Mobile‑Only Video Editing Workflow for Creators

Capsai Video Editor at No. 1
use Capsai’s mobile‑friendly editor to upload, trim, add transitions and generate subtitles - all in one app. open your phone browser, go to https://capsai.co/, and tap Upload Video or Paste URL to get started.
plan your shoot for vertical format
record in 9:16 orientation with clear framing and good lighting. keep clips under 30 seconds to simplify trimming and maintain viewer attention.
trim and arrange clips on the timeline
tap the clip in Capsai’s timeline view, drag the handles to remove dead space, and reorder segments by long‑pressing and dragging to set your story flow.
add quick transitions and effects
select the Transitions tab, choose a fast cut or fade preset, and apply between clips to create a polished, professional look without manual keyframing.
auto‑generate and refine captions
switch to Subtitles, select your language (Hindi, Hinglish or English), and tap Generate Subtitles. correct any errors in the inline editor and split long lines at natural pauses for mobile readability.
layer music or voiceover
tap the Audio icon to upload a music track or record a voiceover. adjust volume levels so narration or captions remain clear over background music.
overlay text and stickers
use the Text tool to add call‑to‑action prompts or branding - position them within the center‑safe zone and keep each overlay to two lines of no more than 30 characters.
preview in real time
hit Play to watch your edit; look for pacing, subtitle timing and audio balance. make quick adjustments by tapping any segment and tweaking handles or settings.
export optimized for social
tap Export, choose the vertical preset (1080×1920), and download your MP4. Capsai’s server‑side processing ensures high quality with minimal wait time on mobile.
upload and monitor performance
open your target app (Instagram Reels, TikTok or YouTube Shorts), select your freshly edited video, add captions or tags if desired, and post. then use in‑app analytics to track views, retention and engagement - ready to refine your next mobile edit.
