Best Slow Motion Video Apps

1. Slow Motion Video FX

Slow Motion Video FX is a fully featured app created only for creating / recording slow motion or fast motion videos. It is an ad supported app with a pro version that will just remove the ads. The ads are also not that much annoying and there is no watermark on the created video. The pro version should only be bought if you really hate ads or want to donate for the good cause.

The app is very simple to use and you can both record a new video and make it slow/fast motion video or make an already recorded video slow/fast. All you need to do is select the video (whether new or old) and set how  much slow/fast it will be. A video can be slowed by almost half of its original speed or can be made 5x faster.

You can also cut a specific part of a video to only slow/fast that specific part of the video. The app will create a copy of a video that will be in slow/fast motion, the original video will stay untouched. The whole creating process may take few minutes depending on video size and quality.

When you are done, you can also share the video right from the app to your social networks for friends to see. However, it should be noted that the audio of the slowed video may not be as good as you may expect, but it is good enough to understand.

2. SloPro

SloPro is another great slow/fast motion video recording app that only focus on this feature. The app is perfect with features better than Slow Motion Video FX, but the free version adds watermark to the video. If you have no problem with the watermark, then it is a great free slow/fast motion video app for you. Otherwise, it is better to invest and get some amazing features.

The main reason why SloPro is so interesting is because it will let you make a video slow or fast in real-time. You don’t have to specify a speed and a part of a video to make it slow/fast. You can just play the video and start selecting speed of your choice to make a part of video slow/fast. You can change speed while the video is playing, and that speed will be added to the video.

There are total six speeds you can choose, three fast and three slow. So it doesn’t offer many speed adjustment options, but this also makes the process easier for an average user.

You can also share the video over social media networks, but the watermark will still be there if you are using the free version.

You will not have to worry about searching for the video in your phone.

Just select the video which you would like to edit and you will be prompted to specify the area which you would like to make slow/fast. Unlike Slow Motion Video FX, this app will not trim the part automatically. The whole video will be processed and only the specified area will be slow/fast.

Just provide the speed and tap on “OK” to start the process. The app will take some time to create the video (more than average slow/fast motion video apps) and you can then review it afterwards.

    Hi there
    Am interested in the Android options for slow motion video playback. The apps seem to refer to android phones, and I am unsure if the same apps will run on my Samsung Galaxy Tab S2?
    Thank you
    Cheers
