How do I cut a part out of a video?

Drag the left handle to where the part you want begins and the right handle to where it ends – the preview jumps to each point so you can see it – then press "Trim video". For frame-accurate cuts, pause the player on the right frame and press "Use current time".

Does trimming lower the quality?

Not noticeably. Where the video can be copied it isn't re-encoded at all; otherwise it's re-encoded at high quality. Choose "Keep original" under More options → Quality for the fastest, closest-to-original result.

Can I remove the sound as well?

Yes – tick "Remove the sound" under More options. That's handy for clips you want to put music under, or to share a recording without background noise.

A free video trimmer that works in your browser. Drop a video, drag the two handles – or type the exact start and end in seconds, or jump to the playing frame with "Use current time" – and save just that part. The clip keeps its original format and quality: when possible the video is copied rather than re-encoded, so it's quick. "More options" lets you remove the sound, change the resolution or frame rate, crop, rotate or save as another format. Online trimmers upload the whole file, cap its size and often stamp a watermark on the result; here the whole job happens on your device.
