Today’s quick tech tip….
Q&A: What’s a good free app for combining multiple videos into one?
Question from Lisa: I take lots of short videos with my phone and I’d like to combine some of them to make several longer videos.
I’ve used a couple of online tools to do it in the past, but I’d really like to try using some type of app on my Windows computer to do it.
I know there are plenty of commercial video editing apps that can do this, but all I need is something to combine the short videos into one. I don’t really need or want anything I have to pay for if I can help it.
Can you recommend a good video combiner app that doesn’t cost anything?
Rick’s answer: I’ll be happy to recommend an app for you, Lisa. And you’ll never guess the name… It’s Video Combiner!
While this app isn’t a full-blown video editor, it does an excellent job at the very task you’re wanting to use it for – hence the name.
I recommend that you download it and give it a try.
