Edit in iMovie on iPhone or iPad
After you add video clips and photos to the timeline of your project, you can make a clip longer or shorter, change the sequence of clips, or split a clip into two separate clips.
Make a clip shorter or longer
Blueharvest 7 0 5 – disable ds_store creation and more. You can trim a video clip or a photo so it appears for a shorter or longer period of time in your project.
- With your project open, tap the video clip or photo in the timeline. A yellow highlight appears around the selected clip.
- To zoom in on the clip, pinch open in the center of the timeline. When you zoom in, you can see more detail in the clip, which can make it easier to edit.
- Drag the beginning or end of the clip to make the clip shorter or longer:
- To make the clip longer, drag the edge of the clip away from the center of the clip.
- To make the clip shorter, drag the edge of the clip towards the center of the clip.
If you can't drag the edge of the clip, there might not be additional video at the beginning or end of that clip. For example, if you added a video clip that’s 20 seconds long, you can’t make it longer than 20 seconds. It might also mean the clip is at the shortest length allowed by iMovie, which is 0.3 seconds. If you still want to change the duration of a clip, you can try slowing down or speeding up the clip.
Change the sequence of clips
You can change the sequence of clips in the timeline to change when a particular clip appears in your movie. With your project open, touch and hold the video clip or photo in the timeline until it rises off the timeline, then drag and release where you'd like the clip to appear in your project.

- Tap the clip, tap the actions button , then tap Split. Or tap the clip, then swipe down over the playhead on the clip, as if you were slicing through the clip with your finger.
iMovie places a None transition (also known as a cut) between the two newly created clips. You can change this transition to a cross-dissolve or other transition.
