Your timeline sits at the base of the screen (whatever your device's orientation), while the play and scrub controls sit under your right thumb. Once you've imported the content, editing is easy thanks to the placement of each element of the interface.

You are also given the option to create new footage and photos on the fly using your device's camera – although often these don’t save straight to your creation and need to be imported. Importing media is a breeze from either the timeline or a drop down menu. What makes Video Maker Movie Editor so appealing is how simple it is. Once that’s done you can render your whole creation as a single MP4 movie file. It is also possible to import a soundtrack or add any annotations you want by tapping under the timeline. Tapping the end of each clip then allows you to add fades and transitions - hiding any shaky cam moments you don’t want to be seen. If your clip ends up in the wrong place, or you want make a few changes, all you have to do is drag it to the desired position on your timeline and drop it where you want it. So, if you only want the moment your dad falls over in your video (and not the swearing that followed) it is only a few finger swipes away. From there you are able to shorten footage to get to the exact moment you want by dragging either end of the clip to the desired length. Using a single timeline, you can drop multiple videos and images into your creation.
