The iPhone app for talking-head videos
You record. YapCuts edits. You post.
Talk to the camera the way you normally would. YapCuts cuts the retakes, pauses and ums, adds captions in your style, and gives you a video that's ready to post.
How it cuts
Trip over a line? Just say it again.
RetakeSo the easiest way to, um…
So the easiest way to post more is to stop editing.

Here's how I do it.
YapCuts keeps the take you finished and drops the one you stumbled on. Pauses and ums go too, and you can put any of them back.
Why editing takes so long
Most of editing is searching.
Filming a two-minute video takes two minutes. Then you scrub back and forth for the take where you didn't stumble, trim every pause and type the captions out word by word. That's where your evening goes.
YapCuts does the searching for you. You just check what it found.
