App Store reviews

Users around the world are loving Stills

Once set up, a quick and easy

Great little "go to" app that extracts good photos from good videos. When you only have a video, this can "save the day" when stills are needed. Developer, responsive and helpful, when needed.

Great App!

It allows me to pic out individual frames so easily. Love this App.

eadybob (United States)

Works well.

Had an issue in the beginning but tech support helped me resolve. This is great!!!

Cain Images (United States)

Perfect

Exactly what I was looking for!!! Very easy and simple to use

Lilyjoy92 (Australia)

I’m old and I think it’s easy lol

Needed a way to extract quality images from videos and Stills is just what I needed. It’s great for monetized FB pages, they still pay well for photos. Highly recommend!

Finally!!

Totally worth paying for. I used to use SnapStill, but it stopped working for me, and ever since then I’ve been looking for a replacement. Finally decided to buy this hoping for the best, and I’m so glad I did. Excellent quality, no nonsense, just works.

Highly Recommend It🔥

The quality is INCREDIBLE, the app is simple and elegant.

好用

但是导出的JPG有压缩，可以支持导出PNG等无损格式吗？

朴金范范 (China mainland)

Worth every penny

I needed a still pic of my dog but all I had was a poorly taken video. After hours of frustration trying other 'free' apps, I decided to buy this one. In less than 5 minutes I got the still shot needed. I’m so impressed with the quality and how user friendly it is. Worth every penny!

Tip: Tap on picture to move one frame forward

At first, I was disappointed thinking the slider doesn’t give a precise frame selection, but finally figured out that I can do that by tapping the picture. Thanks for making this app. Functionality is simple and enough. Lastly, one time purchase is the best.

Strawberry Lemona (United States)

Finally, a free app that does exactly what it says. It’s gonna do without obligation.

I want to thank the developer of this app personally and tell you how much it means to have a no nonsense app like this in the App Store. And it works the functionality is fantastic. Thank you for all that you do.
