Why Reframe Videos Before Publishing?
Every platform wants its own frame shape. A landscape clip looks wrong as a Story, and a 4:3 video leaves ugly bars in a 16:9 player.
Cropping or adding padding to match the destination lets you post the same footage everywhere without it looking broken or stretched.

Frequently asked questions
What can I do with the crop tool?
Crop to a custom size, crop to a target aspect ratio, remove black bars automatically, add padding bars, or give the video a blurred background.
Is an aspect ratio crop different from cropping to a size?
Yes. A ratio crop keeps the proportions (like 16:9 or 9:16) at any resolution, while a freeform crop lets you pick an exact width and height.
Does cropping remove pixels permanently?
Only from the output copy. The original file is never modified and stays on your device.
