thank you so much i made a 1 hour reaction video and i was trying to cut out the ads

Unfortunately it doesn't do what I want it to do, and that is simply to AUTOMATICALLY split a long video into workable, 10 minute parts for the sort of editing I need to do (colorising old movies)

Nice video too, I have been using Kapwing for years, but I can never salt them after I cut them.
If the video is longer than 60 minutes, you practically can't shorten it and obviously save it ...

I understand it's so you get credit for the videos creators edit.. but I feel like the 3 free no watermark exports a month is kinda strange

[supernaturalfreedominchrist]

It will not split mine. Can you please help?

An easy text effect could be “glow” I do it manually by duplicating the text and setting the blur to its highest and putting it infront. Instead of this you could just “glow” just like how drop shadow works!

How do I download file if I don't have pro?
