## What is AppTrailer?

A real video editor you buy once. No subscription, no watermark, no cloud.

Everything on a timeline you can see, with a preview that updates as you edit. And because it was born making App Previews, it exports in the exact sizes Apple asks for.

Hi, I'm an indie developer. I built this for myself and use it every day. One purchase and it's yours. Got a feature idea? Email me.

EDIT BY TALKING
Nobody else does this. Talk over your footage and Auto Cut keeps every stretch of speech and drops every pause. It is the edit you would have made by hand, in seconds. Then Clean the voice runs a studio chain over it: EQ, levelling, de-esser and limiter.

13 AI VOICES, BUILT IN
Rather not record? Write your Story and pick a voice: 7 American, 3 British, 3 Brazilian Portuguese. They ship inside the app and work in airplane mode. No account, no credits. Set tone, body and expression.

THE TIMELINE
In and Out, duration and speed per cut, no render to wait for. Reorder, duplicate, reverse, mirror, freeze the last frame, stabilize a shaky shot, rescue a dark one. Keyframe the framing, or let Spotlight zoom in.

EFFECTS THAT STOP THE SCROLL
Take On Me redraws your contour frame by frame, out of the a-ha video. Draw Effect draws the whole shot in pencil on paper. Neon keeps only the outline, glowing like a sign. VHS puts it on tape and plays it back on a tube TV. Plus New Retro, classic filters and Reveal. They stack.

TEXT, MUSIC AND SOUND
One phrase per cut, with 7 entrance animations. Free music (OpenGameArt CC0) and sound effects (Kenney, Mixkit), or bring your own. Your images can land on the beat.

PHOTOS ONLY? SLIDESHOW
Pick a handful and the sequence comes out finished: movement on each, your transitions, every change on the beat.

FOR THE APP STORE
Your App Preview in the exact size App Store Connect accepts. No rework, no rejected upload.

SCREENSHOT EDITOR INSIDE
Scrub to the right frame and capture it. The canvas is already store size. Text, stickers, arrows, subject cutout, official Apple device frames (iPhone 17, iPad Pro with the Pencil) and your background. Replicate the art across the set, then export one set per language, translated on device.

EVERY FORMAT
App Store, TikTok, Reels, Stories, Shorts, Instagram feed and YouTube. Duplicate into another format and the text and framing come along.

BACKUP
Your projects mirrored to Files or iCloud Drive, automatically. Restore anytime.

FAQ

One purchase? Yes. No subscription, no credits, no watermark. Updates included.
Do I need to be a developer? No. It is a video editor first. The App Store tools are there when you need them.
Does anything leave my device? No. Editing, effects, voices and export all run on your iPhone or iPad.

Buy it once. Edit everything.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.7.1 — 2026-10-03

Effects now belong to the cut.

FX, Filter, Adjustments, Voice FX and Reveal apply to the cut you selected. Select several cuts and they apply to all of them at once: a filter on three cuts, the neon on one, the rest clean.

Marking several cuts: drag on the strip above the thumbnails, or tap a cut with a finger resting on the screen (Shift on the Mac) to take everything in between, Command to add one at a time, Command A to take them all.

Drag one cut of the group and the whole group travels with it, in the order they are in. The transition panel works on the group too: the type and the length go on every selected cut.

On/off effect, in the cut's options, has one switch per effect the cut has, named after it: Neon, VHS, Vintage, Adjustments, Trailer, Reveal. Turning it off keeps the setting and only takes the effect out of that cut.

The effect now covers the whole frame. Shrink the video inside the canvas and the filter, the vignette, the drawn line and the Reveal line take the leftovers and the background too, instead of staying locked inside the video's rectangle.

Also fixed: a project now opens at the file's own size no matter how you import it, a recording on devices before the M1 keeps its shape, a project saved by an older version comes back whole after an update, and the App Store screenshots setting stays the way you left it.

Maximum effort!

### 1.7 — 2026-10-02

TRAILER VOICES
Nine new AI voices, and a Trailer effect that turns any of them into a movie
announcer: chest, presence and a big discreet room. Twenty-two voices in all.

STORY IN A TAP
Describe your app and the length you want, and the Story writes itself — then
the AI voice reads it. Needs Apple Intelligence.

THREE NEW EFFECTS
Hell, Heaven and Spectro: fire from below, light from above, and a spectral
version of whoever is on screen. Every effect now has Image, the slider that
brings your video back on top of the effect.

VOICE FX
Studio chain for your voice: body, presence, air, a Trailer preset and more.
It applies to the whole video, narration and cuts alike, and any single cut can
opt out.

REMOVE BACKGROUND, FINALLY CLEAN
That thin line of leftover green around your subject has a slider of its own
now — Fringe. The outline of a person is half background, half person, and
Fringe dries that edge and pulls the color out of the whole scene. You can also
pinch the frame to zoom in while you pick the color, and the tolerance repaints
as you drag instead of after you let go.

IMPORT
Video or image, from the Library, from Files or pasted: each one comes in as a
cut. The Import button on the toolbar is the way in.

ALSO
The video's own sound got a volume slider, under the music. On the Mac, export
goes straight to the Finder save panel, and ⌘S / ⌘⇧S save and export.

FIXED
Undo now reaches the sliders it used to miss. An image imported into an empty
project shows up as a cut. Effects redraw right away, anywhere in the video.
A heavy effect prepares in the background with a progress bar instead of
freezing the preview.

Maximum effort!

### 1.6 — 2026-09-10

Your projects, safe. Your voice, clean. Your photos, edited for you.

BACKUP OF YOUR PROJECTS
Your projects live inside the app, so deleting it takes them along. Now you pick a folder in Files or iCloud Drive and every project is kept out there too. Deleted the app, or got a new iPad? Restore and they are all back. It runs on its own when you leave the app, and copies only what changed, so it stays quick even on a project full of video.

STUDIO VOICE
Clean the voice is a full studio chain now: EQ, levelling, de-esser and limiter. And it no longer stops at your voice-over. The voice recorded inside the video gets the same treatment, so the phone in your hand starts sounding like a microphone in a booth. A video with nobody talking is left alone.

SLIDESHOW
Pick a handful of photos and the app builds the whole sequence: one image per cut, movement on each one, and the transition you chose in between. With music in the project, every change lands on the beat. It comes out finished and already playing, not a pile of cuts for you to fix.

AUTO CUT ON THE VOICE
It listens to you. Every stretch of speech becomes a cut, every pause between them goes out, and what you get back is the jump cut edit you would have made by hand, in seconds. Tell it which language you speak and it does the rest.

Also new:

VHS, the fifth effect in FX, and it is not a green filter. The shot is recorded on tape and played back on a tube TV: lines come in late and the picture wobbles, color smears off every edge, the head loses the track and a band of torn picture climbs the screen. It sits on top of the other effects, so a drawing underneath plays on the old TV too.
Line width, a new ruler in Take On Me, Draw Effect and Neon. Strength was always one thing and width came along for the ride, so a hairline was only possible by losing the line. Two rulers now, and halfway is exactly the calibration you already had.
In Neon, Glow replaced Contour: it is how much the sign lights up, the halo and the body of light inside it.
The robot puts your images on the beat, even the ones already on the timeline: each photo holds a whole number of beats and the change falls on the beat.
Drag a video onto the gallery and the project is born at the file's own size, with the video already in it. Several at once: the first sets the format, the rest come in as cuts.
Midtones, the eighth adjustment: rescue a dark video while black stays black and white stays white. Auto Adjust was rebuilt around it and does not burn the picture anymore.
Improve, in Phrases and in Story: Apple Intelligence rewrites, proofreads or summarizes what you wrote.
The gallery got real drag and drop: drop between cards to reorder, on a card to stack.
Fixes: exported video no longer comes out washed, the movement of the images does not jolt at every transition, and a cut whose file went missing no longer takes the app down.

Maximum effort!

### 1.5 — 2026-08-19

This one is about the look.

Three effects to draw over your video, and they stack:

Take On Me: the contour redrawn frame by frame, straight from the a-ha video. New Scribbles slider included.
Draw Effect: the whole shot synthesized in pencil, stroke by stroke on paper. Runs on the GPU, so exports that took 7 minutes now draw in under 30 seconds.
Neon: only the outline, glowing like a sign, with a Treatment that takes the whole scene into neon colors. Plus paper textures and blend modes behind each cut.
Reveal: a line slides across the cut showing the before on one side and the after on the other. The screenshot editor got its own Reveal too, with a draggable line and another image behind your art.

Also new:

Freeze at end: the cut plays and the last frame holds as long as you choose.
Music Delay: the video opens in silence and the track comes in later, with the fade in.
On iPad and Mac, FX, Adjust, Reveal and Music are movable windows now: drag the handle and park them anywhere.
Screenshots: official Apple bezels (iPad Pro 13 inch with the Pencil), a dashed outline showing what you tapped, and a menu on each thumb with Change image from the camera roll or Files.
The robot's Loop toggle is reversible: turn it off and the video goes back to how it was. Exact duration adjusts finer, scaling speeds or trims proportionally across all cuts.
Fixes: text outline spikes on sharp corners, shadow with the band on, music fade out in the exported video, and a crash deleting a cut from its own settings.
Maximum effort!

### 1.4 — 2026-08-06

This is a "dogfooding" app, so don't worry—I'm using it constantly and keeping an eye out for bugs!

The game changer: your trailer can TALK now.

Give your app a voice. Hold REC and narrate right over the preview in your own voice, or let an AI voice read your script for you. All on device, no internet, in many languages.

Best part: the captions chase the voice, word by word. No more subtitles hanging in silence. Need it to fit in 30 seconds? Drag the block or type a duration and the AI speeds up or slows down to land it, no chipmunk voice.

And now your framing moves too.

Turn Animate on and pinch or drag the preview. Every framing you set becomes a purple diamond on the filmstrip, and the cut travels between them: a slow push in, a pan across the screen, a snap onto the detail that matters. Tap a diamond to cycle its curve, drag it to retime, copy a move from one cut and paste it into another.

Also new:

Trim: park the playhead, split a cut in two. Your phrase, Spotlight, SFX and keyframes all follow to the side they belong to.
The playhead snaps onto keyframes, and a new button drops one exactly where it sits.
Story bar: no voice-over? Drag the block to say where your text runs and how fast it goes.
Free movement: zoom up to 8x and pan all the way to the edges.
Voice blocks: drag a box over many and move them as one.
Music that breathes: no more pumping between phrases.
Loop the preview: hit play and let it run while you tweak.
Instant import: a 3-minute video lands in seconds.
Smarter music fit: it picks the right beats and cuts clean.
Reset button to start your narration fresh in one tap.
Your export comes out named after the project.

Record. Narrate. Move it. Ship.
