Apple Ends Support for Clips, Pulls Video App From the App Store

Apple urges existing users to save projects for long-term compatibility.

Overview

  • Apple’s support page states that, as of October 10, 2025, Clips is no longer updated and is unavailable to new users in the App Store.
  • People who previously downloaded Clips can keep using it on current or earlier iOS and iPadOS versions and may redownload it from their App Store account.
  • Apple details how to export videos and individual clips to the Photos library or other locations, and it advises moving projects to iMovie or third‑party editors.
  • There is no guarantee the app will work on future OS releases beyond iOS 26, so users are encouraged to preserve their media now.
  • Introduced in 2017 with features like Live Titles, Memoji and AR/LiDAR effects, the app saw minimal recent development as platform-native and AI-driven editors gained traction.
