What's New in zEdit

3.6

August 17, 2026

VERSION 3.6 WHAT IS NEW • Export quality is now yours to choose in Settings. Compatibility plays on any device, Balanced is the default, and Highest keeps your recording's codec for a visibly better image at the same file size. • You now choose how the picture sits when resizing. After picking a ratio, Fit keeps the whole image, while Fill removes the black bars completely — turning a landscape video into a portrait one crops a little from the sides. FIXES • The "operation could not be completed" error when opening a video from the photo library is fixed. Importing now works in three stages, and every stage verifies that the file really opens. • Videos shot with the back camera of some iPhone models no longer fail to open. The file is now saved with the extension its container actually calls for. • Exported videos no longer show up as slow motion in the gallery. Only frame rates above 60 are brought down to 60; videos shot at 30 or 60 are left untouched, and duration and speed are preserved exactly. • The Add Audio page in the editor no longer opens blank. • Image quality on export is noticeably better. High frame rate videos are no longer encoded at half the bit rate, the visual effects step no longer drops audio to a single channel, and the audio sample rate now matches the source. • Watermark, subtitles and hook title are burned in a single pass. One encode instead of three: better quality and a noticeably faster export.

Amazing, almost perfect

I love this app, it’s truely the most simple yet effective editing tool I’ve used for IOS. The only complaint I have is with the magic trim feature. I think it works really well, however, when working on a project where I have to trim several parts, I have to exit out of the magic trim interface and go back in to trim another area. Once or twice isn’t to bad, but when I’m editing videos with around 45 minutes of content that needs to be cut it can be somewhat exhausting. But besides that, this is an amazing app with innovative features.

When will you release a new version of the app? I really like it.
Please keep it free, because we appreciate all the effort you put into it. Also, I’d love more sound effects and a royalty-free music library.

Excellent App Enabling Blind/Visually Impaired Users Efficent Audio and Video

Although my use of zEdit is limited to editing videos, there is so much more to this app. zEdit makes editing audio and video content a breeze as an individual with a visual disability. I prefer to use zEdit over QuickTime on the Mac. In fact, zEdit to my knowledge may be the only fully accessible audio and video editor on iOS.

Excelente aplicación. La verdad bastante buena y accesible. Hasta ahora sólo he observado dos pequeñas cosas en las que se podría mejorar. Primero, en el recorte de silencios, sólo lo hace a nivel de audio. Ya que la imagen se pierde cuando se usa esta herramienta. Y lo que queda es solamente audio al momento de exportarlo. Y en los subtítulos automáticos sería bueno que se pueda editar porque el reconocimiento de voz siempre tiene errores.
