Water mark bug
I have a hug where after I watch ads for the water mark to be removed,I can’t exit the ad once it’s over I set there on the ad screen being told to download a game for an hour I even downloaded the game thinking it will set everything back in order
Not good for advanced editors like me.
This app is too basic for an experienced creator like me. First of all, here are the bottlenecks:
•No flame effect to add to PIPs unlike After Effects
•No frequency modulation below 31Hz
•No Vector Contours
•Low quantity of effects
•Less customizability
Main Problem: Moreover, the videos made in this look trashy and poorly made no matter how hard I try. I apologise if I sound too weird or harsh but sufficiently said, this app doesn’t seem like it is made for users from all walks of life.
Nuance: While it does have some advantages like ripple deletion and/or voice changes, the more advanced features are still locked behind paywalls that the general public may find frustrating like me. I have tried this app for years but I never felt a genuine feeling that I was complete.
Anecdote: Moreover, my channel viewers said that my videos on InShot look poorly made. To that I agreed. I understand that this is made for short edits but even those can need some advanced features. Improvements it(the app) could make:
1.More effects
2.More transitions
3.Adding better stickers
4.Better features for long-form creators
So, I would like to end the reply with: “I do not think the app is really bad. The bottlenecks usually come from the fact that it is a tad too basic.”

Fix audio glitch
I had a 20 minute long video i was editing for youtube and when i tried to add a bunch of sound effects it would add them and then the sound would work when i clicked on them, but when the video played, the sound effects would not be heard, i tried going back and fixing them and re adding them and logging out and back in the app but nothing worked. then once i went and tried upload the whole video it would not let me upload it, i think inshot is trying to purposely not let people upload long edited videos so that they can try to make money off of people because they want them to buy the inshot pro and it sucks because this editing app used to be good but now they dont let you upload long videos and give you problems when you dont have inshot pro.
Ugh
It keeps say that I don’t have enough cache storage and I can’t save my videos🙄
