Frequently asked questions
Does the cut start at the exact second I marked?
Almost. The cut can start up to ~2 seconds before the point you mark — that's the price of not re-encoding the video (and of getting the result instantly, with no quality loss). Video can only be cut "cleanly" at certain keyframes, and the tool uses the closest one before your start. If you need frame-level precision, an installed video editor is the right tool.
Does the video lose quality when cut?
No. The tool doesn't re-encode anything: it copies the section exactly as it is in the original file. Every frame comes out identical to what went in — which is why the cut finishes in seconds, not minutes.
What is the maximum video size?
300 MB on a computer and 80 MB on a phone — beyond that the browser would freeze, and the tool warns you before downloading anything. For bigger files, an installed app does a better job.
Which formats are accepted?
.mp4, .mov and .webm — which covers phone, camera and screen recordings. The section comes out in the same format it went in: drop an .mp4, get an .mp4.
Does it work on a phone?
It does, with an 80 MB limit to keep the browser from freezing. Short phone videos fit easily; if yours is bigger, trim it on a computer, which goes up to 300 MB.
Is my video uploaded to a server?
No. The cut happens inside your browser, on your device. The first time, the page downloads the conversion engine (~31 MB) — the engine comes to you, your video never goes to it. After that it stays in your browser cache.
