(Previous version) How to quickly add text to an iPhone video

[@garryjosemariano2897]

How about 6s models?can we add text too?thanks for your answer

[@bascombproductions]

Good question. It depends on what version of iMovie and iOS you are running. Do you know which versions? I believe this was still active a couple of years ago. Instead of using the extension as shown in the video, you could also do a quick edit in iMovie.

@@bascombproductions as i look in my setings,15.8 is the ios,

[@MStanonik]

I love those easy edits (songs, text... that's all i need) But this is not possible on new iphone
Do you know how to get this version back??🙂

[@kimberlycronen3998]

Please update this video. I used to use your instructions but after the recent update things look different. Thank you!

[@bascombproductions]

Thanks for the suggestion! I will look into this and do an update video.

Hi

[@pendletongaming]

Anyway to do this now with the new iOS software!?

[@bascombproductions]

Thanks for the heads up! I’ll look into this.

[@pendletongaming]

@@bascombproductions $10 to your PayPal if u can find me a way to do this. I don’t care if you tell me a free app that will in a great with the photos on iPad.
I need to be able to directly from my videos add text just like we used to be able to before the software update

[@MyrtleBeachbigwheel]

I know that..im trying to add letters on a video directly on camera roll if I do it on iMovie it’s gonna lose its quality ..

[@isabella-gp9wm]

how do i add my own custom text? i’m trying to add the american horror story font

[@ellas.1254]

That is the thing my more options button isnt working

[@bascombproductions]

What happens when you tap the button?

[@alishanarvaez896]

Nothing happens at all when I tap on the button. The button doesn’t respond in videos. It only responds when I tap it in Live or still photos.

[@katyantis]

Alisha Narvaez same! Nothing happens when I click on it. Only on a picture does it work, not video.

[@katyantis]

Ok as soon as I added the iMovie app, the more button started working.

[@jubilation_gamer8160]

Thanks for this!

[@bascombproductions]

You’re welcome!

[@kkp3599]

This didn’t work I do have an iPhone I went to photos app then tapped edit but mine is different my edit this game is really different I tapped more options but all there is is markup! It did not work.

[@bascombproductions]

You may need to turn on the iMovie extension.

[@nattie_ceee5989]

Can’t deal with the “music”. Had to stop at :09

[@richardcalcagno6706]

On the phone you can choose how many seconds u want it to appear and how far into the video it’s just starts from start to end

[@bascombproductions]

Did this work on the phone for you?

[@axella3659]

I can only add 1 text not 2 at all this sucks

[@bascombproductions]

Have you tried LumaFusion? You can add more than one text with it.

[@EveseveE]

Is there a way to do this without imovies?

[@bascombproductions]

Are you wanting to use a different app?

[@jubilation_gamer8160]

Hey guys this a more understanding tutorial for those who doesnt understand you have to press edit button on the top then u press the 3 dot line and click on the t and that should be it!

[@randomoxliz8800]

It’s not working

[@mysticalraven89]

Yeah this is great but people want to know how to add text to their videos at a CERTAIN TIME it’s usually to cover up mistakes or made for reclarification. A msg at the start of the video is useless

[@bascombproductions]

For something like that, I’d recommend using LumaFusion. That will give you a lot more control of timing.

[@stanfordgbilewon3024]

Fake

[@bascombproductions]

Actually, this video shows the way it used to be in a previous version. The app extension is now no longer available for this within Photos.
