i absolutely LOVE this app. I've been using the old photo animation and the AI is scary smart. there are other apps similar to this that just don't pick up on the little details of the pictures like this app does. it distorts faces sometimes, but it does it's best, which is pretty darn good! lost my dad in 2024 and it's been making us cry, smile, and laugh seeing pictures of him move like a short video. I usually never pay for apps, but I did with this one and I don't regret it! thanks videa!!!
Reviews for Videa: AI Video Maker, Effects
← Back to Videa: AI Video Maker, Effectsworst app I've used in years. AI prompts don't work correctly and the app just produces second-rate content. I've had it 1 day and already deleted it after trying to create a few basic shorts it struggled and created something I could have done just with my phone. Do not purchase go McDonald's instead
App functions are good but I just bought a 500 coin package without being a subscriber and I can not for the life of me find where to refill the coins (without being sub) How was this possible once and never again, I bet you lose a lot of money and customers this way, i cant become a sub neither because my card isnt biometric? are u guys serious ? looks like you still got rookie technical issues.
*Changed - my credits have yet to restock for my subscription, and it kept taking more credits for each use than it was supposed to, leaving negative credits somehow. Tried customer service who says contact Google, though app and Google show sub active, & restoring purchases shows active. Try logging in again, and the OTP code sent always says incorrect. App and sub already paid for is completely unusable, and I'm owed months of credits plus extra credits taken plus extra I had to buy.
3 videos made, 2 without being logged in because accidentally cookies didn't realize that to start, then the 3rd was made and ALL videos have no music, no audio, just ridiculous. I deleted and want a full refund as I'm not letting something like this! gimme a freaking break! if I could rate 0 stars it would be too much.
I Enjoy the app but there's an issue for me. I'm a female and have been enjoying the gender swap feature. However, I paid for the subscription and never got my coins. I paid several times and used the gender swap feature and it turns me into a female when I'm already a female. It's a huge waste of my money. I've deleted like 10 videos and have too many that turned me into a different looking chick. It's insulting. Can I get reimbursed please for all the failed AI videos that Didn't work?
10/03/25 just a quick update. on my last comment. apparently you have to wait maybe 5 or 10 minutes after purchase before receiving their coins. afterwards it's immediately after everything purchase. besides that I spend enough time with this app to say it definitely seems to live up to it's words
😭 i used this app for fun but i just wasted money !! thank God i only used 3 dollars, if i had gotten the $8/week or $40 annual subscription, i probably would've lost my MIND. i spent 70 coins for a "kissing" video. (HAHAHA ITS SO STUPID) The demos show the exact characters moving from the photos to kiss. but my video came out, and there was a "pan" transition, and two completely random/different people were kissing. wth!!! dont waste your money yall. it doesnt come out how its advertised!
Didn't like the pay wall before you can use the app. much better to just let people buy tokens per video. Plus its using AI engines that are free to use to render your stuff. Its not the actual AI as you send the content to another service but charge to do so. Something doesn't sit right with me about that. I paid the 40$ subscription and then have to pay for tokens when you run out? Don't make a paywall then expect people to keep paying for tokens in app. Just not worth it.
Doesn't even allow me to see all pictures in my gallery. I see about 20 from each of my albums and can't scroll any further. Don't know if it's a user error on my part or something that isn't supposed to happen even after allowing all access to my gallery. Also didn't even open the app for 10 seconds and got 5 ads just for the first 4 scrolls of introducing the app. It happens every time I opened the app too. I gave up and uninstalled. (Can't import the image I wanted to actually use)
I had over 100k "coins" saved up on my account, but when I upgraded my phone, even though I did a direct copy from the old phone to the new one, every single coin was GONE. That represents HUNDREDS of dollars saved up, with NO way to get it back, or to contact customer service. Using "restore purchase" just triggers a stupid animation and nothing else. I may have lost my money,but at least I can save you some of yours.
Downloaded, and bought the yearly subscription which is not actually a subscription for a year. False advertising at its best. Then it did not have the set up as the ad showed. We all know the Bigfoot and yeti type things that are on Tiktok right now. Showed that, but isn't that. False advertising number 2. So I canceled my subscription 5 minutes after subscribing and seeing I couldn't do what I wanted and sent a mail to their feedback link and it came back as undeliverable so seems no refund..
The videos are ok. The AI can only understand and do so much. You have to test and try it out, I bought a yearly subscription because I thought, like every other subscription, the credits would regenerate daily or weekly. But I found out the don't regenerate at all. So to even get good at this tool you have to spend lots of money. But I can spend that same amount of money on Google labs and practically get unlimited time for the projects I'm doing. I really thought it wobe helpful but it is not.
Credits are too expensive, and you don't have an option to review the outcome. Twice I uploaded suitable photos, but they substituted 2 AI generated people that looked nothing like the original. One even was a creepy hipster with a creepy soul patch while the original picture showed no facial hair at all...Credits wasted because you don't get them back. Instructions are very limited and basic, and no explanation how to do certain things, so you make a mistake and your Credits are gone.
My problem with apps and systems like this is how much they expect you to pay without even giving you a chance to test it once or twice. $3 for 100 coins when each 3 second video costs 70 coins isn't such a bad price. Except I would like to know what I'm trying out first. Should provide a free one time try. Id be more willing to pay if knew it worked.
Don't do it, once you buy the app you have to buy more. I paid for the year and have to pay for more tokens just to use it. If I paid for a year I should have unlimited access. Other apps give you use without paying more. The AI is not good at all either. You spend credits just for it to repetitively mess it up, sub par comparatively to what is already out there. BUYER BEWARE
"I advise against purchasing the $39.95 annual subscription. They make it seem unlimited, but it's actually misleading advertising. Once your credits are used up, you have to pay again. I'll be uninstalling the app and canceling the card linked to this account to prevent any unauthorized charges next year. I guess this is what it takes to get people to try an app. This is the number one reason why I rarely download apps". Annual Subscriptions is extremely misleading.
A yearly subscription where you're limited to how many videos or pictures you want. You have to take what you get, which is never accurate. No refund on your coins when ai decides what the outcome will be. Good luck, it'll take every coin they give you to come close to what you're looking for. Maybe 3 videos if you're lucky. Don't waste your money.
it's ok, worked as expected, but it's not a yearly subscription. you only get a set amount of vids, then you have to start paying again. What's up with Google?? Allowing these A I apps stating one year subscription ploy?? l mean it's amazing what the app can do. But I wouldn't have paid that price if I had known. And thier response Sucks! they tell you, what you already found out, and you have to buy more. Google put a stop this false advertising!!!
DO NOT USE. They are scamming you. They advertise the subscription for $39.99 annually, but in reality, you're just buying some coins. Once they're gone, that's it. Make 3 Veo3 videos, and you're done. No monthly or weekly refill. Just the date next year for the next payment. You're back to paying for each video. Shouldn't be allowed to advertise a subscription service the way they do. And all they say in these review replies is " Sorry for any confusion." No, fix it. You know what's happening
