Film with both cameras at once, or talk over any video — then decide where your face goes, afterwards. Videogram records you and the scene as separate layers, so nothing has to be decided while you shoot. Pick a layout later, edit the video by tapping words in its transcript, drop the pauses, and export or share the exact cut you want. It all happens on your iPhone. FILM WITH YOU IN IT • Record the front and back cameras at the same time — you and what you're showing • Nothing to set up while shooting: just record, pause and stop • Pause as often as you like; each take can be trimmed, sped up or removed later • Use the 0.5× ultra-wide where your iPhone has one TALK OVER ANY VIDEO • Pick a video — a screen recording, a clip from your trip — and record your face and voice while it plays • Turn the video's own sound off while you talk, or keep it dipped under your voice • Pause and pick up again; your voice and the video stay in step PICK THE LAYOUT AFTERWARDS • Face bubble, split (either way round), picture-in-picture, face only, scene only, audio only • Switch layouts at any moment with a quick cut or a smooth glide • Let the layout follow your speech: face forward while you talk, the scene in the quiet parts • Reframe each camera and blur the background behind you • Works for 9:16, square and 16:9 EDIT BY TRANSCRIPT • Your whole clip becomes text. Tap a word to remove it and the video cuts to match • Remove pauses in one tap — or speed them up, so hands-busy footage still reads • Fix a misheard word by retyping it — captions and exports follow • Transcribes English, Italian, Spanish and French, entirely on your device CAPTIONS • Auto-generated captions that highlight one word at a time, in sync with your voice • Choose words per caption, style, color, size and position — and restyle at any time FRAME GRIDS AND EXPORTS • Turn a video, Live Photos or a set of images into a frame grid, with face-aware cropping • Stitch several videos and photos together • Export the original or trimmed video, Speed Up (2× to 8×), Animated GIF, video without sound, audio only (M4A), the text transcript or the grid image SHARE BY LINK • Turn an export into a web link anyone can open — no app or account needed • Links expire on their own (7 days free; 7, 30 or 90 days with Premium), and you can end one early PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Recording, editing, transcription and background blur all run on your device — no accounts, no tracking • A video leaves your device only when you create a share link, and it's deleted when the link expires • Camera and microphone are used only while you record; photo access only for the items you pick FREE AND PREMIUM Videogram is free to download and every tool is included. Free exports carry a small Videogram watermark, video, GIF and audio exports are limited to 30 seconds, and you can keep one live share link at a time; frame grids and transcripts have no limit. Videogram Premium removes the watermark, exports clips of any length, unlocks Speed Up, Animated GIF and audio extraction, and lets you keep unlimited share links for up to 90 days. Premium is available as a monthly or annual subscription, or as a one-time lifetime purchase. The annual plan includes a 7-day free trial for new subscribers. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period and can be managed in your App Store account settings.

Most collage apps let you add one video and stop there. ReelGrid plays all of them at once. Drop a clip into every cell and hit play — four videos, six, nine, running side by side in a single frame. The reaction. The multi-cam recap. The before-and-after. The highlight reel. One frame, several stories. MULTIPLE VIDEOS, PLAYING TOGETHER • Give every cell its own clip — they all play at the same time • Mix video and photos in the same collage • Trim each clip in the app, right where it sits • Balance the sound cell by cell, or mute the noisy ones 41 LAYOUTS, ALL FREE • Grids, from a simple 2-up to a dense 3×3 • Asymmetric — 70/30 splits, filmstrips, staircases, contact sheets • Creative — polaroid piles, bento boxes, Bauhaus compositions, hexagons • Filter by what you're making: reaction, comparison, multi-cam, highlights Every layout is unlocked from first launch. Nothing in the picker sits behind a lock. FREEFORM — WHEN NO LAYOUT FITS Drag any edge to resize. Cells give and take against their neighbours, so the frame stays full however you pull it around. Even the whole arrangement out, or shuffle it and see what lands. FINISH IT PROPERLY • Captions, titles and labels anywhere on the canvas • Borders, backgrounds and colour themes • Colour filters and per-cell playback speed • Add a music bed, scrub to the right part of the song, fade it in and out EXPORT WHERE IT'S GOING 1:1, 4:5, 9:16, 4:3, 3:2 and 16:9 — sized for Reels, TikTok, Stories, YouTube and the feed. Save as a video or a still image, straight to Photos. Everything renders on your device. Your footage never leaves your phone. WHAT'S FREE All 41 layouts, photo and video collages, the built-in trimmer, text overlays, and square, 4:5 or 9:16 export up to 30 seconds. Free exports save at 720p and carry a small watermark. WHAT PRO ADDS • No watermark • 1080p and 4K export — plus HDR, when your source footage is HDR • Clips up to 60 seconds • Landscape ratios — 4:3, 3:2 and 16:9 • Freeform resizing • Music layer, colour filters with your own LUTs and tone sliders, playback speed • Advanced text styling and the full border editor SUBSCRIPTION ReelGrid Pro is available as: • Weekly — $2.99 • Monthly — $7.99 • Yearly — $29.99 • Lifetime — $59.99, paid once, never renews Prices shown are for the US storefront and vary by region — App Store Connect now sets per-territory pricing, so the exact price is always shown in the app before you buy.
