Merge videos into one clip on your phone
iEdit joins 2 to 50 videos into a single file on your iPhone, iPad or Android phone. Drag the clips into order and tap Merge; when the clips share the same format they are copied without re-encoding, otherwise iEdit re-encodes them to match. The result is saved to My files.
Overview
Choose between 2 and 50 videos from your device or My files, drag them into the order you want and tap Merge. If every clip has the same resolution, codec and frame rate, which is the usual case for videos shot on the same phone, iEdit stitches the streams together without re-encoding. Nothing is decoded, so every frame is exactly as it was recorded and the join is quick even with many clips.
When the clips differ, iEdit re-encodes them into one consistent video using the phone's hardware encoder. The largest frame size wins, and clips with another shape are placed on black bars rather than stretched. The highest frame rate among the clips is used, up to 60 fps, and clips without sound receive a silent track so the audio stays in sync. Location, device and date metadata are kept. The job shows its progress, can be cancelled, and keeps running in the background with a notification when done.
Merging is how a day of short clips becomes one video to send, how a screen recording in two takes becomes one tutorial, and how a series of status posts turns back into the full story. If you need transitions, text or music between the clips, the video editor is the next step; Merge is the quick route when you just want them end to end. It all happens on your device, with no upload and no account needed.

Frequently asked questions
What happens when I merge videos with different resolutions?
iEdit re-encodes them into one video at the largest frame size among the clips. Clips with a different shape are placed on black bars instead of being stretched, the highest frame rate up to 60 fps is used, and clips without audio get a silent track so the sound stays aligned.
Is merging videos free in iEdit?
Yes. You can merge up to 50 clips and save the result to My files without paying. Sharing the merged video or saving it to your photo library is part of iEdit Premium, an optional monthly subscription with a 3-day free trial.
Are my clips uploaded to merge them?
No. Joining and, when needed, re-encoding happen on your iPhone, iPad or Android device with its own hardware encoder. iEdit uploads nothing, needs no account, works offline, and leaves your original clips untouched. The merged file is saved to My files.
