ClipMe is a free iPhone app to shoot collaborative video clips with friends. The collaborative video clip shooting means that you can record a clip and then share with your friends. Then your friends can continue shooting the clip from where you stopped. They can record anything they want and this way, all the recorded video clips are stitched together. The only thing, to remember is the duration of complete video clip which can’t be more than 15 seconds.
You can add as many friends as you want, add as many clips as you want but just remember the 15 seconds limit. Other than this, You can also follow other users, like and comment on their video clips. The app lets you choose whether you want to share your clips on ClipMe community or not.
Note: The ClipMe app is also available for Android and Windows Phone.
