KineMaster is an excellent video editing tool for smartphones. With this app, you can make your videos look almost as good as if they were edited by a professional. It offers numerous functions, from overlays to transitions, and they're all available right there on your phone.
There’s no need to turn to your PC when you want to make fantastic videos anymore. KineMaster does magic with different video formats. To learn which ones, and how to deal with unsupported formats, keep reading this article.
KineMaster is available both in the App Store and Google Play Store. It supports different video, audio, and image formats.
| Type | Supported Formats |
|---|---|
| Video | MP4, 3GP, MOV |
| Audio | WAV, MP3, M4A, AAC |
| Image | JPEG, BMP, PNG, WebP, GIF (as image only) |
When you save your video, the app exports it in MP4 format. What if your phone tells you the file format you’re trying to use is not supported? Here’s how to fix this issue.
This problem can occur when you try to upload a video to the app. If it’s in the wrong format, it won’t upload, and you won’t be able to work on it. However, before you try to fix the format issue, check if the video has the appropriate aspect ratio. If you chose, for example, 16:9, make sure the video you’re trying to upload is in the same format.
If you want to add a video that’s in a wrong format, use a third-party app to convert the video to a supported file format so you can upload it to KineMaster. Here are two recommended options:
This error is also related to an unsupported format. The app may detect your phone’s resolution incorrectly, making it incompatible with the video you’re editing. Follow these steps to solve the problem:
Before anything, ensure there’s enough space in your phone’s memory. Visit the Google Play Store to check for available KineMaster updates; an outdated version may cause problems. Additionally, avoid using screen recorders while exporting, as they can interrupt the process.
Several things may cause KineMaster to not recognize media from your phone. Here’s how to check the necessary permissions:
If issues persist, try deleting and reinstalling the app. Clearing cache, app data, and cookies could also help. You can fill in a form on the official KineMaster website for support if you can’t resolve the issue.
KineMaster is an excellent app that will make you look like a pro. However, it isn’t perfect. You may face some bugs here and there, but these fixes should help you solve the issue ASAP and continue working on your projects.
