Submagic alternative
The Submagic alternative made for iPhone.
Submagic is a web app: upload your footage, let its AI caption and trim it, then download or publish. Bang AI does the cut on the phone you filmed with. Talk to the camera, tap Auto Edit, and it cuts the ums and dead air, adds J and L cuts and captions, and drops your product shot on the line you said it. You post.

Talk to the camera. Tap Auto Edit. Post.
That’s the whole job. Bang AI does the part in the middle.
- Talk to the cameraRead the teleprompter or wing it. Flub freely; film as many takes as you need.
- Tap Auto EditIt cuts the ums, pauses and false starts, adds J and L cuts, punch-ins and captions, and drops in your product shots.
- PostFix a word or swap a take with a tap, then export 9:16, 4:5 and 1:1 in one go.
Which one is built for you?
Bang AI is for you if
- You film on your iPhone and want an app there, not a website you upload to
- You want a teleprompter in the same app that cuts the video
- You want J and L cuts, so the cuts flow instead of jumping
- You want to call in your product shot or code by saying “overlay” while you film
Submagic is for you if
- You’d rather edit in a web browser than in an app
- You turn long podcasts and interviews into lots of shorts
- You want to schedule and publish posts from the editor
- You caption in many languages, or make videos with AI avatars
Who Bang AI isn’t for: it cuts by what you say, so it works best on talking-to-camera videos with clear speech. If nobody talks in your videos, it’s the wrong app, and we’d rather tell you now.

Bang AI and Submagic, answered.
What’s the best Submagic alternative on iPhone?
For talking-to-camera videos, Bang AI. You film, tap Auto Edit and post from the same phone. Submagic is a web app you upload to.
Do both cut filler words and silences?
Yes. Submagic’s Smart Trim removes silences, filler words and bad takes. Bang AI’s auto edit cuts filler words, long pauses and false starts, then adds J and L cuts so the cuts don’t feel choppy.
Can Bang AI turn a podcast into clips?
That isn’t what it’s for. Bang AI cuts short videos where you talk to the camera. For finding clips in long recordings, Submagic’s Magic Clips is built for it.
Does Bang AI have a teleprompter?
Yes. It scrolls your script while you film, with a countdown, in the same app that cuts the video.
Is Bang AI on the App Store?
Not yet. Bang AI is coming soon to iPhone. Put your email in on morebangers.com and we’ll tell you the day it’s out.
Every video you don’t post is money you don’t make.
