7. Edit Video on the iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch

One of the hallmark characteristics of iMovie is that it enables anyone to quickly and easily edit a movie using various snippets of video they’ve shot. Now that Apple’s mobile iOS devices all capture HD video, it makes sense that there should be a way to edit that footage together without waiting to bring it back to your computer.

iMovie for iOS takes the concepts used by the Mac version and makes them work on a mobile device. Although you won’t find every feature from the desktop software, iMovie for iOS is more than capable of creating high-quality movies wherever you happen to have some video clips, an iOS device, and a bit of spare time.
