Features
Final Cut Pro for iPad introduces an all-new touch interface and intuitive tools — unlocking new workflows for video creators. Users can interact with content in completely new ways by navigating with the Magnetic Timeline, moving clips, and making fast frame-accurate edits with just the tap of a finger. Here are the top features of this Pro app for Apple tablets.
Live Drawing: Users can draw and write directly on top of video content using Apple Pencil. On iPad Pro with M2, Apple Pencil hover unlocks the ability for users to quickly skim and preview footage without ever touching the screen. They can also speed up their workflows by adding a Magic Keyboard or Smart Keyboard Folio to utilize key commands
Pro Camera Mode: Video creators can shoot high-quality video in portrait or landscape orientation, monitor audio and available recording time, and manually control settings like focus, exposure, and white balance. Creators can capture, edit, and publish from a single device while in the field, and on iPad Pro with M2, users can even record in ProRes.

Scene Removal Mask: Creators can quickly remove or replace the background behind a subject in a clip without using a green screen.
Auto Crop adjusts: Auto Crop adjusts footage for vertical, square, and other aspect ratios.
Voice Isolation: Background noise can easily be removed from audio captured in the field.
Multicam Video Editing: With Multicam video editing, clips can automatically be synchronized and edited together. Users can even switch angles in a multicam clip with just the touch of a finger.
