Apple's Final Cut Pro Backlash

As per a news story by PetaPixel, a total of one hundred Final Cut Pro editors from film and TV production previously signed an open letter asking Apple to add more features to its video editing app.

Moreover, its big-production users also asked the tech firm to support third-party apps, which they say has been the standard for other software catering to this level of content editing.

On top of these requests, the open letter also raised the idea of expanding the current number of Final Cut Pro editors who will train other users.

To be fair, the signatories, which include folks from hit shows like Bridgerton, also praised the video editing software of Apple, according to a recent report by Tech Radar.

The letter to Cook also boldly stated that Final Cut Pro is "the biggest leap forward in editing technology since the move to digital."
