Canva
Canva is a graphic design tool that works to simplify the process of digital design. The platform can be used on phones, desktop, and beyond.
Canva allows for image editing and project-based learning using a simple drag-and-drop interface that works well even for individuals with any level of experience. From brainstorming as a group working collaboratively to individual project creation, Canva is a fantastic tool to create engaging content.
Why we love it: We love the unlimited possibilities with Canva. We can create anything from reels to static posts to carousels. Video editing on Canva can be fiddly, but the results most definitely pay off. There are a variety of templates to use that are so easy to convert into other colour schemes and branding. Also, there are plenty of audios and stickers available to make reels and videos pop.
Splice
This easy-to-use app is perfect for cinematic effects, such as the ability to change or customise background videos.
Splice is easy to use, you get access to a free music library and integration with iTunes, it has all the most important basic editing features including trimming and cutting, transitions, and effects, and it has fast and simple social sharing options.
Why we love it: It is a very powerful editor which is great for intricate videos. It has some great well-known features including trendy filters, speech-to-text tools, and dynamic transition styles and effects.

InShot
InShot is another video editing app that allows you to merge clips and add filters, effects and music to deliver creative content. It has a user-friendly interface, allows you to create collages as well as edit videos and photos, and has 4k video sharing options. A small issue with InShot that we’ve found is that you cannot search for stickers in the app and the final video has a watermark. Other than that, InShot is great for editing Reels and TikTok.
Why we love it: We love InShot for the simpler videos that don’t require much editing and additions. The app has an interactive social sharing feature. This means you can share your clip on different social platforms which we love.
