gone. It's as if the app is designed to not give you the premium features you want for the first three days and just have to end up paying for them to use them.

Mediocre tbh

This app is honestly mediocre at best. There are basically no free templates available. You have to pay for an incredibly expensive subscription to get any of the good ones. I understand the developers have to make money but they should at least give more features to non pro users. Not everyone has the money to pay for an outrageous subscription just for pretty basic designs. I know of other apps for making Instagram stories and graphic design that can do the same thing (if not 10x better) FOR FREE. I honestly think marketing this app as “free” in the App Store is a low key scam. Also this app is unnecessarily confusing to use. It won’t let you make your own design without forcing you to use one of their templates. Again I can name several other apps that are more user friendly, offer more free version features, are fully customizable, and are just overall so much better. I’ll be sticking with those apps, thank you. Tbh don’t even waste your time downloading this app.

next big thing

So I’ve been using this app for about a year now. I’m giving it 5 stars because it’s fully functional and the response team is quick and helpful. There is plenty of room to grow and they have been growing steadily since I joined. I’m hopeful they will continue to improve things. There are some glitches between updates and I really wish that everything would sync across devices. However, it’s always fully functional and during the rare crashes which tend to happen when I’m dealing with very large file sizes and probably due to my phones memory being nearly full it manages to save what I’m working on. The app does what it says it will do and should only get better. If they had a referral program I would be getting people signed up.

It worked well - until it didn’t

I’m using this app for the past 8 months, maybe even longer. In the beginning it worked well. Lately, I get messages “Server Error. Try again later” every 5 minutes, can’t really create anything. Searching for stock movies takes a very long time(if they load at all). The biggest annoyance is when I hit “save” and it I get an error message and my work isn’t saved. I already did the “delete app-install again”, didn’t help. The other issue I have with this app is the fact that when I manage to make a story video, 8 out of 10 times when I post my video on FB, I get a “dispute”message from a 3rd party about the stock videos I used in Instories app. Disputing the video changes on FB takes time and frankly, it’s getting annoying. I don’t mind if it happens here and there, but this is not something I want to deal with so often. I already checked and updated my phone, didn’t help either. I don’t think I’ll subscribe for another year.

Would be great if it didn’t force close!

I just downloaded this app today and really like the features! Unfortunately, despite having the most recent version of the app, the most recent update, and the most recent model of iPhone...this app force closes constantly. It’s impossible to export anything. Force closed at 40%, tried again and it force closed at 60%...so on and so on. I tried at least a dozen times and then to add insult to injury it started force closing on me while I was editing in the app as well. Extremely frustrating! The edits look great and it’s easy to navigate, but unfortunately the glitches just make it a waste of time since you can’t download anything. Hopefully something that can be fixed, but I’m the meantime I’ll be looking for an alternative app that functions properly.

Time saver at work

Helps so much with my social media promotion. I have access to photoshop and other tools but this one is my go to. It offers so many user friendly templates. I’m not overly creative so my first few projects were pretty cookie cutter but after getting comfortable, I make tons of really cool, unique content. I’m really amazed because It saves so much time and doesn’t cut into the quality of the post. It’s fantastic for all small business! I mean it’s great for everyone especially influencers. Super easy to navigate. I think most preteens could learn to use this app, it’s that easy.
