Edit spatial videos seamlessly across iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Vision Pro — and even preview the 3D effect without a headset. Built from the ground-up for Apple platforms in SwiftUI. • Edit non-destructively. Your original clips are never altered. • Generate spatial videos from regular 2D clips using custom on-device machine learning models and rendering pipelines. • Import common packed 3D video formats, including side-by-side and top/bottom, and automatically convert detected clips into spatial videos. • Convert every 2D video in a project to spatial at once from the Project Inspector. • Rearrange clips with simple drag-and-drop timeline editing. • Trim clips, apply filters, and add visual effects. • Crop ordinary and spatial videos with freeform bounds or built-in aspect ratios, and scrub through the clip to preview the framing before applying it. • Rotate individual clips left or right in 90-degree increments. • Add images with automatically applied Ken Burns-style pans and zooms. • Add Cross Dissolve, Dip to Black, Wipe, and Push transitions between clips, customize their timing, and choose a direction for Wipe and Push. • Preview the 3D effect of spatial videos on iPhone, iPad, and Mac, and view individual clips directly in 3D on Apple Vision Pro. • View spatial videos in true 3D on Apple Vision Pro. • Export an animated “spatial GIF” based on a frame from a spatial clip. • Use the export sheet to choose destination, optional spatial conversion, and output format, including Spatial Video, Side by Side, Side by Side Half, Top/Bottom, and Top/Bottom Half. • Swap in your own music or audio tracks, then trim and tweak them. 100% Private CosmiCut never collects or transmits your data.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: CosmiCut at 5.0 against Spatial Media Toolkit's 4.6. Spatial Media Toolkit's advantage is ratings volume (158 vs 6) and review sentiment (66% vs 50%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

CosmiCut holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Spatial Media Toolkit has 158 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 66% of Spatial Media Toolkit's written reviews are positive against 50% of CosmiCut's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Spatial Media Toolkit ships an update monthly, CosmiCut every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 16, 2026 respectively.
