Core Editing Features

  • Aspect Ratio Adaptations: Switch between 9:16 (Vertical full), 4:5 (Feed post), 1:1 (Square), and 16:9 (Widescreen) with smart fitting.
  • Clip Drawer Precision Trimming:
    • Tap any clip in the bottom tray to open its trim drawer.
    • Slide the yellow edge handles to fine-tune start and end points.
  • Color Grading & Looks: Built-in LUT color profiles are open to everyone. Pro adds three film grain looks (Dusk teal & orange, Mellow warm portraits, Mint fresh greens) and two night looks (Ink deep blacks, Ember preserved lights).
  • Batch Length: Tap the scissors in clip details, switch to All, and choose 0.5s, 1s, or Full to adjust every clip at once.
  • Split Screen: Every clip plays in sync while you edit; tap one to choose which part it plays.
  • Wide Clips: Clip details frame footage the same way as the editor stage, so landscape video is no longer cropped on both sides.
  • Stickers & Subtitles:
    • Date Stickers: Time, date, or date+time stamps with repeat rules (Every Clip, On New Day, or Intervals).
    • Place Stickers: Tag location metadata onto frames (requires location permissions when shooting).
    • Captions: Add notes to the prompt "What were you thinking in this moment?" with custom typography controls.
  • Cover Frame Picker: Select a keyframe across your clips to act as the film's thumbnail.
