VideoBlend
VideoBlend is a free video editing application for macOS, designed to make video editing accessible to users of all skill levels. It provides core editing tools such as cutting, splitting, rotating, and applying effects like blur and lighting adjustments to video files. The app also functions as a media player. It was created by the makers of PhotoScape and targets home users and casual video editors who want straightforward editing capabilities without the complexity of professional-grade software.
Suggested Replacements
1 suggestionVideoBlend version 1.4 was last updated on November 5, 2014, and the developer's website and community activity suggest the project has been effectively abandoned. There is no evidence of a native Apple Silicon build or any updates in the past decade. Because VideoBlend is no longer maintained and cannot run natively on M-series Macs without Rosetta 2, consider switching to an actively maintained video editor. DaVinci Resolve (free version available) is a professional-grade alternative that runs natively on Apple Silicon and offers powerful editing, colour correction, and effects—though it has a steeper learning curve than VideoBlend. For a more approachable free option, iMovie (included with macOS) provides simple trimming, transitions, and effects. If you need something between the two, Shotcut is a free, open-source video editor with native Apple Silicon support and a moderate feature set.
