"Great entry level editor"
5/5
What do you like best about iMovie?

I love the simplicity of the whole program. It is amicable for beginners and experts alike. I love that it is a lite (in relation to the competition) app that can be run on your desktop, laptop or even on your iPad or mobile device. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iMovie?

There is a lack of features compared to more professional editing software like adobe premiere pro or FinalCut. But as the old saying goes, beggars can't be choosers, and if you cannot afford the others, iMovie can still produce great content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The Ultimate Video Editing Solution for Mac and iOS"
4.5/5
What do you like best about iMovie?

One of the things i like best about iMovie is its user-friendly interface. Apple has done excellent job of designing a video editing software that is intutive and easy to navigate, making it accessible for both beginners and more experienced users. Additionally, iMovie seamlessly integrates with other apple devices amd services . If you are using iphone or ipad to capture footage , you can easily transfer it to mac and continue editing in iMovie

Another best feature that i liked is its extensive library of pre-built templates and themes. These templates provides a quick and effortless way to add professional -looking titles , transitions and effects to your videos Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iMovie?

The thing which i most dislike about iMovie is its availability exclusively on apple devices. iMovie is only compatible with mac computers which means users with windows and Android devices are unable to access and utilizes this software.

Another thing which i dislike about iMovie is its limited range of advanced editing features. While it strikes a good balance between simplicity and functionality. More experienced users may find ths software lacking in terms of advanced capabilities. iMovie does not offer as many options for precise control over audio , visual effects or advanced color grading Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Practical & simple to use"
4/5
What do you like best about iMovie?

It's straightforward and simple to use, so for those who'd like to make some edits without feeling like their skills aren't quite that of a video editor, imovie let's you do everything needed to trim, split, add audio and effects and title screens without it being too overly complicated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iMovie?

It can appear quite basic at times so some actions do require quite a few cuts and snips to be able to rearrange correctly or trim down a clip to how you need it to be exactly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Built-in, streamlined editing"
4/5
What do you like best about iMovie?

iMovie is intuitive, with controls where you'd expect them to be and shortcuts similar to other video editing programs. The templates and drag-and-drop interface make creating short projects a breeze. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iMovie?

iMovie doesn't always allow the kinds of fine-tuning that more experienced editors might be looking for. There are some limitations to the templated features that can be irritating if you use the program for a long time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

iMovie is so helpful because you can use your computer to edit multiple videos, which can then be resized for social media platforms such as TikTok and YouTube, and used on your website as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iMovie?

Nothing much to dislike but it does run a little slow if you are doing too many edits at once or have a big file to upload or download. It also could use an interface update but that's a personal perference. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like the least is when you trim your video and you added text on the segments, when you change the length of any part, the text is messing up and is moving to the next part. example, Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
