zEdit — The Fully Accessible Video and Audio Editor Built for Blind Users zEdit is the world's first fully accessible video and audio editing app, designed from the ground up for blind and low-vision users. Most media editing tools rely on visual, drag-and-drop interfaces — making them nearly impossible to use with a screen reader. zEdit solves this at its core: every screen, every button, and every gesture is designed to work flawlessly with VoiceOver. You can now edit your videos and audio recordings completely independently, without needing anyone else's help. ACCESSIBILITY COMES FIRST In zEdit, accessibility isn't a feature added later — it's the foundation of the app. It has been tested with VoiceOver at every stage of development. - Flawless VoiceOver compatibility: Every interface element has a meaningful label, hint, and correct reading order. No button is ever announced as an "unlabeled button." - VoiceOver-safe loading overlay: While operations are running, screen reader focus is never lost or thrown to the wrong place; the app tells you out loud what is happening at each step. - Logical navigation order: Screens can be explored from top to bottom by touch, and elements appear in the order you expect. - Spoken feedback: You receive clear announcements when actions like saving, exporting, or trimming are complete. - High contrast and large touch targets: For low-vision users, interface elements are easy to distinguish and comfortable to tap. VIDEO EDITING FEATURES - Trim and cut videos: Precisely set start and end points to remove the parts you don't want. - Merge multiple clips: Combine separate video pieces into one seamless video. - Delete and reorder sections: Remove pieces from the middle of a video or change their order. - Adjust the sound: Change the level of the video's audio, mute it entirely, or add new audio. - Extract audio from video: Save a video's audio track as a separate file. AUDIO EDITING FEATURES - Trim and merge recordings: Bring audio files to the length you want and combine pieces. - Volume control: Adjust the loudness of your recordings. - Add music or other audio: Layer multiple audio sources on top of one another. - Format conversion: Export your audio files in common formats. EXPORTING AND SHARING - Optimized export: The export engine has been refined for speed and quality, so your projects are saved quickly and at high quality. - Quality options: Choose the balance between file size and quality that suits you. - Easy sharing: Send your finished projects directly to other apps or save them to your device. MULTILINGUAL SUPPORT zEdit offers full support in six languages. You can use the app in your own native language and hear all menus and VoiceOver announcements in your language. WHY zEdit? What a blind user needs is not an app that is merely "said to be accessible," but a tool that has truly been hand-tested with every detail considered. That is exactly what zEdit is. It is an app built by a blind developer for blind users. That is why it works in practice, not just in theory. Media editing is now everyone's right. With zEdit, your videos and audio are fully under your control. Download zEdit today and experience what independent, accessible media editing feels like.
ClipCraft Video
Read full descriptionHide full description
ClipCraft trims video — built from the ground up to work with VoiceOver. You select a segment by setting a Start point and an End point, then either export it as a new file or remove it from the video. Everything works by listening. You do not need to see the picture to cut with hundredth-of-a-second precision. PRECISION BY EAR • Start and End sliders with an adjustable step: 1 second, 0.1 second, 0.01 second, or 1, 2 and 4 frames. • "Listen to Start" and "Listen to End" play a short sample around each point, so you can confirm you are cutting where you want. • "Play selection" plays your whole segment. • Times are spoken in minutes, seconds and hundredths. AI FRAME DESCRIPTION • Take a snapshot of the Start or End point and hear what it shows: people, scenery, objects — even the text inside the image. • Invaluable for understanding exactly where you are in the video. • Requires your own Anthropic API key, set once in Settings. DELETE WITHOUT RISK • "Delete selection" removes a segment and joins what remains before and after. • It works on a temporary copy: cut several segments in a row, and if you change your mind, "Back" returns the video whole. • Only "Save" makes the changes permanent. The original video in your Photos never changes. EXPORT • A new MP4 file containing only your selection. • Smooth fade in and fade out on the audio, optionally on the picture too. • Progress is announced as it works. BUILT FOR VOICEOVER • Every control speaks. Nothing is guesswork. • Two-finger double tap to play, from anywhere. • Preview videos inside the library, so you hear which one it is before choosing. • A full manual built into the app. SIX LANGUAGES Greek, English, German, French, Spanish and Italian, following your device language automatically. PRIVACY Editing happens locally on your device. No personal data collection, no advertising, no tracking. Only if you ask for an AI description is that single snapshot sent to Anthropic's service.
