Sora by OpenAI 13+

simply out of this world things you can do (if you don’t bump into one of the many restrictions) but you have no ability to ask the model why it made what it did… nor to truly work in an iterative fashion… so it’s all one-shot attempts and you have to pray it comes out the way you want or you’ve dented your tiny daily creation budget

and the algorithm for discovery is horrendous… you’d think one of the most intelligent companies would have created a nearly perfect algorithm… but no, barely any videos get distributed to others (as there’s barely any proper metadata comprehension by the system, so it mostly pulls from user descriptions which are barebones) and there’s no way to get around that design error right now (no boosting options etc)

overall a great app… with a lot of room for improvement

As a dedicated Sora user, I’ve found the platform to be an extraordinary tool for bringing creative ideas to life often those that feel impossible to visualize elsewhere. Sora gives that creativity in a way a few apps can bring and I believe it holds true potential for growth and development. That said, I’d like to offer some feedback from my experience. As a UI/UX designer, I’ve noticed that certain settings specifically those related to video length and orientation (landscape vs. portrait) can be difficult for users to locate and adjust. It took me some time to discover how to modify these options, and I’ve heard similar concerns from other users who found this setting and were surprised that it was on the top of the screen this entire time but they never thought to check it. For future updates, I recommend making these settings more accessible and clearly labeled. Improving their visibility and ease of use would significantly enhance the onboarding experience for new users and streamline workflows for existing ones. Aside from this, I want to say that Sora is by far the most inspiring and powerful creative app I’ve ever used. I’m excited to see how it continues to evolve and unlock its full potential.

This app does so much right but also a lot wrong at the same time. I understand why they can’t let you use characters from other places. But a really cool idea would be if I could create my own character I could save them as a character to use for future videos. I also think they should increase the overall time of how long the videos are. If it was 20 to a minute or two would be a huge improvement. Just don’t be sleazy and make people pay for that. If anything when it comes to monetizing this I would recommend just limiting the amount of drafts you can have that just sit in the folder. If you run out just delete them if not get unlimited space. But I think you should save have as many characters and run length be as long as you need. Just keep the greed with drafts and not with uploads and length time and guarantee this app will be a success.
