Video Stabilizer Pro takes the bounce out of clips you shot walking, dancing, or just trying to keep up. No upload, no account. Pick a video, choose how steady you want it, save the smoothed version. Audio and HDR pass through untouched, and the result keeps the shape of the original — just a little tighter. WHY STABILIZE • Private by design — everything happens on your device. Works on a plane, on a hike, anywhere. • Buy once, keep it forever — the lifetime unlock covers every Apple device you own. Prefer a plan? Weekly and yearly are there too. • Real before/after — drag a divider across the frame to wipe between the original and the stabilized version, both playing in sync at the exact same moment. • Smart enough to leave the right clips alone — screen recordings and animated content won't get mangled. ON EVERY APPLE DEVICE Pro covers iPhone, iPad, and Mac, whether you buy it once or subscribe. Stabilize a clip on your phone right after you shoot it, or pull it onto your Mac for a bigger view and faster turnaround. Family Sharing included. On iPhone Duo, open the phone for a bigger preview with the controls beside it, or stand it half-open on a table: clip on top, dial below. HOW IT WORKS Three taps. Pick a clip, choose a feel — Subtle, Balanced, Steady, or Cinematic — and the app tells you how much of the frame it may trim before you commit. Save. Most handheld clips finish in seconds. GOOD TO KNOW • Works with anything your phone or camera shot. HDR clips stay HDR; Dolby Vision clips keep their full range and come out as standard HDR. • Best for handheld clips up to about 90 seconds — longer ones still work, they just take more time. • When you save, you choose: a clean export with Pro, or one of three free exports at full quality with a Video Stabilizer Pro watermark. Buy Pro once and keep it forever, or subscribe. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://video-stabilizer.dmrschmidt.de/privacy
