YouTube on Android lets you trim your videos before you upload

If you wanted to upload a video from your Android device to YouTube before, you would need to upload the entire clip. Now, YouTube is making it easier for you to take out that awkward beginning or ending pre-upload. You can now trim videos on the Android version of the app. It features two control points and you can trim almost up to 1/30th of a second. Just hold down on either of the control points and it’ll zoom in for you and let you trim almost frame by frame. It isn’t available yet on the iOS version of the app but we should be seeing that in the future.
