Video trimmer on Mac

How often does it happen that you don’t need the whole recording, but only a part of it? Quite often, doesn’t it? Or you want to edit videos on Mac, cut the unneeded parts out, and stitch the rest together.

Luckily, with modern technologies, editing QuickTime or any other videos is easy as ABC. You don’t have to install any MOV editors or any other software on your MacBook, as online solutions work in a browser on any device with Internet access.

With Clideo service, you can cut your clip in chunks, delete the parts you don’t need, and save other snippets as separate videos. Make sure the initial file doesn’t exceed 500 MB, and the whole editing process will be free.

Our tool is compatible with most video extensions, and it also acts as a format converter. So, you can not only edit MP4 on Mac but also turn it into a .MOV file, for example.
