Trim

Upload a clip, set in and out points, and download the trimmed file. No timeline needed.

Trim is the quickest way to cut a video down. Drop a file in, drag the in and out handles, and export.

Keep or delete

The range you select can mean one of two things:

  • Keep selected: everything outside the range is removed. Preview playback stops at the out point and returns to the in point.
  • Remove selected: the range is cut out and the two sides are joined. Preview playback skips the selected range. Leave some video outside the range to enable export.

Drag the handles or enter exact times in In and Out. You can also focus a handle and use Left or Right to move it by 0.1 seconds, or Home and End to move it to its allowed boundary.

Press Space to play or pause when focus is outside a field, button, slider, or dialog. On a phone, open Edit to reach the settings.

Choose a format and press Export clip. When the export is ready, edit the file name and download it. Edit again returns to the clip on desktop; close the result sheet on a phone. Use Replace video to start with another source.

Trim always re-encodes

It doesn't stream-copy. Re-encoding means the cut lands on the exact frame you picked rather than the nearest keyframe, and it normalizes awkward sources such as iPhone HEVC and 10-bit footage down to plain H.264 that plays everywhere.
