Features

After launching of the app, the user sees the view of the front-facing camera. [7] The app allows the user to create a new clip by tapping on a red record button, [8] or use photos or videos from the device's photo library. [9] Once a clip is recorded, it can be added to a project timeline shown at the bottom of the screen. [10] The user can share their project on social media platforms. [2] [9] The user can also add filters and effects to the project. [8] [11] "Live Titles" (available in several styles [12] ) can also be created by dictating to the device. [12] [13]
