Frequently asked questions
Is my video uploaded?
No. Everything is rendered in your browser using your own device. Your video never leaves your computer or phone.
Will brightening add noise?
Brightening also brightens existing noise in very dark footage. Adding a little contrast helps.
Can I make a video darker?
Yes. Use the "Darker" preset or lower the brightness slider.
Need more color controls?
Use the Video Color Adjustment tool for saturation and hue too.
Which browsers are supported?
Recent Chrome, Edge and Firefox, and Safari 16.4+ (color and blur effects need Safari 18). The tool checks support before it starts.
