CutAway is the video trimmer that should have been built into iOS.
Trim your clips, merge them together, and export — without re-encoding. Free. No ads. No subscriptions. No watermarks. No bloat.
HEAR WHERE TO CUT
CutAway is the only lightweight video trimmer with audio scrubbing. Hear exactly where people start and stop talking, so you never cut mid-sentence. Combined with a visual waveform and silence detection, finding the perfect cut point takes seconds — not minutes.
SCRUB, TAP, DONE
Scrub to where you want to cut, then tap Cut Left or Cut Right. Everything on that side disappears. No start and end points. No tiny handles. Just scrub, tap, done. It's 2–3x faster than any other trimmer.
INSTANT EXPORT, ORIGINAL QUALITY
Other trimmers re-encode your video — slow, lossy, and battery-draining. CutAway uses passthrough export: same resolution, same codec, same frame rate. For single clips, export is nearly instant.
MERGE WITHOUT COMPLEXITY
Shot 40 clips at the Eiffel Tower? Trim each one to the highlights, arrange them in order, and export one combined video. No multi-track timelines. No learning curve. Trim, merge, done.
CAPTURE THE PERFECT FRAME
Found the perfect moment? Export the current frame as a high-quality photo. Perfect for thumbnails, social media, or saving a memory.

Ratings & Reviews

Faster exports for large videos.
Exporting a long timeline used to write your video to disk three times over. Now it writes once — large exports are much faster and need far less free space.
Also fixed:
• The filmstrip showed the wrong frames after trimming or splitting a clip
• Deleting a clip could jump the playhead back to the start of the timeline
• The timeline could get stuck zoomed in after touching and holding
• Stutter when turning on the waveform for long clips
• Videos shared into CutAway could be lost if the import failed
• CutAway now asks for Photos access up front, instead of after your first pick
