What’s new in Final Cut Pro for iPad
Final Cut Pro for iPad 3.3 introduces new features and enhancements, detailed below.
Generate Captions
Automatically add captions and easily customize their look to create accessible, ready-to-share content for social media and video platforms. (Requires iPadOS 26 or later; available in U.S. English only.) See Add captions automatically.
Edit Detection
Quickly analyze any previously edited video to detect edit points and split it into separate clips with just a tap. See Detect and restore edits.
Detach Audio
Easily separate audio from a video clip in the timeline so you can move, trim, or edit it independently. See Detach audio from a video clip.
New content
Elevate your social media content using new Creator Themes with support for multiple aspect ratios, dynamic titles featuring additional styles, and even more vibrant, customizable backgrounds. See Add a title, Intro to generators, and Intro to video transitions.
Keyboard shortcuts
Accelerate your editing workflow with keyboard shortcuts for turning Position mode on or off, cutting all clips at the playhead, raising and lowering audio volume, and more. See Use keyboard shortcuts.
