And if you are lacking inspiration, an AI-managed module offers you other possibilities such as sky replacement, 3D effects and special filters.
Another strong point of InShot is that it is not just a video editor. It’s also a photo editing and collage app. These are not the features we are interested in in this article, but they could make the difference if you have to choose an application among all those presented here.
VN Video & Photo Editing, for more experienced users
VN video editing is aimed at more experienced users. Not because of an overly complex interface, but because this application integrates very advanced features, generally reserved for desktop software.

But it also offers professional tools such as PiP, frame masking and blending, frame rates, freeze frame, LUT filters and keyframe animation. Adding subtitles and synchronizing with sound are also available features.
