These applications will help you to edit both short videos and even amateur films.
1.iMovie
Apple's proprietary video editor, which is equally well suited for both beginners and more experienced and demanding users. IMovie has everything you need to edit videos on the go, including easy-to-use editing tools, project templates, filters, as well as transitions, titles and export resolution choices. Moreover, the program is very easy to understand.
2. Splice
An advanced mobile editor that provides the user with tons of editing tools. You can adjust colors, choose aspect ratios, adjust video speed, crop sections, apply filters, adjust transitions, save the result in various resolutions, including 4K, and much more. All of these features are available for free. And with a subscription, you get even more options, including access to a library of sounds.
3. Clips
Another Apple video editor, but much simpler. Clips is reminiscent of the Instagram Stories capture menu and is designed to create short clips for social media. The application allows you to compose videos and photos into bright videos with the addition of animated titles, beautiful effects and music, as well as insert stickers with characters from popular cartoons.
4. Quik
The well-known company GoPro is developing this application. With Quik, you can quickly assemble a short, dynamic video from video, photo and audio files. First, decide on a clip template and load the required sources into it. After that, the program will allow you to customize the result: crop unnecessary fragments, change the aspect ratio, add titles, apply filters, and so on. The resulting clip can be exported to the selected social network.

5. InShot
This program combines the functions of a photo and video editor, so before adding pictures to a movie, you can retouch them. In addition, the application has templates for creating publications on various social networks: from Instagram stories to YouTube videos. Choose the right blank - and the video will look optimal on your site.
The editor contains all the basic functions: cut and glue fragments, insert text, control speed, and so on. The free version displays ads and adds the InShot logo to the video. But before each save it can be removed.
6. Videoleap
Quite a powerful video editor with interesting original features. Videoleap lets you compose videos and snapshots by shuffling them in the timeline with simple swipes of your finger. Enjoy a huge arsenal of different effects, filters, transitions and settings. Some of them are only available as a subscription, but the free version has a lot to choose from.
Special attention should be paid to the ability to superimpose photos or other videos on the video sequence. In this way, you can mix multiple images to create stylish video collages.
