"So easy to use!"
5/5
What do you like best about iMovie?

iMovie makes video editing simple by stripping down editing tools, making it simple to use for any project. As someone who has learned to use larger mainstream video editing tools - I always go back to iMovie for it's ease. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iMovie?

The only downside is sometimes larger projects can take a bit a export. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"iMovie is a great editor to make simple videos"
3.5/5
What do you like best about iMovie?

iMovie is quite simple to use when it comes to creating a good video/movie with relatively little experience in movie editing.

The user interface is well designed and quite obvious in how it operates.

Adding audio, splitting clips and inserting text is very simple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iMovie?

So far everything has been great! I have not had any problems at all in the past couple of years of using iMovie. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"With iMovie I can transform ideas into videos with ease and style."
4.5/5
What do you like best about iMovie?

I love that the videos in iMovie are available in different downloadable and high-resolution formats which is very useful when I need to share content on social media. Its selection of pre-installed templates has a professional-level design that makes it easy to create captivating videos without any editing experience; overall the editing experience is pleasant with a clean and stable interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iMovie?

iMovie offers a lot and it's enough for me but those who are advanced users notice the lack of more detailed customization options or more control over animations to explore more creative ideas. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"iMovie has promise"
3.5/5
What do you like best about iMovie?

It's a robust editing software. I still have yet to explore all of its features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iMovie?

It's complicated dash and it is not easy to use. It's written for a computer programmer instead of a average user.

For instance, they have what is called "Events"? What the heck is that? You can tell a programmer designed it instead of hiring a UX team to make it easy for regular people to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Ideal for creating personal, short movies"
4.5/5
What do you like best about iMovie?

The best interface ever. It is supremely beautiful and aesthetic and really is fun to work in. Perfect for creating a cute small slideshow of pictures with simple animations and transitions. You will most likely not need to look up anything as it is fairly basic. You can make high quality outputs any time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iMovie?

It is fairly basic so you will be using all the features that are there; don't expect anything fancy from it. Not too many use cases outside of personal cute stuff, however professional stuff is possible as many elegant options to select from. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A great software for video editing"
5/5
What do you like best about iMovie?

I've been an avid user of iMovie for as long as I remember, as an animation student a lot of my projects have been made on this platform. There are great video editing tools that iMovie offers, and it's all free for Apple users. Some of my favorite tools that other software don't offer are the variety of transitions and themes that they have to create visual effects that give off a clean, professional look to the viewer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iMovie?

While it works out well for me since I am a Mac user, iMovie is not recommended for anyone who works on a windows operated platform. In that sense, it hs limited integration with other operating software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
