**Welcome to the MbaguMedia Podcast!** Dive into this week’s top deals and tech buzz as we unpack why the AirPods 4 and Lego’s brick-ified Grogu are the steals of the week. But that’s not all—we’re also bidding farewell to an era as Apple officially retires its once-promising Clips app.
Back in 2017, Clips burst onto the scene as Apple’s playful tool for creating quick, social-ready video content. With features like Live Titles and innovative AR effects, it aimed to bring professional-level video editing to everyday users and social media enthusiasts. Over time, Clips became known for its user-friendly interface and its ability to transform mundane video snippets into something truly engaging.
However, as we explore in today’s episode, the app’s journey took a turn as new players like Instagram and TikTok began to dominate the social video space. Despite incremental updates, Clips struggled to keep pace with the seamless, in-app editing experiences that these platforms offered. This shift in the digital landscape ultimately led to Apple’s decision to pull the plug on Clips, effective October 10, 2025.
If you’re an existing user, don’t worry—your app will continue to work on current devices. But we strongly advise backing up your projects to avoid any future data loss. Meanwhile, the demand for intuitive video creation tools is higher than ever. As we discuss, the discontinuation of Clips opens the door for new innovations in mobile video editing, possibly hinting at Apple’s next move in this ever-evolving space.
Join us to reminisce about Clips’ groundbreaking features and speculate on the future of mobile video editing. Don’t forget to subscribe to the MbaguMedia Podcast so you never miss a blog or episode. Let’s keep the conversation going about the tools we use to share our stories in this digital age!
