In short

Keepers: Highlight Reel Maker takes up to 20 videos from your iPhone camera roll and cuts their strongest seconds into a vertical 9:16 reel for Reels, Shorts or Stories. It suits people who want quick short-form clips from existing footage, and all analysis and rendering happen on the device. One notable feature is a balance bar for weighting speech, faces, motion and picture quality, with cuts placed on pauses.

About

Keepers turns the clips sitting in your camera roll into a reel worth posting.

Pick up to 20 videos, the way you shot them. Keepers looks through each one on your iPhone, finds the strongest seconds and cuts them into a vertical 9:16 video, ready for Reels, Shorts and Stories. No timeline, no scrubbing, no upload.

YOU DECIDE WHAT A HIGHLIGHT IS Speech, faces, motion and picture quality pull against each other, so Keepers shows them as one bar that always adds up to 100%. Drag a boundary and the edit rebuilds instantly. Presets get you started: Balanced, Talking, Scenery, Action.

WHAT IT LOOKS FOR • Speech: moments where someone is talking, not just moments that are loud • Faces: the people you came for, filling the frame • Motion: something happening, judged against the rest of that clip • Quality: sharp, well-exposed, well-composed frames; screenshots are skipped

CUTS THAT DON'T FEEL LIKE CUTS • Every cut lands on a pause, never mid-word • Edits already in your footage are respected, never cut across • Landscape footage is cropped to vertical around the subject, not just the middle of the frame

STAY IN CONTROL Reorder the cut list by dragging, remove the cuts you don't want, and set the reel length, cut length and how much one clip may contribute. Keep filming order or put the strongest moments first.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN Analysis, editing and rendering all happen on your iPhone. Keepers has no account, no servers, no analytics and no ads, and it never connects to the internet. Your videos only leave the app when you share them.

FREE, WITH ONE OPTIONAL PURCHASE Keepers is free to use, with no limit on reels. Each reel carries a small "made with thekeepers.app" mark; a one-time purchase removes it for good. No subscription.

Available in English, Russian, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese (Brazil), Japanese, Korean and Simplified Chinese.

Requires iOS 18 or later.
