Does anyone use iMovie on their iPhone (or iPad for that matter...)?
I used iMovie on the iMac many times (Final Cut Pro X nowadays - love it for my hobby-stuff), and have tried iMovie for iOS but I can't get used to torturing myself.
I assume "clips" is more on-the-fly fun movie-editing-fun.
Ok. Got the idea. Good point.Does anyone use iMovie on their iPhone (or iPad for that matter...)?

I use iMovie just to show Android users how much cooler is iOS however I only play those demo trailers... I never actually used it
))So yes... good point!
This is augmented reality v0.9. They are testing the waters with an app they can put out now, to help build and gauge user's interest in AR prior to the big reveal rumored for their next iPhone.
I'm very interested to see what they put in the next iOS version that is required for this app to work.
Good for you sir, please don't change!!!!

You use a specific app to show a restrictive locked down OS is cool? Mmm. Interesting, I'd rather show functional features that allow ease of use however you want to use it, not how the vendor wants you to use it to show how cool the OS is. But hey ho..
Like Apple, we/they have no clue

It's for the kids Pro sector. I totally agree with you. They need to elevate their OS and put more energy in maps, Siri, iCloud and what not. They're lagging on all fronts and than come up with this and a new color phone... embarrassing is polite.
The app looks fine. For quick on-the-fly videos that you'll post to social media, it'll work. Instagram might swoop in and copy it soon, and when they do their thing, it's usually here to stay. Snapchat stories was a gimmick, until Instagram started their own stories.
Still waiting for a decent video app that is somewhere between iMovie and FCPX that will allow me to timely cut simple booth interviews without all the kludges and workarounds. Something that takes advantage of that "desktop power" in my 12.9 iPad Pro.
But instead... we get, "Clips" for the kiddies. *sigh*

Those girls don't understand how much heat 7200+ drives put out (compared to 5400) and the challenges in venting that kind of heat in a device like an iMac.
I guess they also don't understand that if they don't want 5400 rpm drives, they could get ones with Fusion drives or, like I've done, all SSD.
The iMac has lots of options. If they're complaining about 5400 rpm drives, they're just looking for things to complain about.
I see Vertical Video Syndrome has been solved. Just make square videos!
This actually looks like a clever little app. Not sure why you would want what you are saying typed on the video though. Unless the recipient is hard of hearing, or maybe sick of your voice!

What's upsetting is that when I read your post, the idea of Instagram copying was so nonchalant in my mind.
Since the Apple under Cook, so far at least, seems to have a hard time 'shining' with new and exciting products, they must resort to other means of raking in the profits the shareholders have become used to, failing which Tim might find himself looking for employment.
To wit, AppleMusic, Watch bands, confusing product fragmentation, unrealistic pricing on the late 2016 MBP, increased need for pricey adapters and dongles (why no longer an included ext. power cord with laptops?), iMessage stickers, and now 'Clips'. Sad really to see this 'nickel-and-diming' and apparent loss of focus on core products.
Smart Sharing sounds pretty cool. I would think you'd turn the phone in landscape and it'd let you shoot a video in standard mode.
Just FYI, I have a 2009 iMac with an internal 7200 RPM drive from Apple.
So just like "Photos" replaced Aperture, This will replace Final Cut Pro.
I'm half way serious. Apple has been dumbing down their software across the board from word processors to photo editing. I wonder about the future of FCP. These kinds of apps seem to be what Apple is all abut now, writes for the bottom end of the market.

At one time Apple made software for professionals that really was good. Then someone at Apple figured out for for every person how makes videos or records music there at 100,000 people who "consume" the product. So, figures Mr. Cook the bean counter, why not sell to the 100,000 and ignore that one person who makes the stuff.
So we get a video version of Photo Booth likely to replace both iMovie and Final Cut.
It's sad to see Apple's new strategy unfold. It really started when Apple found they were selling more phones than computers, then they dropped Aperture and brought out Photos. It was obvious what was happening, they were dumbing down their product line to go for the mass market
I use it to show how Apple approached the Movie Making concept. No worries, I show the whole OS concept.
To run Xcode you don't need a high spec device. My 2013 MacBook Air runs it just fine. It may be a bit slow in creating the build but I bought top of the line back then and it's still awesome.
The 2009 model also had a significantly thicker profile, edge to edge, than the current species of iMacs. A lot more opportunity to move air around. The modern iMacs are much thinner, more tightly packed.
The whole OS concept you say, is it just a 10 second movie then... click on app icon.. OPEN!! OS demo finished!!!! LolI use it to show how Apple approached the Movie Making concept. No worries, I show the whole OS concept.
something like that
It's the same on Android though.
click
open
crash
You are so right my friend, just do us a favour, move all the app icons from the home page just leaving a blank wallpaper, shouldn't be too hard now should it?? What's that, you can't, as the only thing the OS does is launch apps and is not really what you'd call a full blown OS, no bother.. ;-)
And just for a bit of banter, enjoy the read...
