iMovie hands you a .mov unless you ask for something else. Apple documents one route to MP4, on a Mac only: Share, then Export File, with Quality at Medium or Low and Resolution at 720 or 540. Anything higher comes back as QuickTime.
The quickest way to merge videos on Mac is QuickTime Player, which is already installed: open the first clip and choose Edit > Add Clip to End. Reach for iMovie when the clips also need trimming, music or titles.
To combine video clips online, drag your files onto one timeline track in a browser editor, close the gaps between them, then export a single file. Clipchamp, Clideo and Canva all do this. The export screen decides the result, not the join.
To trim video Snapchat has just recorded, open the Timeline Editor from the preview screen and drag either end of the clip. A Snap already sitting in Memories is a different screen with fewer controls. Anything longer than a Snap belongs on a computer.
iMovie is the video montage app iPhone owners should start with: a download from Apple at no cost, one timeline, and an export back to the camera roll. CapCut is the step up when you want captions. Photos cannot join two clips.
To merge videos on Windows 11, open Clipchamp and drag the clips side by side on one timeline track. On Windows 10 the old Photos Video Editor has gone from the new Photos app, so the same Clipchamp runs in a browser instead.
A YouTube to MP4 trim is two jobs, and the order decides how much work it is. Trim inside YouTube Studio and nothing is downloaded. Pull the MP4 down first and you need an editor, plus the right to that video.
You can add music to video for Facebook two ways. Pick a track inside the Reels camera and Meta's license covers it. Score the video elsewhere and the clearance is yours, which is how a post ends up silent.
The Crop effect in Premiere Pro hides the edges of a clip. It does not change the size of the frame around it, which is why a cropped clip still exports at the sequence dimensions with empty space where the picture used to be.
A subtitle editor for Windows does one of two jobs. Subtitle Edit fixes and retimes a subtitle file you already have. Clipchamp writes one from the speech in your video. Most people need the second, then the first.
