Stop cutting your videos by hand. SliceIt splits any long video into perfect, ready-to-post clips for WhatsApp Status, TikTok, Instagram Reels, Stories, and YouTube Shorts — in seconds, entirely on your device. Recorded a 5-minute video but WhatsApp Status only allows 30 seconds? Pick the WhatsApp preset, tap Split, and SliceIt saves every 30-second part to your Photos in order — Part 1, Part 2, Part 3 — ready to post. WHY PEOPLE LOVE SLICEIT • ONE-TAP PLATFORM PRESETS WhatsApp Status (30s), TikTok (60s), Instagram Reels (90s), Stories (60s), YouTube Shorts (60s) — or set any custom length you want. • SEE YOUR CLIPS BEFORE YOU EXPORT SliceIt shows a live preview of every segment with thumbnails and an exact clip count, so you know precisely what you'll get before you split. • TRIM FIRST, THEN SPLIT Drag the start and end handles to cut out the boring parts before splitting. No other splitter lets you do both in one step. • NO QUALITY LOSS Export at Original quality (Pro) with true passthrough — your video is never re-compressed. Or choose 1080p, 720p, or 480p to save space. • SMOOTH TRANSITIONS (PRO) Add a few seconds of overlap between clips so your viewers never miss a word when moving from Part 1 to Part 2. • PRIVATE AND FAST Everything happens on your iPhone. Your videos are never uploaded to a server. No account. No watermark.
