Frequently asked questions

Why does reversing video take longer than other tools?

Reversing a video requires reading every single frame into memory and writing them back out in reverse order. Unlike trimming or muting — which just copy data — reversal has to decode, reorder, and re-encode the entire clip. Longer clips take proportionally longer. Trimming to just the section you need will significantly speed things up.

Is my video uploaded to a server?

No — everything runs locally in your browser using WebAssembly (FFmpeg.wasm). Your video never leaves your device and no data is stored or transmitted anywhere.

What does "reverse audio too" sound like?

Reversed audio produces the classic backwards speech effect — think of a record played in reverse. It sounds eerie and unrecognizable on speech, but can create interesting musical effects on music clips. Most creators simply mute the audio when reversing for social media use.

Will the reversed video loop smoothly with the original?

This tool produces the reversed clip as a standalone file. To create a boomerang-style loop (forward then backward), you would combine this reversed clip with the original using the Merge Videos tool.

What's the maximum video length I can reverse?

There's no hard limit, but reversing is memory-intensive. In practice, clips under 60 seconds work reliably on most devices. Very long or high-resolution clips may hit browser memory limits — if this happens, trim to a shorter segment first.

Which browsers are supported?

The Video Reverser works in any modern browser supporting WebAssembly and SharedArrayBuffer: Chrome 92+, Edge 92+, Firefox 90+, and Safari 15.2+.
