Save a clip as its own video

  • Phone app only

Pick the best part of a video, save it as a clip, and keep it as a new video if you want.

The START and END handles, SET AS CLIP, and the Save the clip as a video? sheet

Steps

  1. Open a video from your phone in a move or a set, and tap EDIT.
  2. Drag the handles on the filmstrip to the part you want.
  3. Or move to a frame and tap START, then move on and tap END.
  4. Tap SET AS CLIP. The Start point window opens with the times filled in.
  5. Give the clip a name if you like, and tap SAVE.
  6. Save the clip as a video? opens. Choose one option (see below).

The app shows Clip saved and the times. The clip now sits under its video and plays only that part.

Keep it as a video

A clip saved as its own video keeps playing even if you delete the original.

  • Save as copy: adds the clip as a new video on the same move or set. The original stays.
  • Save to…: adds the clip as a new video on another move or set, or on a New move.
  • Replace original: keeps only the clip and deletes the rest of the video. You can use it only when the video has no other clips or start points.
  • NOT NOW: keeps the clip as a mark on the video, with no new file.

Fix a mistake

  • Tap undo or redo. They work while the video is open.
  • Hold START to put it back to 0:00. Hold END to clear it.
  • Close with changes you didn't save, and Discard changes? asks first. Tap KEEP EDITING or DISCARD.

How many clips

Free: 1 saved clip per video. When a video has it, the button shows 1 of 1 on this video. Tapping it opens the plans sheet. Premium saves every clip you cut. Start points with no end never count, and changing a clip you already saved is always free. See plans and pricing.
