The Replay Video Editor app available on iOS devices does an amazing job of inspiring you to make
great movies. Everything from the interface and design to the available editing tools promotes creative thinking when editing together the stuff you’ve shot. Replay links directly to your Photo library so you can import any photos or videos into an edit. Once you’ve selected the clips that you want to edit together, Replay will apply a series of effects, music and filters to your sequence automatically. This is how you’ll begin working on an edit, with a selected video style (three of which come free with the app). With a video style selected, you can then modify the font type and add a filter and transition graphics to your clips. This level of control is great as it gives you a preset starting point to give your film a look that you can then adjust accordingly.
Editing in Replay is done with a thumbnail view of all of your included clips. Clips can be trimmed down and ordered as you like. Editing movies on an iOS device is never as smooth an experience as doing it on a computer, but the simplicity of Replay’s editing options keeps it from getting too frustrating. At the same time, you may struggle to splice together a perfectly cut music video using the tap and drag tool when trying to cut a clip down to an exact point.
