FAQ
Sermon clipping on iPhone, answered.
What's the best free sermon clipping app for iPhone?
Clipped finds the strongest moments, keeps the pastor in frame at 9:16 and adds captions, on iPhone or iPad, free, with no upload. Exports carry a small clipped.cc watermark; one optional one-time purchase removes it.
How do I clip a sermon on iPhone?
Save the service recording to Photos or Files (MP4 or MOV, up to 2 hours). Open it in Clipped, set How long? to 30 or 60 seconds, then keep the best ranked clips and export.
How long should a sermon clip be?
Short enough to land without context. In Clipped, How long? offers Auto, 15, 30, 60 or 90 seconds.
Can I make sermon quote cards?
Yes. Quote card turns one line into a still image over a frame from the clip, in several layouts.
Can I add our church's name or handle?
Yes. The Text tool has a Title bar (a black band with an editable title) and your @handle, which shows on every clip, free ones too. Remember my style applies your look to new clips.
Can I reach members who speak another language?
Yes. Captions are transcribed in 14 languages, and Translate captions turns them into another language on device.
Does the sermon upload anywhere?
No. Everything runs on the phone, and there is no account to create. Once an AI model is on the phone (or with Apple Intelligence or No AI), it works offline.
Can I plan the week's posts?
Yes. The Schedule tab has Day, Week and Month views and a reminder at each post time. Clipped does not post for you: you share the export.
Do I need permission to clip a sermon?
Your own church's sermons: no. A guest speaker: ask first. Another church's sermon: get permission.
