Description
ByteWave is a free, GPU-powered video editor for iOS. Edit photos/videos, mix layered audio, and create real-time Metal effects. Everything stays on your device. No watermarks. No subscriptions.
Super Resolution upscaling, Motion Blur, Temporal Noise Reduction, and a full filter library. Create Metal-powered effects with the custom Shader Editor. Everything renders on-device in real time.
Post videos to your feed, send them directly to friends, and discover what others are creating. An optional personalized algorithm can help recommend posts. It lives on your device, you can edit or delete it anytime, and your interests never leave your phone.
The video editor works in airplane mode. Video tagging and feed recommendations are off by default and require creating a profile and opting in.
