How to edit videos on an iPhone?

Tap the Plus button at the very bottom and select the Video option. Specify the aspect ratio you need, for example, square for an Instagram post or vertical for Instagram Stories. When you’ve chosen the aspect ratio, tap OK.

On the new screen, select one or more videos and tap Start editing. The footage will be added to the Timeline.

You can split your video into multiple parts and delete unwanted segments. Find the place where you want to make your first cut by scrolling the Timeline and tap the Scissors icon.

To delete the part of the video before or after the cut, swipe down on the corresponding part.

To cut out a segment in the middle of the video, make a second cut and swipe down on the unwanted part between the cuts.

To add a filter to your video, tap Filter on the toolbar. On the new screen, scroll and choose the filter that best suits your needs.

You can also adjust the brightness, saturation, and sharpness of your footage by hand. To do this, go the Adjustments tab and select the appropriate option at the bottom of the screen. Drag the slider to adjust the intensity of the effect. When you’re satisfied, tap Apply.

To add music, tap Audio on the toolbar. In the new screen, scroll the Timeline to place the vertical marker where you want the music to start and tap the Plus icon.

You can add music from your iTunes library or explore our themed playlists of free tracks. Tap a song to play it without adding to the video. When you’ve found the right one, tap Select and wait for the track to be added.

If the song lasts longer than your video, you can cut the song the same way as you cut a video. To do this, locate the place where you want the music to end and tap the Scissors icon. Then just swipe down on the unwanted part.

To adjust the volume of the music or the video, drag the appropriate slider. When everything is ready, tap Apply.

Tap the Save icon in the top right corner of the screen. On the next screen, tap Save and wait until the video is saved on your iPhone. To share your creation directly from the app, tap Share.
