FREE APP Today: Videocraft

Today is your chance to download a free video editor! If iMovie is too expensive, Videocraft might be a good alternative. It is both available for iPhone and iPad. I have not reviewed this app yet as I am only sharing it while it is for free. I have downloaded the app also and will try it out later. Once the promo ends, the price will revert back to $1.99
