iMovie is a free video editing application made by Apple for the Mac, the iPhone, and the iPad. It includes a range of video effects and tools like color correction and image stabilization but is designed to be accessible to users with little or no video editing experience.
With iMovie, create professional‑looking videos without an editing degree. Easily add photos and videos to projects, trim clips with your finger, and add seamless transitions.
On iOS and iPadOS, iMovie is preinstalled by default, though you can remove it and reinstall it from the App Store. It requires iOS 15.3 or later. I tested this version of iMovie on an iPhone X and a standard iPad (2019 version). Though Apple has worked to keep the desktop and mobile versions in sync, there are feature differences, discussed below in the mobile section.
This course is designed for beginners with zero experience in video editing.
