Recently, while on the road with my OnePlus 3 (which has a great camera), I missed the Samsung Galaxy S7 that I had a few months ago. The only reason behind that is the video cropping mode which is a part of Samsung cameras. While collages are pretty common these days, the Samsung camera actually lets you record a collage and then play it all at once after stitching them together. I’m not sure if you’ve seen any on Instagram, but they look absolutely amazing.

However, it’s a built-in feature of the Samsung Galaxy S7, and when I got home (with OnePlus 3), it was time to find an app for that. Now the point is, there are quite a few apps that claim to do the task, but only a few can accomplish what I’m looking for. So let’s have a look at them. If you’d rather watch videos than read articles to see apps in action, we’ve made an app for you.
1. PicPlayPost
The first app that you can try is PicPlayPost. The app is free to download, however, the first time you launch the app, it will give you the option of an in-app purchase to remove ads and watermarks from processed videos. While there is plenty of time for that, now is the time to see how the app works. The first thing you will be asked to do is choose a frame style and you have many options to choose from, including the aspect ratio of the video. From its interface, you can stitch up to 6 videos to create a collage.
Having done that, the next thing you will have to do is import videos from the library. You can also provide background music and stills along with the video, and that will work, too. If things don’t fit, drag the video inside the frame and zoom in or out. You can also tilt them if you like.
Finally, once everything is set up, you can preview the work and if you like what you see, just hit the share button to share it on Facebook, Instagram or any social media platform. other. Tapping the gallery option will save it to your device’s internal storage.
If you ever face any problem while importing videos, you can open the settings and choose the option Change Video Codec. Here you can import a sample video from your camera and then wait for the app to import the codec for future use. Here you can also purchase the full version of the app and get the ad-free, watermark-free video interface.
2. Video Collage
The second app you should try is Video Collage and the biggest advantage you get with this app is that you don’t have a watermark on the processed video even in the free version. There are ads, but nothing you can’t live with to support the developers. The only thing missing here is that you don’t have the option to trim and edit the videos and they will be imported as-is. So you will have to live with the pre-existing videos or use an external editor to trim them.
In the app, you can add photos and background music, and there’s also text and sticker support to make videos more eye-catching. It is very easy to work with these additional elements and place them on the video.
What the anther is missing when compared to the previous app is the option to choose a frame with a different aspect ratio. You only get square frames but they have some nice styling. The rendering process also takes a bit longer, but not significantly.
Conclusion
So that’s how you can make video collages on Android and make your ordinary videos awesome for your social network. One thing I would like to remind you before concluding is that if you have videos on cloud storage like Google Photos, please save them to your phone’s internal storage before importing into these apps, otherwise you may encounter must the incident force close. Also, if you have any doubts, feel free to ask in the comments section.
