How to Remove Watermark on InShot?

Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to remove the watermark in InShot.

Method 1: Using InShot’s Paid Version (InShot Pro)

The most straightforward and cleanest way to remove the watermark in InShot is by upgrading to the premium version, InShot Pro. This version offers full access to all features without restrictions, including the ability to remove watermarks from your edited videos.

1. Download InShot Pro:
   • First, you need to install InShot on your device if you haven’t already. Open the Google Play Store on Android or the App Store on iOS and search for “InShot.” Download and install the app.
   • Once installed, open InShot and create an account or log in to your existing account.
2. Remove the Watermark:
   • After logging in, open the project you are working on, where the watermark appears. InShot places a watermark (usually the InShot logo) at the bottom right of your video in the free version.
   • Tap on the watermark in the video editor. You will see an option to remove the watermark or a lock icon indicating that it is a premium feature.
   • If you see the lock icon, you will need to upgrade to InShot Pro to access the watermark removal feature. InShot Pro offers subscription options, such as a monthly or annual plan.
   • Once you upgrade to the premium version, the watermark will automatically be removed from your edited videos, and you can save or share them without any branding.

Upgrading to InShot Pro is the best option if you want a clean, professional-looking video without the hassle of cropping or overlaying graphics to hide the watermark. This also unlocks additional features like premium filters, effects, and more.

Method 2: Using the Free Version (Workaround)

If you’re not willing to pay for the Pro version, you can still remove the watermark in InShot by using some workaround techniques. While these methods may not be as clean as using InShot Pro, they can help you get rid of the watermark for free.

1. Crop the Video:
   • In the free version of InShot, one method to remove the watermark is by cropping the video. This is a simple and quick option, but it does come with a downside.
   • Open your project in the InShot editor and tap on the Canvas icon (it looks like a frame or a box). This allows you to adjust the aspect ratio of your video.
   • Choose the aspect ratio you want for your video, such as 16:9 for YouTube, 1:1 for Instagram, or any other aspect ratio that fits your needs.
   • After selecting the aspect ratio, use the crop tool to adjust the borders of your video. By moving the video frame, you can cut off the section where the watermark appears.
   • The downside to this approach is that cropping the video may cut out important parts of the content, so it’s important to consider how much of the video you’re willing to lose in order to get rid of the watermark.
2. Overlay a Text or Sticker:
   • Another free workaround is to overlay a text box or sticker over the watermark. This doesn’t remove the watermark but covers it up with something else, making it less noticeable.
   • To do this, tap on the Text or Sticker option in the InShot menu. You can add a piece of text, such as a title or description, or place a decorative sticker over the watermark area.
   • You can adjust the size, position, and opacity of the text or sticker to perfectly cover the watermark.
   • While this method doesn’t technically remove the watermark, it can be an effective solution if you need a quick fix and don’t want to crop or upgrade to the Pro version.

Method 3: Use a Third-Party App (Not Recommended for Best Results)

There are third-party apps available that claim to remove watermarks from videos, but they are not always the best solution. These apps may not provide the same quality of results as InShot Pro, and in some cases, they can introduce more problems, such as blurring, loss of video quality, or even additional watermarks.

1. Video Eraser: This is an example of a third-party app designed to remove watermarks from videos. However, these apps often rely on algorithms that try to blur or crop out the watermark, and they don’t always work well, especially if the watermark is large or located in a busy area of the video.
   • These apps can lead to poor-quality results and might not completely remove the watermark, leaving visible remnants that can be distracting.
   • Additionally, some third-party apps may add their own watermark to the video as a trade-off for using the app for free or as part of their business model.

While third-party apps might be tempting for those looking for a free solution, the results can be inconsistent, and they may end up creating more issues than they solve. For the best quality and a clean, watermark-free video, upgrading to InShot Pro is still the best choice.

Conclusion

If you’re serious about editing videos without watermarks and want a professional look, InShot Pro is the recommended route, offering a seamless experience and additional editing features. However, if you’re on a budget or don’t want to subscribe, using the free version with cropping or overlay techniques can serve as temporary solutions, although they might not be as clean. Third-party apps can also help, but they often compromise video quality.
