How it works
Subject tracking
The AI detects faces and bodies frame-by-frame, then moves the 9:16 crop window to keep the main speaker centered.
Multi-speaker handling
Two-person podcast or interview? Switch which speaker is tracked per segment, or use split-screen to show both.
Logo-aware cropping
If the source has a corner watermark (YouTube logo, channel mark), the reframe biases away from that corner where possible.
Neural Engine fast
30 seconds to 2 minutes per clip on a recent iPhone. Cloud tools take 5+ minutes including upload.
Works offline
After the model downloads once, you can reframe in airplane mode — no Wi-Fi required.
Footage stays local
Your video doesn't go to a server. There's no copy of your face on someone else's GPU.

FAQ
Open Clipped, drop in your horizontal video, and the on-device AI reframes it to 9:16 with subject tracking — the crop window follows the speaker so they stay centered. Free, no upload, no recurring subscription.
Clipped is the only iPhone app that does on-device AI reframe for free with no recurring subscription. Opus AI Reframe is cloud-based and paid. CapCut auto-reframe is free but doesn't do subject tracking — the crop is static.
Cloud reframe (Opus, Lumalabs) uploads your video, processes it on a server, and returns the result — typically 2–5 minutes plus upload time. On-device reframe processes in 30 seconds to 2 minutes locally, with no upload, no account, and no copy of your video on someone else's server.
Subject tracking minimizes this — the crop window follows the main speaker. For multi-speaker scenes (two-person podcast), Clipped lets you switch which speaker is followed for each segment, or apply a split-screen layout that shows both.
