YouTube Create is a free video editing app by YouTube that anybody can use to edit short and long videos right on their phone. This came as a response to TikTok releasing their own video editing app, CapCut. Now, you can also edit videos without any problems on your phone using YouTube Create. It comes with all the tools that you need to create and publish videos to your channel without any watermark.
For now, YouTube Create is in beta and is only available to Android users. It already has some amazing features that will appeal to the users who edit videos on their mobile. It will also have some AI features such as background noise removal and captions generator. For vloggers, these options are going to be very useful. You can create unlimited video projects and export them without a watermark.
There are numerous video editing apps available for mobile already. The problem is that for free, they leave a watermark or ask you to pay for subscription for some features. But YouTube Create app will be free and i am sure it will stay free along with all of its features.

Now, let’s see how to use this app to quickly edit a video and export it without watermark.
Using YouTube Create to Edit Videos on your Phone:
YouTube Create app as of now is available in 8 regions. If you are in one then you can search and install from the Play Store. However, the iPhone version is not available anywhere and it may arrive later or next year.
So, when you install and login, you will reach the main UI from where you can simply create a new project to get started. Next, you just import a video file from the gallery to start editing it.
The very first thing you can explore is Filters. So, select the option and a pop-up will appear asking you to choose one. You can preview them one by one and if you like something then you can apply it.
Similarly, you access the Effects and then apply them on the whole video or a specific part. You are given a time-line here from where you can control the timing of effects and filters.
Want to add some cool and stylish text over the video? Simply find something in the Text sections. Here you will see some really amazing text styles and fonts. You can select the one you like and then add anywhere in the video.
One of the main aspects of video editing tools is transitions. You can find some of the most common ones in the library. Select any transition and add it between any two consecutive clips. YouTube Create allows you to specifically enter the start and end time for it.
Adding audio and music tracks to the videos only takes a few taps. The royalty free audio tracks can be added to monetized video channels. The license is a YouTube Audio Library License.
In the audio editing aspects, you can also opt to remove the background noise from the entire audio clip. Just tap on the “Audio cleanup” option and wait for a few seconds. It might take some time as it depends on the length of the audio.
If you have knowledge of video editing then just keep editing your video in your own way. When it is ready, simply choose the resolution, orientation, and export it. The option to export the video appears form the menu on the top right side.
This is pretty much the video editing workflow when using the YouTube Create app. Create and edit videos professionally and then export them without a watermark.
Closing:
In my genuine opinion YouTube Create offers almost everything that anyone could expect from a video editing app. For being free, it is actually offering a lot that others don’t offer yet. With the current feature set, it is safe to say that it can be added to the list of top 10 free video editing apps for Android. If you are a YouTube creator and have some knowledge of video editing then I would say this is a must have app that you should be having. And if you think otherwise, then you can always let me know.
