Clips, originally released on the App Store in 2017, offers fun ways to record and edit videos on iPhones and iPads running iOS 16 or iPadOS 16 or higher. Its key differentiating factor from other video editing tools is that it utilizes the iPhone’s hardware prowess to allow immersive camera effects, stickers, and more. On top of that, Apple Clips is devoid of advertisements, unlike most third-party solutions.
Clips is designed for more casual use — an app you can rely on to capture everyday happenings but with a flair of creativity and uniqueness. This is why the app regularly receives new stickers, filters, and effects. Since the app relies heavily on a good camera system, it is not currently available for other Apple devices. Luckily, there are various other free and budget-friendly video editing apps for beginners that work on a range of devices, including MacBooks.
Certain features, like AR Spaces, are only supported on iPhone 12 Pro and onward or on an iPad Pro as long as it’s the 2020 model or newer. Additionally, Memoji and Selfie Scenes require an iPhone or iPad with Apple’s TrueDepth camera system. A few other effects will also not work on devices older than iPhone 7, iPad 6th generation, or iPad Pro 2017.
