About

Turnip

Features
Read full description

Turnip is an auto-editor for tricking practice videos. Film a session — with Turnip's own camera or any video already in your Photos library — and Turnip does the rest: it finds every trick, trims out the setup and standing-around time, and crops each clip in on the athlete, ready to post. HOW IT WORKS • Point Turnip at a video. It runs on-device pose detection to find every span of athletic motion in the footage — no manual scrubbing. • Each trick gets its own clip, trimmed to a second before the motion starts and a few seconds after it settles, so landings aren't cut short. • Every clip is auto-cropped to follow the athlete, framed for Reels, TikTok, and Shorts. • Preview every clip as an autoplaying loop, keep or discard with a tap, then fine-tune the trim and crop by hand before you export. • Export sends finished clips straight to your Photos library, with a share action on each one. BUILT FOR TRICKERS Whether you're a tricker, martial artist, gymnast, or anyone drilling movement on camera, Turnip turns one long practice recording into a folder of clips worth keeping — without an hour in a video editor. PRIVACY BY DESIGN Turnip processes everything on your device. There are no accounts, no sign-in, and no analytics — your videos never leave your phone. Turnip asks for Photos access to read and save your videos, and for camera and microphone access only if you record inside the app. REQUIREMENTS iPhone running iOS 16 or later.
