Go straight to video.

If you have an iPhone or iPad, you probably have a lot of great video. And when you want to do something with it, iMovie lets you cut right to the chase. It’s fun and fast to browse, find your favorite clips, and then share them in seconds.

All your scenes. Easily seen.

The Video browser showcases all your video, so you always have the best seat in the house. And when you find that perfect moment, tap to mark it as a favorite so it’s easy to find later.

Sharing a clip is a snap.

With iMovie, you can share a clip — or a portion of a clip — right from the Video browser without having to create a movie or trailer. Email it, send it via Messages, share it on the web, or add it to iMovie Theater along with your other great productions.

Make movies

No film school required.

A great movie is right at your fingertips. Just choose a theme and the clips you want to use. Then tap and swipe to edit, add effects, and create a soundtrack. With a 64‑bit architecture and 4K support on iPhone 6s and iPad Pro, iMovie makes moviemaking faster and more entertaining than ever. And that, ladies and gentlemen, is a wrap.

A finished movie. From the start.

With 8 unique themes, 10 beautiful video filters, and editing capabilities up to 4K on iPhone 6s and iPad Pro, your movie will look and sound great from the opening credits. Choose a monochromatic theme for drama. Or a travel theme for your most recent adventure. Then take the director’s chair to add matching titles, transitions, and music.

Extra special effects.

Motion picture magic is at your fingertips. Just drag to speed up your clips² or put on the brakes with slo-mo video from iPhone 5s or later. Tap to create cutaways, picture‑in‑picture effects, and split screens. Then use simple Multi‑Touch gestures to resize and reposition them.

You shoot. You score.

It’s never been easier to craft a soundtrack to match your vision. Add background music and sound effects, and record voiceover narration for your movie. And with advanced audio tools, you can trim, split, fade, duplicate, and reposition audio anywhere in the timeline.

Great new features for iPhone 6s and iPad Pro.

iMovie is designed to take advantage of the beautiful 4K video you can shoot and edit on your iPhone 6s. In fact, iPhone 6s is so powerful you can smoothly edit two streams of 4K video to create effects like picture-in-picture and split screen. And 3D Touch lets you speed up common iMovie tasks. Simply press the iMovie icon on your Home screen to start a new movie in seconds, or press any project thumbnail for an instant preview.

iMovie and iPad Pro are also an impressive moviemaking team, giving you a full-resolution 1080p HD viewer and a full-height Media browser that puts your video in the spotlight. Desktop-class performance lets you create advanced effects with up to three simultaneous streams of 4K video and export your 4K video at blazing speeds. And accessories like the Smart Keyboard let you use efficient shortcuts to make quick work of your project.

Create trailers

The feel-good trailer of the year.

You have hundreds of videos. And one big dream to make it in the movies. iMovie trailers let you quickly create something fun from all that footage — and make it look like something straight out of Hollywood.

Get your two minutes of fame.

Choose from 14 movie trailer templates in almost every genre: action, documentary, romantic comedy, indie, family, and more. Spectacular titles and graphics soar across the screen, while legendary performers — including the London Symphony Orchestra — provide an original soundtrack.

Make a long story short.

Built‑in templates make it fast and easy to build your big‑screen teaser. Fill in the outline with your movie title, studio logo, and character names. Add videos and photos to the storyboard with animated drop zones that help you find the best clips, so you can be sure your debut is a hit.
