Video To Reel is a mobile app for turning talks, podcasts, and interviews into short vertical clips. It accepts MP4, MOV, or MKV files from a device, transcribes videos, selects moments, reframes them, adds word-timed captions, and renders clips at 1080p. SpeakerLock tracks the speaking face within a 9:16 frame and smooths its movement to reduce jitter. Captions have three styles and nine positions, and users can remake an individual clip after changing its settings. Finished clips can be saved to the camera roll or shared to TikTok, Reels, or Shorts; the app does not publish directly to social platforms. The free plan costs 0.00 USD per free and permits one video per month, up to 15 minutes, with three watermarked clips kept for seven days. Paid plans increase monthly source minutes and upload-length limits. Uploaded source video and intermediate files are deleted when rendering finishes. The maker says transfers use TLS, uploads are separated by account, and clips are delivered through expiring private links.
Who it is for
Video To Reel suits people who want to turn talks, podcasts, or interviews into shareable short clips on Android or iOS. It is aimed at workflows where users upload a video and then save or share the resulting clips.
