Great App, but... Mac : (
10 hours learning the tools and tricks I needed. 6 hours working on my first project. Then lost links to media and there was no way to recover any of them, even though I knew exactly where the original files were located. I blame Mac OS, since I have new problems with other apps that used work fine.

0 Issues, 100% stability
Been using it for 3 years, no stability or technical issues ever. Coming from final cut and premier the workflow has a few things to learn, but once I got the hang of it this is some pretty powerful stuff that mac silicon native. Still rocking the free version...there is nothing close to this software. I have much more to learn with this software and looking forward to being better at color grading.

An impossible tool to work with
My biggest beef with DaVinci is the fact markers don't stay in place and everything's too sensitive. It's almost as if it was built for iPad and just ported without any afterthought to here. I've had to give up multiple times on a project getting bent compltely out of whack. Add the fact that some of the video tracks have such a hard time working independently, the fact they kept pulling on each other, makes no sense. Sure, you wanna slap a few videos together, it'll work, but anymore than that-- precise cuts, multiple short clips, lotta footage? It just can't!

Video FX Crashing
Hoping BlackMagic can remedy this. Some of the updates are a great and welcomed step up from Resolve 16, but each time I try to select something from the video fx, it crashes. Lost an entire project I didn't save. On me for not saving, I know... but still. I loved 16 and was considering buying the full version, but I'm naturally apprehensive about it now. After all, crashing was the reason I left Premiere and migrated this way. (btw, running a 2019 MBP 16, i9 2.4ghz 8-core, 32gb ram, 2tb SSD, AMD Radeon Pro 5500m 8gb. Shouldn't be having these issues.) Come through for us BM!

awesome
I recently downloaded it on my new Mac. It did not crash. I watched a couple of videos on You Tube and felt confident that I could use it. I think its biggest strength is the special effects. It does prompt you to upgrade but that is not a negative, after all the creators spent money, sweat and effort into it. I may upgrade once I become an expert but I really liked it.

2 years ago, Really good app that I like
Well it is a good app, but with downsides
First, it is a good app for editing and every need for me to edit in my life, but still it is incrasingly unstable almost every day in shuts down, and the MOST TERRIBLE PART is that when. you close it and want to end the part, you need to reload everything, every file and sometimes, you need to replace other files that make it a bad timewaster, bit still a free app that I use everyday, I recomend, bit be aware of its downsides

Amazing!
Seriously... want to learn how to edit...on professional software? - use Resolve! Do you know how to edit, but want to harness the power of color correction? - use Resolve! Want some kind of a DAW to do audio mixing/repair/mastering - use Resolve! Need a snappy tool to manage video files and convert/export lots of vids to the web, for broadcast, etc - with pro specs? - use Resolve! The only tool that Resolve does not adquately feature and and ecplise Adobe with is something solid on motion graphics....Fusion is a great compositor with more powerful tools than AE, but it really isn't as accessible as AE in terms of Motion Design. That said..... Resolve = $0 Adobe CC = $65/mo or $780/year (reg price) The future? - use Resolve!

Don't waste your time or money.
Who creates an overly complicated app and then doesn't tell you how it works? Also, who promotes an app without telling you they want to charge you $299 after one use (that was lousy at that). I would pay them a dime after the deception of not telling anyone you only get one use of this product before they expect money. Especially since the product is not as good as Final Cut.

this is ok
This works exactly like final cut basically. I've been using Imovie to edit videos forever because I cant spend $300 on final cut. I really like it other than the fact it took me forever to figure out how resize/move a image. I think this is great app if you are a little advanced in editing and you don't have $300 to spend on final cut. If you have no idea how to edit you may want to start with Imovie.

Could be 5 stars...
This is an amazing app, but one glitch makes it extremely frustrating to use: Every single time I open the app, some or all of my media is offline and I have to spend forever relinking everyting again, and sometimes that linking doesn't work so I have to go and rebuild those clips. I hope I can find a way to fix this glitch, because I love the program, but this problem is too prohibitive for me to keep using the app.

FANTATIC
This is a fantistic piece of software!! It's perfect for those who want to get into video editing without paying monthly in Adobe. I love how it gives the option to upgrade later but does not constantly bembard or hold back necessary items to do so.

Version 17
I have been using 16 and now 17 since the app updated (I can't remember when). I think this is a great program. I have had no crashes and 0 problems. It is very powerful. Not for the novice. I have a 2017 iMac with 16gb of ram.

app issues
since updating to 17.1 the program has been acting up, crashing for no reason, not saving properly, and rewriting over all of my footage. I had to turn in an assignment late because of this program. I'm really disappointed because it was working just fine before the update. Please fix these issues

just keeps crashing
like everyone has said, it just keeps crashing. I downloaded it hoping it would be fine since my edita are relatively low-energy, but it has come to a point where it crashes after almost every little edit I make. I've learned to save, but it's very annoying and impossible to wrok with. It's really such a shame, I quite enjoyed the features.

App keeps crashing and lagging
As far the cool effects and great stuff from this editing software, When ever I play something in slow motion, it lags and freezes my whole computer, it also crashes for no such reason when I add a audio effect to it and DOESN'T SAVE

I'm sorry...but trash
This software has so much potential. I'm sure the paid version is spectacular. However the free version continuously crashes. And when it doesn't crash, it'll prompt you to buy the paid version. I've seen plenty videos and it looks spectacular, but I can't keep it open long enough to do anything with it.

Buy it from Da Vinci directly, not Apple
The verison Apple offers both the free version and the studio version, crash and have problems regularly. This color cool and editor is the most powerful system currently, but buy it at the Da Vinci website to get a more stable software. For some reason, the version Apple sells is not reliable.

Great tools, awful execution
I have to relink my files EVERY time I start the software. And lately I havent been able to export anything. It starts with 14 fps and it drops to 0 fps after a while and crashes. Cant export anything ever. So frustrating. No wonder it's free. I wouldnt spend $299 if that's how the paid version is.

Trash!
Just spent about an hour editing a long video with title slides and transitions, only for the app to crash. Then I found out it's not set to auto-save by default and had to find that in the settings. Spent another hour re-doing all the title slides and transitions I lost, and now that I'm just about done editing, the app crashes every time I try and do ANYTHING. This app is a WASTE OF TIME!

Can't get any file to open
Downloaded the free version to see if i liked it because the pro version has some cool features. Glad I didn't pay anything for this because I can't get any file to open. I tried mov, mp4, avi, mpg and on and on. Just kept telling me that it was an invalid file type. Waste of time.

Not "Free"
While the power & features of this app seems substantial, I could't do much without paying 3-digit $$$ to activate them. An "In-app purchase notice" might have been warrented. Now I wonder just how much else is hidden from the user.
