Star Wars Crawl Creator App Reviews

Only certain letters work in the title

I have been trying to make an intro but I have found that the letters Z & V do not work. AND it limits you to how many characters you can put in the title......

Looks like it would be great, BUT...

Cant edit text. The text field displays in a locked portrait mode and the keyboard displays in landscape....if Id fix this I think it would be great!

Great potential it has, but buggy it is!

This app does what it says - it allows the user to create a good reproduction of the opening title crawl from the Star Wars films. That being said, there are bugs. You MUST open the app in portrait orientation, or your keyboard will be rotated perpendicular to the view of the app. Its very picky about how the text is formatted, and will introduce all sorts of strange artifacts/formatting if it doesnt like what youve done. All in all, the app has a "not quite finished" feel to it that makes the asking price seem a bit steep. I paid the full $4.99 asking price and I feel like I spent too much for what I got. That being said, when you work around the bugs, the creator of this program has done a lot of nice things here. If the bugs were fixed, this would be a four or five star app without question.

Cool but needs LOTS of work

This app is cool and very similar to the actual crawl in the movie. However, this app has so many errors that needs to be fixed. For the title, every time you type a word with the letter s, it will replace the s with "Star Wars". So annoying! Plus, the screen is horizontal but you have to type vertically and you cant really see what youre typing. This app would be great if these issues get fixed. Definitely not worth $4.99 at the moment. Save your money.

Good App.. Needs Minor work.

I love the app! Here is what I think needs to be fixed. The title should have more than 8 letters Better background Better saving feature. Last: Have the Crawl just like the speed in the movie. Its annoying. The rest is awesome. Nice Job!!!!!!

works graet on my iPhone5

It works graet for me. No bugs. Use this every day.

Cant save in camera roll

This used to be one of my favorite apps. Worked perfectly before the update. Please fix and I will give 5 stars. Thanks!

Excellent Concept, Substandard Exection.

I will be very frank in this review—when I first saw that the programmer of this app was “bad”, I had no idea of how bad until I had downloaded it from this site for $4.99! Really! Where did he learn to program? Here are the current flaws of this program: the inability to rotate along with the IPad screen whenever it can, clearly it mentioned the keyboard issue, the main title zooms out too fast, it doesn’t cue the music the instant the title appears, and I also believe it necessary to point out the crawl does not fade out at a certain point until it is completely over. My advice: read from programming books and ask other programmers how to do it, watch the films *again* to observe and record *exactly* how it is to be done. Also, I’d like to bring up that he should have a space above the episode title that says “Episode” blank. It can be removed if the crawl is to be a standalone story. Whenever the video plays, it plays upside down on my device for no apparent reason, this error must be corrected. And lastly, perhaps if a standard version of the “Star Wars” title were included if it were to be an “official” Star Wars story (but it isnt really), it would be much easier on users. The one I made is not so good. Anyway, that it is all I have to say. I don’t really have any other creative criticism for the developer, but I believe this list should prove to a challenge to overcome. I apologize if I have sounded rude here.

Great App, but needs bug fixes

Noticed two bugs so far. 1) If you type the letter O in the Logo, it will appear as the letter N 2) If you type the letter S in the Episode Title, itll convert it too Star Wars

Not working

This app. Has been updating memory for ten minutes...cant use it.....not worth the money........

keyboard comes up on side

i dont know what happened, it was awesome but now the keyboard come up on the side, blocking out they typing area. please fix

Awesome

Very nice app

iOS 7 ruined this app

DO NOT BUY This app was awesome but the iOS 7 update made the sizing and placement of the words in it so far off the screen that it does not work anymore. Wait until they fix this to buy the app.

Add something in there

In the next update could you please add the 20th century fox logo with the lucasflim logo please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Too many bugs

Cant save worth out music. Cant add my music due to DRM rights. Cant tweet or Facebook it. Worthless !

Great idea but crap

Does not display right. To add Star Wars music you have to upgrade to ITunes plus and rebuy music, its a Trap!

Disappointed

Ive tried several times to create my own crawl to no avail, either the resolution is too large for my screen or moved too fast. Disappointed in this app!

Some Confusion…

Its a great app, and Ive only got one issue; whenever I try to use a song for the third or forth time, it says the song is protected by some iTunes thingy. Otherwise, great crawler creator!

Too Many Bugs to be Useful

Most of the time when I try to use a song, it tells me its locked by DRM, even when I KNOW FOR A FACT that I ripped the song into iTunes myself. When it does accept my music selection, it never seems to actually complete the import. It cant switch orientations automatically, and the typing speed when youre searching for a piece of music its not going to let you use is atrociously slow. I had hoped the paid version would be better quality than the free version. I was wrong.

Huge disappointment

This program looks promising. It has so many bugs it is completely worthless. Even if you can get it to have all the text the way you want it, it will not scroll and look good. Also, I have tried and tried and tried to input music but have never been able. In the few miracles where it doesnt tell me that I am unable to use the song, it tells me "importing song" song, but never progresses to actually importing the song. This was a big waste of five dollars, and until the programmers of this app, get around to doing an update that actually makes this work, they are guilty of being crooks and stealing our money. What a huge letdown!
