Frequently asked questions

Is my video uploaded?

No. The trimmer runs ffmpeg inside your browser, so the video never leaves your device.

What is the difference between Fast and Precise?

Fast copies the video without changing it, which is instant and keeps full quality, but it can only cut at keyframes. Precise re-encodes the clip so it starts on the exact frame you picked, which takes much longer.

Why is the output MP4?

MP4 plays almost everywhere: phones, social apps and editors. If a fast cut cannot be saved as MP4, GlowPress automatically switches to a precise cut.

How big can my video be?

On computers, several hundred MB usually works. On phones keep it under about 100 MB, because the browser has to hold the whole video in memory.

Can I make a GIF from the trimmed clip?

Yes. After trimming, tap Make a GIF to send the clip straight to the Video to GIF tool.
