To edit a clip on your phone with Cross Clip, open the app, import a supported Twitch, YouTube, or Kick clip link—or upload a video from your phone—then trim and arrange the video, choose the available compile settings, and share or download the finished clip. Cross Clip’s mobile guide describes that workflow; exact controls can vary by app version or account, so check the live app for the options available to you.

What you need before you start

  • The Cross Clip mobile app. Its guide links to the app downloads: Cross Clip’s mobile page.
  • A clip URL from Twitch, YouTube, or Kick, or a video file saved on your phone.
  • Enough time and available upload capacity to import and compile the video. Cross Clip’s plans page lists upload limits by tier; check the current terms before starting a large upload: Cross Clip plans.

Edit a clip in the Cross Clip mobile app

  1. Import a clip or video

    Open Cross Clip and paste a supported Twitch, YouTube, or Kick clip URL, or choose a video file from your phone. The app listing also describes uploading a file as part of its clip workflow. Import availability may depend on the source and the current app version.

  2. Trim and arrange the edit

    Trim the video to the section you want, then add or rearrange layers. You can start with a preset layout or begin from scratch and position content boxes as needed. Cross Clip’s documented controls cover trimming, layouts, and layers; its public descriptions do not establish support for advanced effects, captions, stickers, or transitions, so do not count on those controls unless they appear in your app.

  3. Choose compile settings

    Before compiling, select the frame rate and output resolution offered for your plan. The app listing documents 720p or 1080p output choices, while Cross Clip’s plans page specifically lists 1080p/60fps for Pro. Do not assume every resolution and frame-rate combination is available on every tier.

    #1 Best Overall
    Yojaro 4Pack Silicone Suction Phone Case Mount, Silicon Adhesive Smartphones Stand Sticky, Hands-Free Phone Accessories Holder for Selfies and Videos (Black & White & Translucent & Light Pink)
    • 【Strong Adsorption】The inspiration of the silicone phone suction case comes from the adhesive force of the octopus. Each suction cup phone mount is 3.15 inches long and 2.17 inches wide, with 24 independent suction cups providing a stronger and more stable suction force, so you don't have to worry about your phone falling during use.
    • 【Back of Phone Suction Grip】Remove the adhesive film on the phone suction cup and stick it on the phone case. You can then fix the phone on any smooth surface, which is very convenient. (The phone suction cup cannot be removed and reused after being attached to the phone case. It is recommended to attach it to a regular phone case, not a valuable one.)
    • 【Widely Used】Our non-slip silicone phone sticky grip mount attaches to almost any flat phone case and make it compatible with common mobile phones such as iPhone and Android.You can shoot, watch videos or video calls in the kitchen, gym, dance studio, bathroom and other places.
    • 【Capture the Wonderful Picture】Whether you are a TikTok creator or just like to share videos and photos, this phone suction cup can help you hands-free capture wonderful videos and photos for sharing with friends.
    • 【Note】You can fix the phone suction cup on a smooth surface such as a mirror or glass. If necessary, wipe the suction cup with a damp cloth to obtain stronger suction. Before releasing your hand, make sure the phone is firmly fixed. (Not applicable to rough walls, wooden surfaces, and other uneven surfaces)
  4. Compile, then download or share

    Compile the video in the app. Cross Clip says you can view finished clips, download or delete them, and share directly to TikTok, Instagram, or YouTube. Confirm the finished file and destination before posting; the app’s sharing options may vary by version.

Free and Pro plans: what the listed limits mean

Cross Clip’s plans page lists the following terms. Prices, upload caps, and included features can change, so check the live page before subscribing.

Apple EarPods Headphones with USB-C Plug, Wired Ear Buds with Built-in Remote to Control Music, Phone Calls, and Volume
  • SUPERIOR COMFORT — Unlike traditional circular ear buds, the design of EarPods is defined by the geometry of the ear. Which makes them more comfortable for more people than any other ear bud–style headphones.
  • HIGH-QUALITY AUDIO — The speakers inside EarPods have been engineered to maximize sound output and minimize sound loss, which means you get high-quality audio.
  • BUILT-IN REMOTE — EarPods with USB-C plug also include a built-in remote that lets you adjust the volume, control the playback of music and video, and answer or end calls with a pinch of the cord.
  • COMPATIBILITY — Works with all devices that have a USB-C port.
  • INTEGRATED MICROPHONE — A built-in microphone precisely captures your voice while you’re on the phone, taking a FaceTime call, or summoning Siri — so you’re always heard loud and clear.
Plan Listed price Listed features relevant to mobile editing
Free $0 Imports, editing, mobile sharing, and uploads up to 100 MB.
Pro $4.99 per month Watermark and outro removal, 1080p/60fps export, additional layers, priority compile queue, and uploads up to 1 GB.

These are the plan-page prices and limits, not a guarantee that an app-store purchase will show the same terms in every country. Store listings and in-app purchase options can vary by storefront and date. The US Apple App Store listing reports iOS 14.1 or later; treat that as a US storefront requirement, not a universal device rule. See the Apple App Store listing for its current details.

Cross Clip editing is different from Twitch’s mobile clip editor

Cross Clip is a separate app for arranging and compiling clips from supported sources. Twitch’s own mobile clip workflow is narrower: Twitch Help says, “You can trim and title clips during creation on mobile. Portrait clip editing is not yet available on mobile.” That distinction matters if your goal is to create a portrait layout on your phone: Cross Clip documents mobile layout editing, while Twitch’s current help page says portrait editing is not available in Twitch’s native mobile workflow. See Twitch Help: How to Create, Edit, and Share Clips. Twitch announced portrait versions and portrait-layout adjustment in its clip workflow on August 28, 2024, but the current help page’s mobile limitation is the more useful guide to what its native mobile editor supports now: Twitch’s August 28, 2024 announcement.

Problems you may run into

  • A clip link will not import: Check that it comes from Twitch, YouTube, or Kick, and try uploading the video file from your phone instead. The documented workflow does not guarantee every URL or source variation will import.
  • Your upload fails or is too large: Check the limit for your plan. The plans page lists uploads up to 100 MB on Free and up to 1 GB on Pro; verify the live limit before retrying.
  • A resolution or frame rate is missing: Available compile settings depend on the plan. The published Pro feature list names 1080p/60fps; do not infer that every tier supports it.
  • You cannot find the downloaded clip: Use Cross Clip’s in-app clip view and download controls, then check the destination your phone uses for downloaded videos. Device file locations differ, and the available documentation does not establish one universal save path.
  • You expected captions, effects, or transitions: The documented workflow establishes trimming, layer arrangement, layouts, and compile settings, but not those advanced editing features. Check the app itself or use a separate editor if you need a specific control.
