“5 stars for me because it can generate beautiful videos from images. you can choose how many seconds base on free credits. thank you so much for this app, now i can generate videos again for free. Additional 5 stars 🤩🤩”
“After the latest update, I can no longer edit the images I generated in the app, nor can I convert them to videos. These were the most important features and removing them is very frustrating. If these are now only for paid users, at least provide a limited free option or clear instructions. Please restore these functionalities or fix the issue. Thank you”
“wan 2.7 service is failing constantly.. it take s20 minutes to generate a video yet it fails most of time. Needed to improve the application servers”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing AI video generator! Please add 4K video support, improve video quality (some videos look blurry), make the audio more realistic, and increase the maximum video length to 1 minute. Also, when generating 5 characters, faces sometimes get duplicated. Please keep every character unique and add support for up to 10 characters in a single scene. Great app with huge potential!”

“Wan app before credit 30 and if you hasnt use it .It's still there but now credit become 10 and not stay until tommorow and the video to generate was 15 so how can we still make a video to generate ? maybe finding another app to edit videos was best thing to do.”
“This is the most underrated app. I'm not sure why it is just with 4 stars. Major apps like Filmora, Pixverse, Kling AI, etc, will charge you convert the image into video. Here in "Wan," it populates the most quality video with audio for free. I am reviewing after using various apps and using this one for a week. Trust me guys, it is worth it for the beginners. I hope paid version could bring in lot more.”
“Where has this app been all this time? I’ve been paying every month for video-making images and videos, but this app is honestly better than those paid versions. It has better quality and much smoother motion sensing/animation.”

“We are actually living in crazy times, this is like straight up magic. I was surprised just how well this works on my rtx 5070. Also, the fact that it can create ANY video you want without using the internet, is still surreal to me.”
