The camera
Cuts has its own camera, built for talking to a phone:
- Segments — record in takes; they land on a strip, in order. Stop, breathe, keep going.
- Front or rear — with flash and torch where the hardware has them.
- Record delay — 0, 3, or 10 seconds to get into position.
- Quality panel — up to 4K.
The teleprompter
The camera has a teleprompter overlay: your script scrolls over the lens while you read. It auto-scrolls, you can edit it in place, and Cuts can write it for you — ask for a script in chat and it arrives in the prompter. See Cuts, the agent.
The voice recorder
For voiceovers: a live waveform, the teleprompter, and on-device noise cleanup before the recording lands on your speech track. More in Speech & captions.
Importing
Bring footage from your Photos library, and audio from Files — formats in Music.
Permissions
Cuts asks for access when you first need it, not at the door:
- Camera — to record video for your project.
- Microphone — to record audio with your video.
- Photos (add only) — to save your exported videos. Importing goes through the system picker, so Cuts never needs access to your whole library.
- Notifications — only if you ask Cuts to follow up. See The plan.
