Learn how to easily remove unwanted clips to keep your edit clean and focused in Premiere on iPhone.
Deleting clips helps you refine your story by removing mistakes, extra footage, or anything that doesn’t fit your final cut.
Scroll through the options at the bottom of the screen and tap Delete.
The clip is removed from the timeline, while the rest of your project stays intact.

The main timeline is magnetic, so when you delete a clip, the remaining clips will automatically snap together. This may affect clips or titles on overlay timelines that are positioned around the deleted clip.
