Turn longer recordings into share-ready clips on your iPhone. ReelClip works on device, so your video stays private. Choose the editing path that fits your footage: • Slice: select the moments you want to keep. • Cut: split a video by clip count, length, and spacing. • Transcript: remove words, sentences, and pauses by editing the text. • AI: describe the moments you want and let ReelClip plan the cuts. Add timed captions in Pop, Karaoke, Clean, or One Word styles. Translate captions into available languages and create a synthetic dub when it fits your edit. Preview every cut before it is saved. Save clips to Photos, export subtitle files in SRT, VTT, or plain text, or save a ReelClip project and keep editing later.
