Kurto

Video cutter & joiner

Trim a video, cut out the parts you don't want, or join several clips into one. Whenever it can, Kurto copies the video instead of re-compressing it, and it tells you before you save.

What it does

01

Cut out any part

Split the timeline wherever you like and remove the boring or shaky bits, or someone who shouldn't be in it. Removed parts stay visible, so you can bring them back.

02

No quality loss

A part that starts on a keyframe is copied as it is, not re-compressed. The save sheet says "No quality loss" before you save, and the saved screen says what really happened.

03

Exact cuts

A cut between keyframes stays exactly where you put it. Or move it to the keyframe just before, to copy everything; the app says how far.

04

Join clips

Put up to 20 videos together, in any order, each trimmed first. Clips from the same phone are joined without quality loss; if one differs, the app tells you which and why.

05

Rotate and remove sound

Turn a sideways video the right way up and drop its sound. On a copied video, rotating only changes its orientation flag.

06

Precise controls

Step frame by frame, type a time to the hundredth of a second, pinch to zoom the timeline, and play the result before you save.

Three steps

  1. Pick a video

    One to cut, or several to join, from your gallery, or share them straight in from another app.

  2. Cut and join

    Trim the ends, split and remove parts, put clips in order. Undo any step.

  3. Save or share

    The MP4 is saved to Movies/Kurto in the background. Play it or share it.

Privacy

  • Videos are cut and joined on your phone. They are never uploaded.
  • Your original videos are never changed.
  • Saved videos keep the original's date; the location is removed.
  • The free version shows ads from Google AdMob, which collects some data. You can change your ad choices in Settings.

Are my videos uploaded?

No. Everything happens on your phone, and your originals stay as they were.

What does "no quality loss" mean?

The video is copied piece by piece instead of being decoded and compressed again, so the picture is exactly the original. It's possible when each part starts on a keyframe; the save sheet tells you before you save.

Why was my join re-made?

Clips can only be joined by copying when they were recorded the same way: the same size, orientation and format. The app names the clip that differs, and makes the joined video again at the original quality.

Is there a watermark?

No. There's no watermark and no limit, in the free version too.
