Questions
Can I cut out the middle of a video?
Not here: Trim keeps one part, from Start to End. To remove a middle part, trim the video twice to keep the two parts you want, then join them with Merge Videos.
Does trimming lose quality?
The cut is exact, so the picture is made again as a new MP4 at up to 1080p. That can look very slightly softer than the original. The sound keeps its quality.
Is there a length or size limit?
You can choose one video up to 10 minutes and about 2 GB. The part you keep can be any length within that.
Which videos can I trim?
The MP4, MOV and WebM videos phones, cameras and browsers make, including iPhone HEVC. You get an MP4.
Does Trim Video work on iPhone and Android?
Yes, in Safari on iPhone and iPad and in Chrome on Android, kept up to date. On iPhone, a video whose sound isn’t the usual kind needs iOS 26 or later; most iPhone videos are fine. If your phone or browser can’t do a video, you’ll see a message instead of a broken file.
Why is it slow on my phone?
Your phone does the work itself instead of sending the video to a server, so the time depends on your phone and the video’s length. Making a new video can take several minutes on a phone; as a guide, an iPhone 15 took about 5 minutes to merge a 9.6-minute video. Keep the page open until it’s done. Stop and edit lets you go back without losing your settings.
Is my video uploaded?
No. Your video is made on your phone or computer and never leaves it, so a big video doesn’t need a fast connection. We only collect anonymous usage counts and error reports, listed on the privacy page.
