Do I need an account to use SnipSnip?

No. An account just gives you higher limits and clip history.

How long are clips kept?

24 hours, then auto-deleted. Download before it expires.

Can I clip multiple segments from the same video?

Yes. Mark as many segments as your tier allows and they are merged into a single downloadable file.

Can I upload my own video instead of a YouTube link?

Yes. With a free or Pro account you can upload an MP4, MOV, or WebM file and trim it like a YouTube link. Upload size limits depend on your tier: 200 MB on Free and 20 GB on Pro.

What video quality is supported?

Output quality depends on your tier: up to 480p with no account, 720p with a free account, and 4K (2160p) on the Pro plan.

Can I take a screenshot of a video frame?

Yes. While previewing any video, click the camera button to capture a full-resolution JPEG of the current frame. Up to 2 screenshots per day without an account, and 1000 per day with a free account.

How much does SnipSnip cost?

SnipSnip is free to use without an account (up to 480p) or with a free account (up to 720p). The Pro plan is £5.40 per month and unlocks 4K output, clips up to 24 hours long, up to 15 clips per day, 1000 screenshots per day, 20 GB uploads, 3 clips rendering at once, priority processing, and full clip history.

Can I clip a YouTube video without downloading it?

Yes. SnipSnip trims the video server-side, so there is nothing to download or install first. Paste the YouTube URL, mark your start and end times, and download only the finished clip. It runs entirely in the browser.

Can I download just a section of a YouTube video?

Yes. Mark the exact start and end timestamps for the part you want and SnipSnip returns just that section as a downloadable clip. You can also mark several sections and merge them into one file.

Does SnipSnip add a watermark to clips?

No. Clips are trimmed losslessly with no watermark and no re-encoding artifacts, on every tier including the free one.
