Editing the length of videos in busybusy allows you to shorten videos to focus on the most important parts. This feature is available exclusively to Premium users and can be performed either during the upload process or after the video has already been uploaded to the library. This guide will walk you through the steps for both scenarios. This is a mobile specific functionality.

Good to know:

  • Videos uploaded to busybusy have a 2 minute maximum length.

  • Videos can be edited by the owner who uploaded the video or by users in positions with permission to manage photos. Learn more about that HERE.

  • Once a video length is edited in busybusy the changes are permanent. If you need the original length, you would have to re-upload the original video.

  • Once you save the changes, the edited video length is updated immediately in the photo library.
