CutStory is a video editor, video splitter and automatic subtitle maker for vertical video. Record video right in the app or import your own. Edit on a multitrack timeline, create captions from speech, edit with AI, and turn one long video into a series of clips for Reels, Stories, YouTube Shorts, TikTok, Telegram, WhatsApp, LinkedIn and other social media. SPLIT A LONG VIDEO Choose a social network or set your own duration — CutStory splits the video into parts of the right length and saves every clip as a separate file. 21 ready presets. With Quick Cut you can cut a video straight from the Photos app through the Share menu, without even opening CutStory. AUTO CAPTIONS AND SUBTITLES The AI caption generator creates subtitles from speech in a few taps. Show captions word by word or line by line, edit the text and timing, change the recognition language, font, color, outline, background and animation. EDIT VIDEO WITH AI No menu hunting — tell CutStory by voice or in chat what you want: "add music to the whole video", "add transitions", "cut this video into one-minute clips", "make it ready for TikTok". The AI assistant understands 113 editing commands and runs them on your timeline. A FULL VIDEO EDITOR • Multitrack timeline: video, photos, music, voiceover, text, stickers and subtitles • Cut out weak moments, trim, split, merge, duplicate, replace, freeze frame • Video over video, extract audio and several audio tracks • Slow motion, speed up video, rotate, flip, zoom, crop and loop • 90 transitions, 185 color filters and video effects • Text and sticker animation, your own fonts and saved styles • Frame sizes and safe zones for every social network • Backgrounds: color, gradient, image or blur — fit any video with no crop • Slideshow maker, PhotoGrid layouts, photo and video collage maker • Autosaved projects, undo and redo TEMPLATES Use ready-made templates for reels and stories: drop in your clips and photos, then change the music, text, subtitles, stickers and the edit itself. Your own project can be saved as a template too. SHOOTING IN CUTSTORY Multicam records live from the back and front camera at the same time: show what is happening and your reaction in one video. MusicCam lets you pick a track and film in sync with the music. The teleprompter shows your script over the camera, so you can read and keep your eyes near the lens. Shoot up to 4K, 24/30/60 FPS, SDR or HDR. MUSIC, LOGOS AND GRAPHICS Add music from the catalog or your own audio files, record a voiceover and set the volume of each track. Use text, GIF, stickers, your own logo or watermark, AI backgrounds and AI stickers. EXPORT Save video in 720p, 1080p or 4K, 24/30/60 FPS, SDR or HDR. Export the movie as one file, or every part of the split as a separate clip. WHO CUTSTORY IS FOR • Content creators and vloggers — reels, stories and shorts • Podcasters — cutting long episodes into short video clips • Experts, teachers and coaches — talking-head videos with a teleprompter and captions • Realtors and reviewers — filming on a dual camera to show the place and your reaction at once • Dancers and anyone filming to music — recording straight to the track with MusicCam • Small businesses — product videos with a logo, text and brand style • Anyone working with photos — slide show, PhotoGrid and video collage From filming to posting: video editing, splitting and automatic captions in one app. 19 interface languages. iPhone and iPad. iOS 15 and later. CUTSTORY PRO CutStory is free to download. CutStory Pro unlocks premium features and removes the watermark. Payment is charged to your Apple ID after the purchase is confirmed. The subscription renews automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Manage it in App Store settings.

💯 But I have 2 Feature Requests:
11/08/2018
Steve UX
1- ADD THE OPTION TO ⭐️ MUSIC TRACKS. It takes so much time to load n listen through all of them. As a content creator I already know which ones I wanna come back and use on other vids in the future- just make it easier for us to know which is which. 2- 🎦 ROUNDED RECTANGLE THUMBS R BETTER THAN 🔵 CIRCULAR THUMBS (DIFFICULT TO SEE THE DIFF BTW 1 CLIP VS ANOTHER)! For ex: I just shot a stopmotion intro using CutStory but I dared try and move some clips around n suddenly I COULD NOT tell one thumb from another bc what I had changed was in the edges of the frame. N circular thumbs ONLY show me what’s happening in the middle. (Can you make it so when we tap/ drag on the circle thumb, the animation quickly transforms to rounded rectangle so we can preview the full content in the shot just to make sure)?Thank you!3) Why is the WATERMARK FEATURE only accessible to turn on or off AFTER you have started a current export?? I had to export a vid then turn off/on the setting, and re-export.

Thank you vary much for your review. It's a very important to us have a feedback from users.1 - We can do Favorites only for Local Media library, hope it is OK for you.2 - We will think about rectangle thumbs. But you can easy recognize tapped one by ✔️ symbol inside the circle. 3 - In a top left corner of main screen 💲-icon. It's all in-app purchase

Why does app not auto save footage to photo album on cellphone?! Ive looked through the settings in the app there is not a setting for that option that I can find I’ve lost 2 live videos now that I forgot you have to push SAVE TO PHONE. And that is why I only rate this app at four ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️ other than that audio sounds good video footage comes out nice unlike other apps I have tried. The other apps did auto save my videos, however. And that alone is enough for me to go back to one of those apps instead of this one.🟢NOTE what developers said is somewhat true. Yes after them telling me how to find saved projects I found it. HOWEVER I can not open it or down load it with out paying yearly fee or monthly fee as that’s only available to pro. “ The access to all recent projects are available in CutStory PRO” 🟢

Text boxes?
01/22/2020
Go me :D
The app has worked pretty freaking well, until I tried to add texts boxes which are almost impossible to reshape or move. It’s frustrating because the video will start play as I’m trying to relocate or resize text.Update: after posting this everything is working perfectly now. I use it to create subtitles on videos and it’s perfect for that and cutting videos to the size you want. Haven’t used it for music or any of the layouts but everything I need has been available this far.

Works but...

The app does a good job of cutting 15 seconds segments for Instagram or what not. Where it fails, is that sometimes if you add music underneath its time matches with the video but often times, it doesn’t. You can scroll and set a starting point for the music so it is on Tempo. I’m a drummer and often record myself with my phone playing and then add the recorded music track underneath it. However, I’d say only 30 percent of the time the Music actually matches up with the video once it is rendered. You can make it sync up in the app but then it has to cut up the videos and deliver them back to your phone. When that happens, the music is usually off. If you just need to cut up long videos into segments, I haven’t had any problems with that.
