Adjust the Sequence of Clips

Fortunately, doing that in Filmora for Mobile is effortless, and you can quickly create the narrative you’ve envisioned by adjusting the sequence of clips. Let’s learn how.

Adjust the Sequence of Clips in the Timeline

Once you’re inside Filmora’s Work Area, the clips you want to rearrange will be in the Timeline, regardless of whether you’ve imported multiple videos or cut one lengthier clip into numerous short segments. You can adjust their sequence by following this short guide:

1. Scroll the Timeline and find a clip you want to move. Then, press on it and hold.
