YouTube Launches Powerful Mobile Video Editor for iOS Creators
About YouTube Create App
Take your videos to the next level with YouTube Create, the official editing app from YouTube. Add filters & effects, royalty-free music, voiceover, auto-captions and more to easily make amazing videos that will captivate your audience — all without the need for complicated editing tools.
YouTube has officially introduced its long-awaited mobile video editor for iOS, marking a major milestone in mobile content creation. This move comes after months of testing on Android and reflects YouTube’s growing focus on empowering creators who prefer working from their phones.
Until now, iOS creators had to rely on third-party apps like iMovie or CapCut to edit YouTube content. With the launch of this built-in editor, YouTube offers a more seamless, native experience tailored specifically for its platform.
The iOS version of YouTube’s mobile editor offers several intuitive features:
- Trim, Cut, and Merge Clips: Basic yet essential tools for quick edits.
- Add Music and Sound Effects: Browse YouTube’s audio library and enhance videos directly.
- Text and Overlay Options: Insert text, stickers, and emojis to keep content fun and engaging.
- Color Filters and Effects: Apply visual enhancements without leaving the app.
- Draft and Save Projects: Continue editing later from where you left off.
How It Compares to Android
While the feature set is nearly identical, iOS users will enjoy tighter system integration and better performance on newer iPhones. However, some advanced editing tools are still in beta and may roll out gradually.
This update makes it easier for vloggers, short-form creators, and daily bloggers to shoot, edit, and upload content — all from one device. It aligns with YouTube’s broader mission to reduce barriers for creators, no matter their equipment.
