## What is Clipolette?

You filmed something long. You need short clips for TikTok, Reels and Shorts. Finding the good parts means scrubbing for hours.

Clipolette does that part for you. Add your recording. It finds the moments worth posting and turns them into vertical 9:16 clips, ready to upload.

Podcasts, interviews, livestreams, sermons, webinars, lessons, gameplay, or one long take on your phone. Anything with talking works — it finds moments by reading what is said.


HOW IT WORKS

1. Add your video from Photos or Files.
2. Tap Find best moments.
3. Your clips appear, best one first. Tap one to open it.
4. Export and post.

One long video becomes a short list of clips.


IT FINDS THE GOOD PARTS

Pick a target length — 15, 30, 60 or 90 seconds. Clipolette reads what is actually said and picks the moments worth cutting. It also hears laughter, applause and cheering, and the moments your voice gets loud.

Every clip tells you why it was picked, with an honest strength rating. If nothing stood out, it says so instead of inventing a favourite.

Runs on your device. No account. Nothing is uploaded.


IT FRAMES ITSELF

Open a clip and it frames itself, centred on the faces it found.

Want it framed differently?

• Crop — re-centre on faces, or run a deeper, slower scan.
• Follow Subject — keeps your subject in frame as they move, and switches to whoever is speaking when two people share the shot. No face on screen? It follows the action, so gameplay stays centred.
• Blur — keeps your whole shot, against a soft blurred background.
• Manual — pan and zoom by hand when you want the final say.

Turn on Safe Zones to see where TikTok, Reels and Shorts buttons sit, before you export.


POLISH IT

• Captions — automatic, word by word, in five ready-made styles, or your own colour and size. Edit any caption by hand, translate them, or fix a word across every caption at once.
• Pauses — cut the dead air between sentences. Captions stay in sync.
• Fillers — cut the "ums" and "uhs" (English, plus French "euh").
• Trim — set the exact start and end of any scene, guided by the waveform.
• Slow motion — half or quarter speed on any scene. That scene plays silent.
• Enhance — sharpen soft, low-resolution footage toward 1080p. It appears when your footage can benefit.


POST KIT

Add captions, then let Clipolette write your packaging: an on-screen hook, a title, a caption, and hashtags. Burn the hook onto the video; paste the rest where you post.


SCENE BY SCENE

Clipolette splits your video into scenes on its own. Keep the ones you want, drop the rest.


PICK UP WHERE YOU LEFT OFF

Projects save on their own. Reopen one and your scenes and clips are right there — no re-scanning.


WALK AWAY WHILE IT WORKS

Switch apps or lock your phone. Scene analysis, moment-finding and exports keep going. Come back when they are done.


WHY CREATORS LIKE IT

• Private by design. No account, nothing sent to us, everything runs on your device.
• Every editing tool is free. No subscription, ever.
• One payment removes the watermark from your exports. Pay once, keep it forever.

Already have a short clip? That works too.


WHAT YOU NEED

Clipolette works on iPhone and iPad with iOS 18 or later.

• Captions need your language's dictation model on the device. Clipolette adds it, or tells you which one to add — your audio never leaves the device. Translation needs that language downloaded too.
• Finding your best moments uses Apple Intelligence, and needs iOS 26 or iPadOS 26 on a device that supports it. It reads speech, so your video needs sound. Post Kit uses it too; elsewhere it still writes one, just more simply.
• Saved projects, smoother slow motion, Enhance, and running while you switch apps need iOS 26 or iPadOS 26.
• Everything else — captions, translation, framing, scene detection, trimming and slow motion — works on iOS 18 and later.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2.8 — 2026-08-19

This update makes it easier to choose a clip.

SEE MORE, SCROLL LESS
• The scene list now fits about three times more scenes on screen, so you can
  find a clip without endless scrolling.

KNOW WHAT A CLIP IS BEFORE YOU TAP IT
• Each suggested clip now shows its opening line, so you can judge the hook
  at a glance.
• The trim view now draws the 9:16 guide too, so your biggest look at the
  footage shows what the vertical crop will keep — and the preview itself is
  much larger.
• Trim times are now labelled "Keeping" and "Scene", so it's clear which
  is which.

A CALMER WAIT
• Progress now tells you which step you're on and roughly how long is left.

SMALL THINGS THAT HELP
• A new app icon that adapts to Light, Dark and tinted Home Screens.
• Home now shows your recent projects first when you come back.
• Post Kit can copy your caption and hashtags together in a single tap.
• Settings now includes Contact Support and Privacy Policy.
• Clearer buttons throughout — "Edit 5:00" now tells you exactly what
  you're about to open, and the way back to your other clips is now
  labelled "Clips".
• On iPad, the caption style picker no longer covers the caption you're
  styling.

ACCESSIBILITY
• Caption text now wraps instead of being cut off at large text sizes.
• Text no longer stops growing at the largest two sizes — the Home screen
  and the editor's playback and tool controls now scale all the way.
• Cleaner, quieter on long lists.

Everything still runs on your device — nothing is uploaded.

### 2.7 — 2026-08-10

• See the vertical crop before you commit
Scenes now show the 9:16 window your clip starts from, so you can see which
part of the frame is kept and which is cropped away.

• Clearer about your privacy
When iOS asks for speech permission, we now explain plainly that your audio
and transcript stay on your device. Nothing is uploaded.

• Know which clip you're editing
When the AI finds several clips, opening one now names it — "Clip 2 of 5" —
so you always know where you are. On iOS 26 the editor also shows how long
the clip runs and that it's 9:16.

• Easier to read at larger text sizes
The Import buttons no longer run off the edge of the screen, timecodes no
longer split across two lines, and the editor's tools stay readable.

• A better fit on iPad
The scene screen, the editor panel and the trim sheet all make better use of
the space on your iPad.

• Smaller fixes
You can now copy your on-screen hook from Post Kit. Once you move a trim
handle, the trim sheet shows your in and out points on one line, and it's
clearer which button saves your changes. On the Subtitles screen, the toolbar
buttons are no longer bunched together.

### 2.6 — 2026-08-01

• Post Kit reopens on its own once they're ready

• More room on iPad. Scenes lay out in columns and the editing sheets
  use the full page.

  Options, plus a number of other stability fixes.

• Fix a word in all your captions at once: tap the magnifying glass in Edit Subtitles, type the word, and tap Replace All. Changed your mind? Tap Undo.
• Keep editing while your subtitles are written — no more waiting screen.
• Captions now sit safely above the area TikTok and Reels buttons cover.
• Easier scene list: tap the new Options button to Keep All, Keep None, or Analyze Again.
• Your work is saved automatically when you leave a project.
• Fixed: videos exported with Enhance could lose their sound.
• Fixed: captions could go missing from exported videos.
• Plus a big stability fixes and polish across the app.
