Video editing apps for Android and iOS not only help you edit on the go but also enables your content in social media platforms to stand out. This proves that you do not need powerful and expensive PC/laptops to edit and to create professional-looking videos. All you need is your smartphone or tablet, some imagination, and a bit of skill, of course.

We list down our top video editing apps for Android and iOS below that we love using on our phones.

For iOS users:

Splice

Splice claims to give you desktop editing performance on your iPhone or iPad. It has the usual array of editing tools – including trimming, cropping, effects, titles, speed controls, animation, transitions, and music. Just tap to trim clips, adjust transitions, add slow-motion effects, and more to create beautiful videos you love to share.

One of Splice’s strong points is its music offering. It has a wide range of music and sound effects to layer over your video and will even sync your video to the beat of your soundtrack.

iMovie

This app does everything a video editor should do. Using the app is simple. You may drop in your clips, trim them according to your desired size, and add in built-in music, effects, and animated titles. Should you want to add more, you may put some nice extras including split-screen effects, high-fidelity filters, green-screen effects, and the ability to make Hollywood-style trailers.

You can switch between your devices seamlessly, using AirDrop and iCloud Drive, to create your final cut.

This is likely to be described as Final Cut for mobile. If you want to make artistic short videos, have fun using its AI-powered tools to cut and combine video clips, and apply seamless cinematic transitions to your clips. You can also mix videos and images to create double exposure and use layer-based editing to add videos, special effects, text, and pictures for stunning results.

VN is trying to help users improve the efficiency of video editing while making a high-quality video. If you have ever used other desktop editing software, like FinalCut and Adobe Premiere, the VN timeline UI design will be a faster way to get started.

Adobe Premiere Rush

A perfect alternative for Adobe Premiere Pro, the Premiere Rush works across all platforms including iOS and Android devices. Projects are automatically synced to the cloud so each time you open the app, it remembers all your latest edits.

If you’re looking for a basic video editing app, you should give FilmoraGo a try.

The only downside for this app is the lack of support for 4K videos and multi-track editing.
