What is your favourite app to record and edit videos?


I am looking for video recorder and editor for Android. What is your favourite choice?

Is there any FOSS video editing app for Android?

I don't know for android. I'll tell you for Windows 10:

- ShareX for screen recording (https://getsharex.com/) and

- Phot-Awe for video editing (https://phot-awe.com) <- yes, that's a shameless plug, it's my app ;)

I know you’re asking for Android, and I unfortunately don’t have an answer for that, but for a FOSS video editor, I got a lot of mileage out of kdenlive last summer on my Linux laptop. I’m not sure that video editing on a tablet would be a particularly good experience tbh... there’s a ton of buttons everywhere.

If you’re less concerned about FOSS, the free version of DaVinci Resolve is awesome. There’s a bit of a learning curve, but I’ve been using it to process drone footage (lots of boring stuff between shots with small clips of action) and I’ve been really impressed.

Do you mean record the screen or record from the cameras?

iMovie. I hate it but it's already on the computer.
