How it works

Trim & crop in three steps

1

Add your video

Drag a clip onto the box or click to browse. It loads instantly — no upload.

2

Set the range & shape

Drag the start and end points, then pick a crop ratio for the platform you’re posting to.

3

Export

Export the kept section as a WebM with sound. Trim and crop as many clips as you like.

Why use it

Reframe for every feed

Precise trimming

Set the in and out points to a tenth of a second to keep exactly the section you want.

Aspect presets

Center-crop to 1:1, 4:5, 16:9 or 9:16 for feeds, portraits, YouTube and Stories or Reels.

Audio kept

The soundtrack for the kept section is carried through, so the clip still has sound.

100% private

Trimming and cropping run on your device — your footage is never uploaded.

Good to know

Trimming and cropping, explained

Trimming changes when a clip starts and ends; cropping changes what the frame shows. This tool does both locally — it plays the section you keep, redraws each frame into your chosen crop on a canvas, and records the result with sound. Because it renders in real time, a kept section plays through once as it exports.

Pick the right shape

Use 1:1 for feed squares, 4:5 for tall feed posts, 16:9 for YouTube and 9:16 for Stories, Reels and TikTok. Cropping trims the edges — it never stretches or distorts the picture.

Trim tight for attention

Short, tightly-trimmed clips hold attention far better on social. Cut the slow lead-in and end on the moment that matters — the first second is what decides whether people keep watching.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is the trimmer free?
Yes — completely free, no account, no limits and no watermarks. It’s part of Creator Studio.
Is my video uploaded?
No. Trimming and cropping happen locally in your browser, so your footage never touches a server.
Does the crop keep quality?
Yes — the crop keeps the pixels inside the frame at their original resolution; only the trimmed-off edges are removed.
Does it keep the sound?
Yes, the audio for the section you keep is carried into the export in supported browsers like Chrome and Edge.
What format is the output?
WebM — a modern, well-compressed format that plays in every major browser and on most devices.
