## What is TiltShift Video?

TiltShift Video gives you all the editing features you need to turn your videos and photos into awesome tilt-shift creations. Universal app, optimized for all the Retina displays. http://tiltshiftvideoapp.com/

Until now, tilt-shift videos required very expensive lenses for your DSLR or a professional video editing software to edit your video and simulate the effect. In both cases, you also needed a good deal of patience. Not anymore, now you just need this App!

TiltShift Video App uses the processing power of your iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad to quickly apply the tilt-shift effect to your videos & photos. Designed to be easy to use, but highly customizable, all the editing options are at the tip of your finger. The preset functionality will let you save your favorite settings and apply them later as filters to any video or photo.

*2025-11-22*

Opens, can browse effects, but as soon as I click on certain buttons- the tick, mail (for help with the issue) it crashes. Don’t waste your money.

### 2/5 — Doesn’t apply the effect on iPhone 15

*2025-04-25*

Not sure if the app is still being maintained. The interface is quite old looking. Anyway the tilt shift effect does not work. Yes, other features work like changing the time speed and color, but blur, the feature you want, does not work. Tried it with 3 separate video files and nothing.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t even work
