Deshake - Video stabilization 4+

Works great

Could use a few more options, but it works for now.
In reply to comment: I would like to crop, resize , and use a draw tool to select the main image or point of reference that would be stabilized.
For example the rocket ship video is shaky , but also as the rocket ascends it rotates. I want the rocket to point straight up always. Another example a video of a bird is shaky , when the bird flys away the camera moves up and down left and right. I want the image of the bird centered always. Im not even going to talk about screen orientation.

Developer Response ,

Hello, thank you for the review! Which options would you like to have in the nearest releases?

Videos look much better

Removing shakiness makes the videos a pleasure to view after they are processed with this app. I’ve been using this product for my home videos, for a long time. It is great to smooth out the shakiness of videos that need it. Easy to import and set the amount of smoothness desired. The algorithms cause the resultant video to be reduced from the edges just a bit, as it optimized removing the jitteriness that was as a result of shooting a video with uneven movement of the camera. This is a typical method. The results are really great. If you had too much movement, you will likely need to reprocess your output with this app to get all the shakiness out. This is a very valuable application.

Pretty good for a $3 app

So I’m of the small group of people who believe that there’s value in quality and I don’t expect an app that handles such a complex task to be free.
So, I was pleasantly surprised to find this $3 gem in the App Store.

It does the job, with some minimal but meaningful customizations and adjustments. The results are very good, not spectacular, but very good indeed. Again, considering the price, it is a very good value.

I encountered a bug while modifying the “focus area” which forced me to restart the app and my work. But it didn’t happen the second time around.

At the end of the day, it stabilized my video perhaps better than what I could have expected, and the output quality was very good, considering that it needs to crop the video to allow for the stabilization.

One suggestion: iOS13 allows us to soft modify the videos. All other apps open the modified version of the video, this one opened the original.
Not the worst thing in my case, but can be annoying if someone spent some time and effort cropping, applying filters and image adjustments, and snipping.
