Frequently asked questions
Why does trimming take as long as my selection?
Like our compressor, the trimmer re-records your selection in real time inside the browser — the privacy-friendly trade-off for zero uploads and zero cost. A 20-second selection takes about 20 seconds.
Will quality drop after trimming?
We re-encode at a generous 5 Mbps up to 1280px, which looks identical for sharing on phones and social media. Keep your original as the master copy.
Can I cut several separate moments from one video?
Yes — trim one moment, download, then just move the sliders and trim again. Your original file stays untouched.
Which formats can I trim?
Anything your browser plays (MP4 works everywhere, plus WebM and most MOV). Output is MP4 where supported, otherwise WebM.
