Sports Edit

Read full description

Sports Edit makes it easy to add scores to sports videos. Record a match and track the score at the same time, or import an existing video and add the score afterward. Scores recorded during filming are saved as editable project data. If you make a mistake, you can fix it later. Your original video stays untouched until you export the finished version. Supported sports: • Volleyball • Badminton • Tennis • Padel • Soccer • Basketball Key features: • Record video while tracking the score • Add scores to existing videos • Undo / Redo • Sport-specific scoring and match progression • ROUGH / FINE precision seeking • Video trimming • Create custom highlight ranges • Export highlights only • Add highlights to the end of the full match • Title cards • Save finished videos to Photos Keep your match videos organized When match videos pile up, it can be hard to remember which game is which in Photos. With Sports Edit, you can add a title card with the event, opponent, date, or other details at the beginning of the video, making it easy to identify later. Even if you don’t edit the score, you can add just a title card and save the video. No need to manually recreate every score change as text. Just record the scoring events and let Sports Edit manage the scoreboard. Record it. Edit it. Highlight it. Keep it organized.
