Pros / Cons
- With customer support not needed, strong security, value for money, video creation, project creation, animation and save and export tools, iMovie is essential.
- Processing time is a bit slower than others and I wish there was an easier way to create portrait size videos instead of the multi-step process I’ve been doing.

- It offers a whole set of tools and functions that allow you to add subtitles, effects, interesting transitions to your video, or add your own recorded voice as a soundtrack.
- The free version's download page did not openly note that one cannot use it in the free version to edit a video longer than 60 seconds, so now they refuse to give me access to my 2hour video without paying for a different version.
