Video Editor & Maker - FilMode

FilMode is a free video editor and video maker for Android, built around a real multi-track timeline instead of a wizard. Drop in your clips, cut to the frame, stack text, music and voice on their own tracks, then export a clean MP4 up to 4K. Nothing is uploaded, nothing is watermarked, and you never create an account. NO WATERMARK. NO SIGN-UP. Every export leaves FilMode clean — no logo in the corner, no end card. No login screen, no banner, no interrupting ad. The one ad is a reward video you tap on the pricing screen to unlock Pro free for 24 hours. EDITS OFFLINE The editor runs entirely on your phone: it works in airplane mode, and your footage never leaves the device. A TIMELINE THAT BEHAVES LIKE ONE • Video, audio, text and overlay each on their own track • Pinch to zoom; magnetic snapping with haptic feedback • Thumbnail strips and live audio waveforms • Split, trim, ripple delete, duplicate, reorder • Merge and join several clips into one movie • Unlimited undo and redo SLOW MOTION AND SPEED RAMPS Hold a constant 0.25x to 4x, or draw a Bezier speed curve that eases in and back out. Freeze a frame and hold it. Pitch lock is on by default, so a slowed voice stays a voice. TRANSITIONS THAT REALLY OVERLAP Dissolve, fade to black or white, slide, zoom, wipe and blur swap — rendered on the GPU with the two clips genuinely overlapping and the audio cross-fading too, not an opacity dip pretending to be a transition. KEYFRAME ANIMATION Animate position, scale, rotation, opacity and volume, with easing. Split an animated clip and the animation survives the cut instead of resetting. TEXT, TITLES AND CAPTIONS Type size is measured against the project frame, so a caption looks identical in a 720p draft, in the 4K export, and on a friend's phone. NARRATION FROM YOUR SCRIPT Paste a script, pick a voice and set its pitch and speed — text to speech lays the narration onto the timeline as an ordinary audio clip you can move, trim and fade. No microphone involved: FilMode does not record audio. FILTERS, LUTS AND COLOUR Filters, LUTs, brightness, contrast, saturation and warmth — every slider previews live while you drag it. MUSIC AND AUDIO Background music, per-clip volume, fade in and fade out, and automatic cross-fades that ride along with every visual transition. STICKERS, PICTURE IN PICTURE, PHOTO MOTION Layer stickers and picture-in-picture video with blend modes and opacity. Still photos get a Ken Burns move so a slideshow never sits flat. SIX TEMPLATES INCLUDED Pick a template, drop your clips into the slots, and the cuts, captions and music are already timed. A finished short in about a minute — then change anything you like. QUICK ON ORDINARY PHONES Importing builds a 960p proxy so scrubbing stays smooth, while every export goes back to your original footage and runs through the phone's own hardware encoder. FREE CORE — AND WHAT PRO ADDS Trimming, splitting, speed, transitions, keyframes, text, filters, audio and export up to 4K are free, with no watermark. FilMode Pro adds the premium colour filters and turns the reward video off. That is the whole difference — nothing else in the editor is behind the paywall. Prefer not to pay? Watch one rewarded video and every Pro filter unlocks for 24 hours. No purchase, no account. PERMISSIONS: ONE, ON OLD ANDROID ONLY FilMode asks for one permission, on Android 7–9 only: storage, when you save a finished video to your Gallery. Say no and the export still succeeds. Android 10 and later ask nothing. Clips arrive through the system photo picker, so the app never reads your whole gallery. Editing uses the network only for anonymous usage and crash diagnostics — turn that off in the Me tab and it stops. The one exception is the reward video: a non-personalised Unity ad, using the advertising ID only to cap repeats. No location, no contacts, no microphone. Requires Android 7.0 or newer.
