Video tools
A real editor and a drawer of single-purpose tools, built on hardware encoding so a 4K clip is handled by your phone, not by a server.
The video editor has a multi-track timeline with trim, split, reorder, speed, colour, 14 transitions, 17 filters, 17 effects, text and sticker layers, subtitles, picture-in-picture, green screen, music and voice-over, and exports MP4 at up to 4K. Around it sit 23 tools that each do one thing well, from trimming without re-encoding to fitting a video under an exact file size.
Every tool runs on your device with iEdit's own build of FFmpeg and your phone's hardware encoder, producing H.264 or HEVC video with AAC audio. Jobs show their progress, can be cancelled, keep running when you switch apps and send a notification when they are done. Where a job can be done without re-encoding, iEdit does it that way and tells you.

Questions about Video in iEdit
Does iEdit re-encode videos when trimming or splitting?
No. Trimming, splitting and looping copy the video data without re-encoding, so quality is untouched. The cut starts at the nearest keyframe, and iEdit shows you when the start has moved to one.
Can iEdit export 4K video?
Yes. The editor exports at 720p, 1080p or 4K at 24, 30 or 60 frames per second, in H.264 or HEVC. 4K is offered when the first clip is 4K or the project is made of photos. The resize tool goes up to 2160p.
Are the video tools free?
Yes. All 24 video tools, including the editor, are free, and results are saved to My files. Sharing a video or saving it to your photo library is part of iEdit Premium, an optional monthly subscription with a 3-day free trial.
