Clipsa Support

How it works

1. Pick a template in the feed.
2. The app goes through the videos in your library right on the iPhone and picks a shot for every scene.
3. Fix what you don't like: swap a shot, choose the moment inside a clip, rewrite the caption.
4. Save the finished vertical 1080×1920 video to Photos or send it anywhere through the share sheet.

Frequently asked questions

Why does the app need access to Photos?

The reel is built from your own videos — without access there is nothing to build it from. The analysis runs on the device and nothing is sent anywhere. Limited access (“Selected Photos”) works too: the app then uses only the videos you marked. You can change that selection inside the app: Настройки → Изменить выбранные видео (Settings → Change selected videos).

The first launch spends a long time “reading the library”

On first run the app looks through a few hundred of your most recent videos — that takes up to a minute and a half. It keeps working through the rest of the library in the background while you browse templates, and pauses when the phone gets warm. If you leave the app, the analysis picks up where it stopped.

Some scenes stayed empty

That means nothing in your library fits those scenes. You can tap an empty scene and choose a clip by hand, search in plain words (“coffee”, “sea”, “gym”), take the shot from the template itself, or make the scene black with a caption.

A clip has a cloud badge and cannot be used

That video lives in iCloud, and only a downscaled copy is on the iPhone. It is enough for matching, but export needs the original — tap “Скачать” (Download) on the clip card, or “Скачать все” (Download all) above the filmstrip. You need a network connection and free space.

How long do matching and export take?

Matching usually takes under a minute; exporting a 15-second reel takes up to 30 seconds on an iPhone 13 Pro Max, longer on older models. If the phone gets hot, iOS slows the computation down and the app waits.

Can I change the text on the video?

Yes. Template captions are editable: tap the scene that carries the text and type your own. The font and the position stay as the template defines them.

How do I delete the app's data?

Настройки → Удалить локальный индекс (Settings → Delete local index) erases everything derived: tags, vectors, thumbnails. Your videos in Photos are untouched. Deleting the app removes the rest.

Is there a subscription?

No. Version 1.0 is free, with no in-app purchases and no ads.

Where do my videos go?

Nowhere. The app has no server and no account. Details are in the privacy policy.
