Video Editor & Maker - InShot: Edit Videos with AI

Video Editor & Maker - InShot is a video and photo editing application by InShot Video Editor that provides tools for trimming, merging, applying effects, and creating slideshows on Android. The app has been available since March 5, 2014, and the current version is 2.231.1551, updated on September 21, 2026. It requires Android 8.0 or later and is free to download, though it contains ads and offers in-app purchases. With more than 500 million installs and a 4.84 rating from over 24 million reviews, it is a widely used editing tool.

On the privacy side, the app requests permissions for Photos/Media/Files, Storage, Microphone, and Wi-Fi connection information. These permissions are tied to core functions: accessing media files to import clips and images, storage to save projects and exports, the microphone for voice-overs and audio recording, and Wi-Fi information likely for network-related features or ads. The app does not request access to contacts, precise location, or the camera in the listed permissions, which keeps the permission set relatively focused on editing tasks.

The update to version 2.231.1551 brings audio stickers that add sound effects to stickers, group editing for multiple tracks at once, a hair glow effect for natural shine, and general bug fixes. These additions build on the app's existing AI tools such as auto captions, AI speech, background removal, and smart tracking, as well as its photo editor and collage maker features. Users should review the permissions during installation and adjust them in system settings if certain access is not needed.

Key features

• AI-powered auto captions for speech-to-text subtitles
• AI speech for text-to-speech with multiple accents and voices
• One-tap background removal for videos and photos
• Smart tracking to sync stickers and text with moving objects
• Smooth slow-motion and speed ramping controls
