Frequently asked questions

Does trimming reduce quality?
Usually not. When the output format matches the video's codecs, the clip is copied as-is; otherwise it's re-encoded at high quality.
Are my files uploaded?
No. Processing happens in your browser using your device's built-in, hardware-accelerated video engine (WebCodecs), so your files never leave your device.
Which browsers are supported?
Recent versions of Chrome, Edge, Safari and Firefox. If a format can't be encoded in your browser, you'll see a clear message suggesting another format or browser.
