What reviewers say
I used it for simple tiktok videos and it had all the features I wanted from clipping to chroma key
“I can easily add transition by overlapping two clips. After clipping a clip, I can extend it, also. The main advantage was its quality control during export. Compared with capcut it could add auto subtitle feature.”
Best and easy to use video editor for laptop & desktop
“Easy interface. Easy loading of content. Variety of transition effects. Ease of adding text effects. Working with keyframes. Ease of trimming and splitting the video and audio files. Video export speed.”
Shotcut: Amazing Lightweight Free Basic Video Editor
“What I like best in Shotcut are as below: 1. It is free to use. 2. Too many output options for exporting video. 3. Requires very less space for installation. 4. It also supports 4K videos.”
