How to Trim Your Videos Online for Free
This step-by-step guide caters to all, whether you're new to video editing or a pro in need of a quick fix. Our Trim tool is the perfect balance of simplicity and efficiency, allowing you to trim videos quickly without compromising on quality.
Start by uploading your video
The first step in transforming your video creation is uploading your video to our online video trimmer. Just select and upload a file from your device, or seamlessly drag and drop it directly into the editor. Our platform supports a wide range of video file formats, including popular options like MOV, AVI, and MP4, ensuring a hassle-free editing experience with no format limitations.
Choose what you want trimmed
Once your video is uploaded, you'll enter the trimming interface—a place where precision meets simplicity. You'll find your video displayed with a timeline beneath it. This timeline features a draggable yellow section, allowing you to select the precise portion of the video you want to keep while gracefully trimming away the rest.
For those who demand pinpoint accuracy, our Properties section provides additional options for making more accurate cuts. Here, you can input the exact start and end times for your trimmed video, guaranteeing that each second is a masterstroke of your vision. The Properties tab also displays the trimmed video's duration, giving you full control over the final outcome.
Preview and output details
As you make these refinements, our Trim Tool grants you a real-time preview of your video, revealing precisely how it will appear once trimmed. Below the timeline editor, you'll uncover critical output details, including the total duration, resolution, and framerate of your trimmed masterpiece.
Making the final cut
Once your video is trimmed down to perfection, all that’s left to do is click on “Trim & Download”, and the download process will start automatically. Your precisely edited creation is on its way.
If you spot other video segments you’d like to cut, just click “Start Over” and start trimming more clips. You can then use our Merge tool to combine all the cutouts into a unified video story.
