StoryChop

Split a video for stories without re-encoding a single frame.

A video splitter that cuts losslessly. Because it uses passthrough rather than re-encoding, a long clip becomes story-length segments in seconds with no quality loss, no watermark and no upload.

Splitting a video for stories usually means re-encoding it, which costs minutes of battery and a visible generation of quality. StoryChop uses AVFoundation passthrough instead: the container is rewritten around the existing encoded frames, so the operation is close to a file copy and the output is bit-identical in quality to the source.

Verified, not assumed

A ninety-five second source is split and the resulting files are measured: 30.00, 30.00, 30.00 and 5.00 seconds, present in the camera roll. Durations are asserted from the exported assets rather than from what the UI claimed it did.

Capabilities

Lossless passthrough

Segments are cut without re-encoding, so quality is preserved and the operation takes seconds.

Exact segment lengths

Durations are measured on the exported files, not estimated from the timeline.

No watermark

Nothing is branded onto the output.

Fully offline

Video never leaves the device.

Screens

What it looks like in use.

Select any screen to view it full size. Use the arrow keys to move between screens and Escape to close.

  • Pick a source clip from the library.
  • Choose the segment length; the split is planned before anything is written.
  • Segments land in the camera roll at exact durations, with no re-encode.
