Make a VHS look on your phone
The twelve tape dials, what each one does to the picture, and three recipes to start from.
Guides
Walkthroughs written against the app, using its own control names and defaults. Short, specific, and about doing one thing properly rather than covering everything.
Walkthroughs
Cut the silence out of a talking video
Tighten a piece to camera in one instruction, then clean up the cuts by hand.
Feature pages
Several of these carry their own step-by-step section, so they are the guide as well as the reference.
Natural-language editing
Type or dictate an editing instruction and Clip Smasher carries it out on your own footage.
Multi-track timeline
Video, audio, text and image tracks, trimming, splitting, stacking and frame-accurate navigation.
Video effects
Every colour, blur, texture and transform effect in the app, and which of them keyframe.
Datamosh transitions
How the Glitch transition smears one shot into the next, and why it is not a filter laid over the top.
Speed ramps
Slow motion, timelapse and ramps that accelerate inside a single clip, with a step-by-step workflow.
Offline editing
What Clip Smasher does with no connection, and precisely what does and does not leave your phone.
