How to put more than 9 videos in one collage
Nine frames is about as much as a phone screen can show at once. But a trip, a season or a whole year has more than nine moments. The answer is to let each frame play several clips in a row: four frames with five clips each make a 20-clip recap that still reads on a phone.
Step by step
Start a collage
Open Video Grid Collage (free on the App Store), pick a layout or a template and add the first clip for each frame.
Find the frame's row
On the timeline, every frame of the layout has its own row in the Layout section, holding the clips that frame plays.
Add more clips to a frame
Tap the round + button at the end of the row and pick videos or photos. They're added after the last clip in that frame and play one after another.
Reorder and trim
Press and hold a clip on the timeline and drag it to change the order — or onto another frame's row to move it there. Tap a clip and drag its ends to trim it, or use Split to cut it at the playhead.
Even out the frames
The video lasts as long as the longest frame. A frame that runs out of clips shows the background until the end, so give every frame about the same total length — or pick a background color or photo under Background.
Export
Export in up to 4K at 60 fps. All the frames play together, each one running through its own clips.
Tips for collages with many clips
- Trimming or deleting a clip leaves a gap in its frame: drag the next clip back — clips snap to each other's edges.
- Short clips work best: three to five seconds each keeps every frame moving.
- Recap idea: one frame per month, week or person, each playing its own clips in a row.
- A clip added to an empty frame of an animated template takes over that frame's animation.
