FramePull finds every cut in your video and pulls stills, clips and GIFs out of it — right on your iPhone or iPad. Load a video from your library or from Files. FramePull analyses every single frame and marks each cut on the timeline, frame-exact, with no drift. Too many cuts, or too few? Sensitivity has three settings, and you can re-run detection at any time. MARK WITH YOUR THUMB IN, STILL and OUT as large buttons. Markers snap onto the nearest cut when you are close to one, and the OUT point lands exactly one frame before it, so the cut frame never ends up inside your clip. Order does not matter: IN then OUT, or OUT then IN. GENERATE IN ONE TAP One tap turns the detected cuts into a still per scene, placed in the middle of each. Clips can span one, two, three or four scenes, so you get short sequences that keep their cuts instead of being chopped apart by them. SWIPE INSTEAD OF TICKING BOXES Everything you marked comes back as a card deck. Swipe right to keep, left to delete. Stills show the exact frame; clips loop right there in the card. BUILD GRIDS FOR STORIES Arrange stills and clips into a 1x1 up to 3x2 grid at 1:1, 4:5, 9:16 or 16:9. Auto Fill picks a set for you and lays it out in timeline order; tap Re-roll for a different set. Pan and pinch inside any cell to reframe it. Grids of stills render as JPEG, and any grid containing a clip renders as video — 2160x3840 for 9:16. EXPORT Stills as JPEG, PNG or TIFF. Clips as MP4 from 480p to 4K, muted if you like. GIFs too. Add 4:5 and 9:16 crops for feed and story. Save straight to your photo library, or into a folder of your choice in Files, sorted into stills, gifs and videos. NO INTERNET, NO ACCOUNT Everything happens on your device. No uploads, no cloud, no account, no subscription. BUY ONCE, USE EVERYWHERE FramePull for Mac is included in the same purchase. The Mac version additionally offers LUT support for .cube files. Requires iOS 16 or later.

FramePull Pro's advantage is update cadence (every 10 days vs monthly). On review sentiment, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
