1) VLC for Android and VLC for iPhone is one of the most popular applications to see videos, which has among many functions also that of watching a video in slow motion. You can slow down any video by pressing the menu and changing the playback speed to a value below 1, up to 0.25x or even speed up to 4 times.
2) Videoshop - Video Editor is one of the best video editing apps on Android and iPhone that you can use to cut videos, add music, adjust color, create animated titles, record voiceovers and then also apply slow motion effects to any video. The best part of Videoshop is that you can only select a part of video to view it with slow motion effect.
To apply the effects in slow motion using Videoshop, touch the " Speed " button, select the part of the video to be slowed down and then adjust the speed using the slider at the top. Finally, tap the " Finish " button in the upper right corner. Once the processing is finished, the video will have its slow motion effect at the desired point.
1) Video Speed is an excellent application for Android that allows you to create accelerated or slowed down videos in an easy way, recording them or converting videos that have already been saved. The best part of the Video Speed app is that it integrates with social media apps, making it easy, therefore, to share slow motion videos on TikTok, Instagram, Snapchat, Facebook and others. The app supports all types of multimedia formats including MP4, AVI, MKV, MOV, WEBM and many others.
2) Slow Motion Video FX for Android is one of the best apps to create slow motion videos, both by recording them live and by converting existing videos. The app is quite simple to use because it does everything by itself. Just choose whether to record a video in slow motion or convert an existing one. In the first case the camera is opened, in the second case the video to be slowed is selected. You can then change the speed of the video by setting a value from 0 to 1. If you set a value greater than 1, instead of creating a slow motion video, the app will create a video hyperlapse. The slow motion videos of this application look really natural and have no flaws.
3) Slow Motion Video Maker for Android is a dedicated slow motion video app similar to other apps on this list. You can shoot videos directly from the app in slow motion mode or convert existing videos on your smartphone at variable speeds. In addition, there is also a mode for reversing the playback of a video and for removing the audio.
4) Slow Motion Video Zoom Player, for Android, allows you to play video files at reduced or accelerated speed. The good part is that with this app also the audio synchronizes with the slow motion playback in order to give a feeling of slowing down of time. The app also has support for zooming in on videos, a video to GIF converter, support for Picture-in-Picture (PiP) mode, reverse and fast playback, and more.
5) Slow Motion Frame Video Player, for Android is a simple application to watch videos in slow motion, as VLC does too.
6) Slow Motion Video Maker, for Android, has a series of functions to slow down videos or speed them up even in a cinematic way. In addition to this, there are some editing tools built into the app and filters to improve movies.
1) On iPhone you can simply use the Photos app already installed on your smartphone, where you can record slow motion videos and also edit it to choose where in the video to use this effect.
2) iMovie is another Apple application that allows you to slow down videos. Once the project has been entered, you can use the speed modulation control to slow it down by dragging the cursor towards the turtle (up to 1/8 of the original speed) or towards the rabbit (to speed it up to 2x). The slow motion effect can be applied only to a part of the video or even to the whole clip.
3) SpeedPro, for iOS, is a free and easy-to-use app to easily increase or decrease the speed of the video on iPhone or iPad.
4) Slow motion video Editor, for iPhone, is another application to add the slo-mo effect to videos, then also create time lapse and stop motion.
