Really awesome article I love these video editors
Cheers Asad
Cheat, only Online Video Cutter is free. The others has a price plan!
I agree! The article states “Top FREE Video Editors” and this is just a scam!
Excellent article. Thank you for sharing and your time & knowledge. One tiny constructive criticism on the description for #3: “have began” (in my understanding) may be improper English grammar… Either: “it began” or “it has begun” that little (past-tense) helper verb, in between, dictates that you use “begun”.
Nonetheless: I will be trying out the Online Video Cutter today. Thank you, again.
All these editing programs has a price plan. Only online video cutter is free, but I don’t need her…
wevideo is a website that i have been using to edit my youtube videos and it has not been very useful. not something that i would use that much
Thanks for the article but most of them are not free. The Online video editors that are completely free and that I’ve tried are Canva (https://www.canva.com/) and Wideo (https://wideo.co/online-video-editor/).
Do you know them?
I like wevideo because it is easy and fast to edit
that is money
