Trim a video online — accurate cuts, no upload
Enter a start time, an end time, or both. Cutmoor re-encodes the selected range rather than copying whole keyframes, so the cut lands where you asked instead of a second or two earlier. That matters for short-form video, where the first frame is the hook.

The selected range is re-encoded for an accurate cut and saved to your device.
Trim video: common questions
Is the cut frame-accurate?
Yes. Cutmoor re-encodes the range, so it does not snap to the nearest keyframe. The tradeoff is speed: a re-encode takes longer than a stream copy, especially on a phone.
Can I remove the middle of a video?
Not in this version. Cutmoor trims from the start, the end, or both. To remove a section in the middle, export the two remaining pieces and join them in an editor.
Does trimming change the resolution?
No. The frame size stays the same unless you also use the resize tool. The video and audio codecs are re-encoded to MP4 with H.264 and AAC.
Why does the timer not match the file exactly?
Players round to the nearest second, and some containers store a slightly different duration than the visible video. Use the preview timecode as a guide, then check the exported clip.
