Ratings and reviews

First time using Filmage, worked smoothly on my M1 MB Pro. Within the timeline, I was able to splice the video and secondary sountrack along with adding a fade out transition to close out the movie. This is trivial stuff but I’m pleased that I didn’t have to go outside of Setapp for an application. 04/28/26: Just wanted to add that I’m able to export video without issue.

Overall OK, but export is super slow... You should utilize many more CPU cores.

Only seems to support importing 20 seconds of audio, so not able to use this to create a 7 minute video.

Very sloooow to render

I left CapCut due to its draconian new usage rules and was looking for something that felt familiar. At first, the UX on Filmage felt familiar to CapCut. I was able to create a couple of 5-minute videos without too much trouble, even though there were fewer options (I understood and accepted that). But exporting was extremely slow, and even though I created a video in 9:16 from the beginning, it kept exporting in 16:9 with no option for 9:16. I ended up using another app to play the video and capture my own screen to get the video in the right size. I knew Filmage would have less features than CapCut but I never expected it to be so buggy and frustrating. Moving on to other options.

Export doesn’t work, so after you spend your time on a project, the wait hours for the video to be exported (which never finishes), you are left with nothing.

It freezes all the time, just do not work.

You can’t export video out of this program.

Good!

Terrible export for mp4

export doens working on new mac os

Unusable in the current state. Crashes immediately after opening

The app is ok, but export is broken. Given that’s the most important feature, it’s useless at this time… if they fix that, maybe it’s worth using it for basic video editing.

Impossible to do basic transition

Es un editor MUY simple pero funciona bien para lo básico. Necesita mejorar el proceso de exportación del video editado.

on MacOS15.6 - buggy. Can’t import images to the timeline, cannot get the ‘animations’ to apply to any clips. Shame as it looked promising, but don’t bother

After spending time editing a very short video, the app won’t export! I have tried various export options but nothing happens, it stays at 0% export. VERY annoying as it looks like it’s wasted my time. Setapp need to vet their apps better.

There is a serious permission problem when you want to export. And the app does not say anything at all. You just wait till, well it does nothing you can wait until eternity. So in case you want to save the export to a normal directory than the default one, well, DON’T. Otherwise you won’t be able to save it at all. In case you changed the default directory it is in Home->Library->Application Support->Filmage Editor the app can save and export to this directory, for other parts of your system, app does not ask for your permission, hence osx disallows but app forgets to tell you that something is wrong… The editing is simple-ish, but some controls are buggy and not so fluid.

Uso muy limitado y deficiente, la exportacion es eterna

extremely buggy
