Online Video Trimmer: 6 Free Sites to Trim Videos

By FonePaw | May 22 , 2019

You can trim a video online. By using an online video trimmer, you can cut video without downloading additional software. More importantly, most online video cutters are free to use.

 

Although an online video trimmer is convenient, there are downsides about cutting a video online: 1) Online video cutters tend to watermark videos after shortening the videos; 2) It requires a stable network connection to trim videos online. When the internet connection is slow, the video trimmer online may fail to save or download the trimmed video files. If you want to trim videos more efficiently or further edit the videos(add subtitles, crop, rotate, merge, add transition/animation effects, etc.), get a desktop video editor.

It is a bummer that the video cutter doesn't enable you to preview the video. You have to remember where you want to trim the video before uploading. And there is no way to preview the trimmed video.

  • Supported video format: MP4,AVI,FLV,MPG,MKV,WMV,M2TS,WEBM,ASF,MOV,M4V,RM,VOB or OGV.
  • Maximum video size: 200M.

 

6. Wincreator Video Cutter

Wincreator can not cut video online, but also convert videos to MP3, GIF or download YouTube videos. It is easy-to-use but it can only trim videos no larger than 50M. This is a great drawback as many video files are larger than 50MB.

 

To use the online video trimmer, click Choose File to select the video you want to trim. Then it will take a while for the trimmer to upload the video and prepare for cutting.

 

When the uploading is complete, you can mark the start and end points of the video to cut the video and remove unneeded parts. Then you may save the trimmed video.

Online video trimmers can come to handy when you want to shorten a video or cut out unneeded part. However, as there are video size limit and network connection requirement, a desktop video trimmer is a more reasonable choice.
