One high-profile example is called Enlight VideoLeap, which has a number of social media-ready features packed into an attractive and functional design. The problem for Android users was that the app has historically been available only for iOS, actually co-winning Apple’s own App of the Year award in 2017. Now, app-maker Lightricks has finally brought VideoLeap to the Android store, so the majority of smartphone users can now make use of its advanced editing features. Like other mobile editing suites, it focuses solely on editing tricks that can help you to wow social media audiences, so it’s not something to use to edit your next short film. On the other hand, even most professional filmmakers post videos online, and even they need a quick and powerful way to do so. After all, even Hollywood bigshots are nothing without a constant stream of online likes. Enlight Videoleap for Android puts real digital effects on your smartphone VideoLeap’s suite...
