Simple to use + preserves video quality, Includes Photos and Action extensions, and it's free, try it now! This app can be used to quickly combine clips, stabilize videos, loop videos, add music to videos, reverse videos, rotate videos, zoom or crop videos, change video speed, reduce volume, or mirror a video left to right (a.k.a. flip). To use the app from within the Photos app, hit the "Edit" button after selecting a video. Also, anytime a video can be "shared" with the iOS "Share" button, you can use the Video Tools action to edit the video and share it to another app without having to save it again. ===================== Video Editing Options ===================== * Combine * Stabilize * Add Music * Loop * Reverse * Crop / Zoom * Rotate (90, 180, 270) * Change speed (2x, 3x, 1/2 x, 1/4 x), or * Flip (mirror horizontally) * Volume (Muted up to 100%) ===================== What is a Photos Extension ===================== You can directly edit videos while in the Photos app, and the result will overwrite the original. You can "undo" the video to its original version with the "revert" button in Photos. For example, looking through your videos in the Photos app, you notice one video is sideways. While looking at the paused video, tap "Edit", then tap "Video Tools", select rotate and save. Now the video is not sideways when you look through Photos! ===================== How to Enable the Photos extension ===================== 1) Go to the Photos app, 2) Select a video, 3) Tap the Edit button 4) Tap the "...", 5) The extension can be enabled here and dragged to the top of the list: "Video Tools". Afterward, the extension will be visible after tapping Edit. ===================== What is an Action Extension ===================== You can directly edit videos wherever the system "Share" button is used, from the bottom list of "Actions." The result of the edit can be passed to another extension, shared, or saved to the camera roll. For example, you receive a video in a text, with something funny going on in the background. Tap to view the video, then hit the "Share" button. In the bottom gray options, choose "Video Tools". Zoom in on the part you want and hit save, then share the result to Messages and send it back to your friend with the video zoomed on your focus. ===================== How to Enable the Action extension ===================== 1) Go to the Photos app, 2) Select a video, 3) Tap the Share button 4) Tap the "..." at the end of the bottom list (all the options will be black and white), 5) The extension can be enabled here and dragged to the top of the list: "Video Tools". Afterward, the extension will be visible after tapping the Share button.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Clippy holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 122 and 201 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 71% of Video Reverse's written reviews are positive against 65% of Clippy's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
