When choosing between a free and paid iPhone video editor, check what the exported file includes. In Vyra, new mobile accounts currently receive 100 free credits, and free exports are 720p with a watermark. Plus and Pro subscriptions are available in the App Store for additional capabilities and limits.
Downloading an app for free does not tell you whether your finished video can be exported without a watermark. Check that before building a project around an output you need for a client or a launch.
Check the actual restrictions
| Question | Vyra on iPhone |
|---|---|
| Is the app free to download? | Yes |
| What do new accounts get? | Currently 100 free credits |
| What do free exports look like? | 720p with a watermark |
| Are paid plans available? | Plus and Pro in the App Store |
| Can paid exports be watermark-free? | The App Store listing describes watermark-free exports on paid subscriptions |
| Is this the same as the web trial? | No. Web has a separate 3-day trial and no ongoing free tier |
Use the current plan screen in the app for pricing, included credits and export options. Do not use a web MCP price as the price of an iPhone subscription.
Try a small project first
Use footage that resembles the work you actually plan to make. If you mainly edit talking clips, try one with your normal recording setup. If you film art, include a process shot and the finished piece.
Check the draft, make a follow-up change and export. That tells you whether the workflow fits before you bring in a much larger project. A short successful test is more useful than a feature list you have not tried.
Decide when paying helps
A paid plan may make sense when the free export restrictions do not fit the work or you need more of the included resources. Choose based on the current plan details and the projects you will actually finish. There is no need to assume the most expensive plan is the right one.
FAQ
Are 100 credits unlimited free editing?
No. A starting credit balance is a finite allowance. Check how the app reports your remaining credits and the current plan limits.
Can I remove the watermark on a free export?
Free mobile exports currently include a watermark. The App Store listing describes watermark-free exports with paid mobile subscriptions.
Does the web app have the same free plan?
No. The web app has a 3-day trial and no ongoing free tier. The mobile starting credits and export restrictions are separate.
Where should I check the iPhone subscription price?
Check the plan shown inside the app and the App Store subscription information for your region.
