Editing a video by trimming or adding audio is fairly simple on Galaxy devices, but if you want to include other clips or transition animations and really get those creative juices flowing, you might find the standard editing tools limited—unless you know how to unlock Samsung's hidden video editor.

Allowing you to split and splice video, as well as add text overlays, music, and narration, this tool from Samsung is something you'll want to have on your Galaxy device for sure.

How to Unlock the Galaxy Video Editor

Unlocking Samsung's Video Editor is a very simple process. Just open a video, select Editor, then tap Video Editor. Once you do, you'll be prompted to install Video Editor from the Samsung Galaxy Apps store.

It may take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with the new tools and layout, but once you do, the editor should help you step up your game and create some awesome videos.

Adding Effects to a Clip

To add effects to a clip, just tap on the individual clip and hit Effects. You can then scroll down through the various filters available to you.
