Software Reviews and Criticism

  Could improve usability

  It's a good example of an app designed to do one thing. Whether or not it is doing its one thing *well* depends a lot on your workflow. Don't expect to be able to add tags to video when adding them; don't expect any kind of advanced filtering or sorting. For example, you definitely can't filter/sort items that *do* have X tag(s) but *do not* have Y tag(s). You can't display items with X tag(s) but then sort or group items together with Y tag(s). Applying tags to items is probably one of the most annoying problems: You cannot select multiple items and assign tag(s) to all of them at once. It's even more frustrating that you cannot add tags while importing/adding items. It would be extremely nice to be able to select tags during import. It would be even nicer to have the option to automatically apply whatever tags are currently used as a filter when adding new items so that users don't have to reset their filters, go back to the full list of items, apply tags to items (one by one), and then set up filters again. That isn't a great user experience. However, the app is new and the developer seems eager to keep adding features and improving the app. It really is useful, and the many features that *are* implemented are pretty well thought out. I'll definitely be adjust my rating as the app continues to improve. Thankfully, this is exactly the kind of app I feel confident *will* continue to improve.

  Very useful

  It’s a very handy app, nice work and a bargain. One feature suggestion would be the ability to sort by tag. Edit: I realized my suggestion was not well explained. What I mean is a view option to display all tags, sorted by tag. So the first filter header is tag1, followed by videos with this tag; then a second header with tag2, followed by videos with that tag; etc.).

  Young app, but worth your time (and $)

  Very polished for such a young app, with a nice, simple (I mean that in the best way) design. The setting for deleting videos after watching them is a GREAT touch. One more thing that would bring this app closer to perfection? An Microsoft TV companion. Obviously only for watching, but I’d love to be able to pick up my queue from there and watch on the big screen. If that feature was added, it would be my long-awaited replacement to my *most* missed iOS (and I’ve had an iPhone ever since the first model) app of all time. That app—which I won’t specifically name— similarly was/is a “watch later” video queue that you could add to through a share extension. It was its Microsoft TV counterpart that took it to the next level for me, because I much rather catch up on my videos from the couch over any other alternative. I really, really, really, really hope this is under consideration and a possibility for the future!😉

  Great support (Update)

  I was confused about not having the IOS share menu supported but the developer helped me understand how it's done and, in respons to me wanting share menu support on the Windows, he just released a share extension for Safari. Fast and great suppor for this product!

  A Great Start

  This app is very nice. Super simple, and that is how I like it. A few things I would like to see: A sidebar on iPad, quicker tag editing, if i am filtering by "No Tags", when I add a tag, I am taken back to list view. I often want to add more than one tag to my untagged videos, but this app makes that impossible when the "No Tags" filter is active.
