A free iOS app that can help you create complex, personal videos by providing you with user-friendly and intuitive editing features

An Overview of Video Editor & Music Movie Maker

Social media in general continues to grow in large part because the sites are becoming far more video-friendly. Whether short clips for sites like Vine, two-minute Twitter clips, or lengthy YouTube videos, more and more mobile users want to start creating their own videos. Though, of course, the editing process can be difficult. This is where Video Editor & Music Movie Maker comes in and makes things a lot easier.

While not a professional video editor that's going to provide all of the tools you find with editors like Adobe or Camtasia Studio, this offering by GalaxyApps can really get the job done. For starters, it's a mobile app that runs smoothly on iOS, so you don't have to actually download a full-sized video editing suite.

What Video Editor & Music Movie Maker Is and What It Does

Video Editor & Music Movie Maker is purely a scaled down video editor that was designed to work well on mobile devices as a lightweight app. You can do a whole lot to edit and produce quality videos. Where it falls short as an actual editor is in offering features like layering tracks, chroma key options, advanced motions and actions, etc. Though for basic functionality, it works really well.

Perhaps the best thing about this editor, besides the fact that it's pretty intuitive and self-explanatory to use, is that it's very light and will not sap up your resources. So you can put some video clips into the editor, even adding music tracks, and create an edited version that you'll be proud of, without having to spend money on a program.

Features of Video Editor & Music Movie Maker

There are four main features of this app that Video Editor & Music Movie Maker use to edit videos. You have features like Join, Compress, Trim and Video Editor. Basically, you can take a full-length video and trim out what you need, not only from the ends but also from the middle. Then you can stick them back together with the Join feature. You can compress everything into one file and then render it.

This app gives users the freedom to really leave a lot on the cutting room floor. This means that you can take a series of videos you've recorded and crop out every bit of the waste and boring stuff, only giving the highlight reel in your final product. This is something a lot of free editors have lacked. They will allow you to trim off the ends, but not cut out from the middle. So this is a big plus for a free program.
