Read full description

Speed Contact Sheet is the fastest way for professional photographers to cull and rate an entire session โ€” thousands of frames โ€” and reach a clean selection with no imports, no copies, and no waiting. Your originals are never moved or modified. WHAT MAKES IT FAST โ€” Designed for touch, on iPad and iPhone Not a desktop tool squeezed onto a phone. Swipe to rate, swipe to move between frames, pinch to zoom up to 5ร—. Your hands stay on the screen and your eyes stay on the photo. โ€” Straight-from-the-card workflow Connect a card reader to your iPad, open a folder, and start rating. No catalog to build, no background import. Every rating is written the instant you make it, right next to each photo. โ€” Ratings that travel anywhere Stars, color labels, and flags are saved as standard XMP โ€” embedded in the JPEG or as a sidecar beside your RAW. Your selections flow into any professional editing or asset-management pipeline. No lock-in, no proprietary catalog. โ€” One workflow across Mac, iPad, and iPhone Start in the field on iPad, finish in the studio on Mac. Turn on private iCloud sync and your uploaded photos and their ratings flow to their final destination automatically. Rate on one device and the latest rating is pulled back to the others on its own โ€” so you never lose your selection progress. All through your own iCloud, never our servers and never a third party. โ€” Burst detection, done for you Rapid-fire sequences are grouped automatically, and a built-in sharpness analyzer surfaces the crispest frame so you only judge the contenders. โ€” Cull hands-free, stay in your flow Full game-controller support: map navigation and ratings to a controller and keep your rhythm without ever looking away from the photo. Complete keyboard shortcuts on Mac, too. โ€” Stay in the zone An optional built-in focus timer keeps your attention sharp through long culling sessions. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your photos and ratings live on your device. Optional iCloud sync stays inside your own private iCloud. No ads, no tracking, no third-party servers, no separate account to create. BUILT FOR โ€” Wedding and event photographers culling thousands of RAWs from a single day โ€” Sports and action shooters pulling the keepers out of long bursts โ€” Editorial and portrait photographers who deliver same-day โ€” Anyone who'd rather trust their own eye than let software decide Speed Contact Sheet. Built by a photographer, for photographers. SUBSCRIPTION Speed Contact Sheet is available with a subscription after a free trial. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase.

About

Video Speed Editor

Features
Read full description

Change video speed from 0.1x all the way to 8x, right on your iPhone or iPad. Video Speed Editor is a fast, offline video speed changer and video speed controller in one โ€” increase video speed for time-lapse and fast-forward effects, or decrease it for cinematic slow motion, without uploading a single file anywhere. Whether you want a simple video speed editor slow & fast, or a full video speed changer with segment-level control, this app covers editor, changer, and controller in one. Three ways to change video speed Full Video โ€” apply one speed to the entire clip. Pick from a wide range spanning slow motion (0.1x, 0.2x, 0.3x, 0.4x, 0.5x, 0.75x) to fast motion (1.25x, 1.5x, 1.75x, 2x, 2.5x, 3x, 4x, 5x, 6x, 8x), with the projected output length shown instantly. Presets โ€” twelve ready-made speed-ramp patterns: Slow Intro, Fast Intro, Slow Middle, Fast Middle, Slow End, Fast End, Dramatic, Pulse, Ramp Up, Ramp Down, Timelapse, and Slow Motion. Each one previews on a color-coded timeline before you commit, so you know exactly what you're getting. Custom (Play & Tap) โ€” play the video and tap a speed at any point to start a new segment there, or drag the timeline to a point without playing at all. Slow down the highlight, speed through the boring bits, speed ramp between them. Every segment stays editable and deletable afterward. Built for real workflows โ€ข Increase video speed for time-lapse, hyperlapse, and fast-forward summaries โ€ข Decrease video speed for slow motion video, sports replay, and dramatic reveals โ€ข Multi-segment speed ramp editing โ€” different speeds for different parts of one clip โ€ข Color-coded visual timeline with live playhead, so you always see what's changing โ€ข Batch-friendly single-file workflow with instant original-to-output duration preview โ€ข Optional custom output filename โ€ข Hardware-accelerated encoding โ€” most clips process in seconds โ€ข Works fully offline; your videos never leave your device โ€ข Premium upgrade removes ads Supported formats Import MP4, MOV, MKV, and other common video formats. Audio speed adjusts automatically, so slowed or sped-up clips never sound chipmunked โ€” timing stays natural throughout. Change video speed for โ€ข Vloggers and creators making cinematic slow-mo or snappy fast-forward cuts โ€ข Sports coaches and analysts reviewing form frame by frame in slow motion โ€ข Fitness trainers demonstrating technique in slow motion for clients โ€ข Musicians slowing down performance footage to study timing โ€ข Anyone turning a long recording into a quick time-lapse or hyperlapse summary Not included: trimming/cutting video, merging clips, or removing audio โ€” use a dedicated tool for those. This app is focused on one thing: changing video speed, accurately and offline. Why choose Video Speed Editor Most "video speed control browser" tools only work in a browser tab and need an internet connection. This is a standalone app that works completely offline, with no account, no cloud upload, and no watermark on your output โ€” whether you think of it as an editor, a changer, or a controller. The Play & Tap custom editor is the most flexible option โ€” build as many speed segments as you need on a color-coded timeline, or drag straight to a point instead of playing through the whole clip. Presets give you the same multi-segment power in one tap, for a slow-motion intro or a dramatic speed ramp without manual editing. How to use Open Video Speed Editor, select a video, choose Full Video, Presets, or Custom, adjust the speed or segments, then tap Save. Your finished video is saved to the Output Files list, ready to review and share. Download Video Speed Editor and change video speed exactly how you need โ€” slow motion, fast forward, or a custom speed ramp โ€” processed privately, offline, on your iPhone or iPad.
