Video is a popular form of media that allows us to capture and relive special moments in our lives. Whether it’s a family vacation, a birthday party, or a graduation ceremony, videos hold memories that we want to cherish and share with others. With the advancement of technology, we now have the ability to not only save videos, but also to save them as new clips with added effects and filters.

When it comes to saving videos, there are two main options: saving them to the Photos image & video library or saving them as files to external storage services. Let’s explore these options in more detail.

Saving videos to the Photos image & video library is a convenient way to keep your videos organized and easily accessible. When you save a video to your library, it is stored in your device’s local storage. This means that the video is readily available for viewing and editing within the Photos app. To save a video to your library, open the video in the Clips app and tap on the desired clip. Then, tap on “Save Clip” and the clip will be saved to a Clips album in your library. It’s important to note that when you save a clip to your library, it is saved without any added effects or graphics.

On the other hand, saving videos as files to external storage services provides you with more flexibility in terms of storage and sharing options. By saving a video as a file, you can choose to store it in services like iCloud Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, or even local storage. This allows you to free up space on your device while still having access to your videos whenever and wherever you need them. To save a video as a file, you can use the “Save to files” option in the Clips app. This will prompt you to choose a destination for your video file, whether it’s a specific folder in an external storage service or your device’s local storage.

It’s worth noting that saving videos as files may require an internet connection, especially if you’re using cloud storage services. Additionally, depending on the size and quality of the video, it may take some time to upload and save the video to the chosen destination. However, once saved, you can easily share the video with others by providing them with a link or by granting them access to the file.

Saving videos is a crucial step in preserving our cherished memories. Whether you choose to save videos to the Photos image & video library or as files to external storage services, it’s important to consider your storage and sharing needs. Both options offer their own advantages, so choose the one that best suits your preferences and requirements. So go ahead and start saving those precious videos, ensuring that you can relive and share those special moments for years to come.

What Does Save As New Clip Mean?

“Save as new clip” refers to a feature or action that allows you to save a video as a separate and distinct file, while preserving the original video file. When you save a video as a new clip, any changes or edits made to the video are saved in the newly created file, while the original video remains unchanged.

This functionality is useful in various situations. For instance, if you want to make edits or alterations to a video without affecting the original version, you can save it as a new clip. This allows you to experiment with different edits, apply special effects, or create different versions of the same video without the risk of losing or altering the original content.

By saving as a new clip, you can also create different versions of a video for different purposes or platforms. For example, you may want to create a shorter version of a video for social media platforms, while keeping the longer version for other uses. Saving as a new clip enables you to have multiple versions of a video, each tailored to specific requirements.

When you save a video as a new clip, it is important to note that the changes you make are saved separately from the original file. This means that any modifications or edits applied to the new clip will not affect the original video. This ensures that the original content is preserved and can be accessed or used in its original form whenever needed.

“save as new clip” is a feature that allows you to create a separate and distinct video file while retaining the original video. It is a useful functionality for making edits, applying effects, creating different versions, or experimenting with changes without altering the original video file. This feature ensures that the original content is preserved and can be accessed separately if required.

What is The Difference Between Saving a Video And Saving to Files On iPhone?

The difference between saving a video and saving to files on an iPhone lies in the location where the video is stored.

1. Saving a video: When you save a video to the Photos image & video library on your iPhone, it means that the video is stored within the device’s local storage. This library is a built-in feature of the Photos app, where all your photos and videos are stored. The video becomes accessible through the Photos app and is synced with any connected devices through iCloud, if enabled. In this case, the video is considered part of your media collection and can be easily viewed, shared, or edited using various apps.

2. Saving to files: On the other hand, saving a video to files on your iPhone means that the video is stored as a separate file within the device’s storage, such as iCloud Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, or any other storage service you have installed. This option allows you to save the video to a specific folder or location of your choice, separate from the Photos library. By saving to files, the video is treated as a standalone file that can be accessed and managed through the Files app on your iPhone. You can organize the video alongside other files and folders, and it can be easily shared or moved to different storage locations.

Saving a video to the Photos image & video library means storing it within the device’s local storage, accessible through the Photos app. Saving to files, however, allows you to store the video as a separate file in a specific location of your choice, accessible through the Files app.
