For quite a while the dev team was sceptical about the idea of bringing the app to such a diverse platform as Android but in October 2021, LumaTouch, the makers of LumaFusion, eventually announced that an Android/ChromeOS version is in the works. Particularly on an iPad, the app is a pleasure to use and full of pro tools and advanced features. LumaFusion started out on Apple’s iOS in 2016 and has long been the cause of great envy among Android users interested in editing video on their devices. I would even dare to say that it’s a charming throwback to the days before digital non-linear editing when the process of cutting and splicing actual film strips had a very tactile nature to it. While it’s true that there definitely are limitations and I probably wouldn’t consider editing a feature-length movie that way, there’s also an undeniable fascination about the fact that it’s actually doable and can also be a lot of fun.
Some might question the validity of editing video on such a relatively small screen as that of a smartphone (even though screen sizes have increased drastically over the last years). The very basic common ground for all these mobile video editing apps mentioned here is that they allow you to combine multiple video clips into a timeline and arrange them in a desired order. So I recently figured there’s been enough pondering on this subject and I should just start writing something. Ever since I started this blog, I wanted to write an article about my favorite video editing apps on Android but I could never decide on how to go about it, whether to write a separate in-depth article on each of them, a really long one on all of them or a more condensed one without too much detail or workflow explanations, more of an overview.
