iMovie
You’ve probably heard of iMovie before; it’s only one of the best free video editing tools you can find on any Apple device — and it’s also available on iPhone.
Granted, editing a full-length movie on your iPhone might be a bit awkward, but the app is perfect for practicing your editing skills or putting together a short video you want to share on Instagram or TikTok. It’s also been around for years; one of our editors used it back in 2010 to put together and share a video of his baby’s first steps — entirely on an iPhone 4.
If you already know what you’re doing, you can import your videos and get to work. Or, if you want a little help, the app comes with many different Storyboards to help you create the content you want.
Plus, you’ll have different styles and filters to make your recordings look even better, and when you’re done, you can export and share your work with your friends and family with just a few taps.
The best part is that since this app is developed by Apple, you know how easy it is to continue working on your videos on your other Apple devices. You can share your progress via AirDrop to your Mac and continue working on a bigger screen. Also: It’s completely, 100% free, with no subscriptions, hidden in-app purchases, or anything of the like.
