Question 1

How do I trim a video online without uploading?

Accepted Answer

Select your video with the file picker above. All processing happens in your browser. Set start and end times with the timeline slider, then click 'Process Video' to download.

Question 2

What video formats can I trim?

Accepted Answer

You can trim MP4, MOV, AVI, MKV, and FLV video files. MP4 is recommended for best compatibility. The trimmed video will be saved in the same format as the original unless you enable format conversion.

Question 3

Is there a file size limit for trimming?

Accepted Answer

There is no strict limit, but very large files (over 500MB) may cause memory issues in some browsers. For best results with large files, consider trimming shorter segments. The processing happens in your browser, so performance depends on your device.

Question 4

Can I preview my trim selection before processing?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The timeline slider sets start and end points; the video player previews the result in real time as you adjust.

Question 5

How do I shorten an iPhone video before sending?

Accepted Answer

Select your MOV or HEVC file from your iPhone, set the start and end trim points using the slider, then click Process Video. The trimmed clip downloads directly. You can also enable format conversion to MP4 at the same time for better compatibility.
