Apple Pulls Clips From the App Store

Apple is shutting down support for Clips, its short-form video app launched in 2017. As of Oct. 10, new downloads have been removed, though existing users can still access and re-download the app.

Without future updates, Clips may lose functionality over time. Apple recommends exporting videos to the Photos library for continued editing and sharing.

Removing Clips signals Apple’s focus shifting toward integrated AI tools instead of standalone creative apps.

Apple rarely pulls products without a strategic plan — something bigger might be coming to replace Clips.
