      Hey, thanks a lot for the update. I been working with CapCut lately, but I don't like the fact that the audio lags a lot while editing, and I'm not even sure if the audio traces shown in the audio track are real. Anyway it's not synchronized. How's it in VN, is it better than in CapCut?

    Hello. Im just now starting out. Im mainly recording RC cars and my guitar playing and was thinking about using VN. I'll be making videos probably no more than 15 minutes long before editing and they won't need much editing. Im not worried about crazy affects. Just easy, good looking, good sounding videos. Would like it to be as user friendly as possible. Considering what i will be recording what do you think? Also, Is there a background noise removal on VN and can I upload music from Epidemic Sound to VN. Is there a better music app I could use other than Epidemic? Thank you for your time.

    VN editor was good until the update.
    After the update, it lags on uploading videos (making you think it doesn’t work) and it changes images on uploaded images (changes brightness, saturation, contrast, etc).
    So bummed. It used to work.

    I don't edit on my phone, but will give VN a try. My videos don't have many effects. I have been using the Magix video editor for years, but it is slowing my laptop and uses up a lot of space plus their customer service is patchy, so VN on my laptop is definitely something I want to try. Thanks for sharing.

    My question is. When download to UA-cam do you get 4k quality or like the one I'm using now. It says 4k. But you can clearly tell the difference. I would love to get the same quality no matter if I use the cellphone app or laptop. Right now I have to take the Sim card out of my drone put it in my laptop and post it to UA-cam. 4k is beautiful. But not the same quality when using app. Hopefully this app gives me the same quality

      The problem with capcut is that we can't edit based on the sound waves as you suggest in other videos. Seeing the dead space in the sound makes it really fast and easy to edit that's missing in capcut, and in most editors to be honest. The only one that has that feature is vllo. But it misses most of the fancy stuff. So I usually use 2 apps. Fast edit in vllo and then for titles, captions amd text in capcut. It's a little annoying.

Also I put a losd of captions through the video & seemed to have to reset everything relating to the text EVERY TIME!!!
