How to Edit a Gaming Clip
Open a clip in the editor
Right after you clip, Medal opens the built-in editor automatically. Or pick any clip from your library and hit edit - on PC or in the mobile app.
Trim to the good part
Drag the timeline handles to cut the clip down to the exact moment. No exporting, no re-encoding - the trim happens instantly.
Add text and stickers
Drop on captions, reaction text, and stickers to give the clip personality. Slow-mo the outplay or speed up the boring parts in a couple of taps.
Share or export
Hit share for an instant link that plays inline on Discord, or crop to vertical and post straight to TikTok and YouTube Shorts. No watermark.
What the Medal Clip Editor Can Do
Everything you need to turn a raw clip into something worth posting - without exporting to another app.
Trim and slow-mo
Cut a clip down to the exact moment and add slow-motion to the play that deserves it. The fast, no-export editing that makes a raw clip feel finished.
Text and captions
Add titles, reaction text, and captions so the clip lands even with the sound off - the way most clips get watched on a feed.
Stickers
Drop stickers onto your clip for reactions, callouts, and personality. A quick way to make a highlight feel like yours before you post it.
Vertical crop for Shorts
Crop any clip to vertical 9:16 so it is ready for TikTok, Reels, and YouTube Shorts without re-editing in a separate app.
Adding Text and Stickers
Captions and stickers are what make a clip feel like yours. Drop them on, reposition, resize, and your highlight is ready to post - no design skills needed.

Why Edit in Medal Instead of a Separate App
Most clipping setups make you record in one tool, edit in another, and upload somewhere else. Medal collapses all three into one app - the clip you just captured is already open in the editor, and one tap later it has a share link.
That speed matters most for the clips you actually want to post. For longer montages and timeline-heavy projects, a desktop editor still wins - in that case, grab your raw footage from gaming clips for edits and cut it there. For everything else, the built-in editor is faster.
