About Wondershare Filmora

Wondershare Filmora is an easy-to-use video editor for beginners and content creators. It combines a simple timeline with ready-made titles, transitions, effects, music and templates, so you can make videos for YouTube, social media or family projects without professional training.

Recent versions add many AI tools, such as automatic subtitles, background removal (smart cutout), text-to-speech and AI-generated content; some of these use AI credits.

You can use Filmora free, but exported videos carry a Filmora watermark. Paid plans remove it: monthly or yearly subscriptions, or a one-time licence that covers the version you buy. Filmora runs on Windows and Mac, with mobile apps for Android and iOS.

Frequently asked questions

Is Filmora free?
