My Thoughts
ADVANTAGES

different effects. All the styles are of high quality, which provides the users with fantastic video
editing experiences
It is super easy and fast. The users can make a masterpiece within just several minutes,
which is accordance with the requirements of most users.
Replay provides the users with many editing tools, from trimming to recentering the video
clips, from adding text to changing the pace the pace of the video. The tools offered by
Replay make the videos more professional.
PART THREE
My Thoughts
DISADVANTAGE
Not so creative because the styles has been already designed by the
developers and users can only choose one style once from the library for
creating a video.
Only three styles are free every week. Even though the developer will rotate the
styles every week, the users need to wait for a certain style, but they will not
know when will the style comes free. Or, they have to pay for the style. The
whole package costs 78 HKD.
It will be better if more functions are developed. For example, allowing the users
to use multiple songs or make the music loop in one video will be a good choice.
Besides, ”resize” tool can also be taken into consideration for resizing the
photos and video clips.
