Trim video
I use the 3-sec delay when I record a video on my phone or webcam. This makes a much cleaner video, as the user doesn't see the presenter (me) hitting the record button.
The end of the video is awkward, however, showing the presenter reaching toward the camera to stop the recording. The ability to trim on either end of the video would be invaluable and maker for better-looking content for everyone. At present, I use my video editor to trim it if I want it to look its best. This adds several steps (and time) to the process and for those who aren't as fanatical about video as I happen to be, probably not an option.

Hi Josiah!
Thank you for following up. At this point we still do not have this feature on our road map of new features to add, but if we are ever able to implement video editing functions, you can be sure that we will send out emails regarding a new product release!
Please let us know if you need anything else, and feel free to email us at support@bombbomb.com.
Thanks!

Also you might say that we can record the video in another software, trim it there, and then upload it into BombBomb. The problem with that is we can't add a Call To Action on videos we have uploaded into BombBomb, so that is not an option.
So either add the functionality to trim the end of the video, or allow CTA to be added to videos that are uploaded into BombBomb.
Both functionalities are needed, but if you can only do one right now, that would be great!

We know how valuable this feature would be, and we hope someday soon we will have this ability.

I can't believe that such a basic feature of TRIM was not there from the beginning and even worse not even on your Roadmap. This alone will probably cause me to go with a competitor that has this feature. I mean it is really unprofessional to send out an unedited video and too time-consuming to have to do this in an another app.

Holy cow! Two years since this question was asked, and there's STILL no trim feature?! What on earth? This is basic, folks. You're asking us to spend a lot of money on your product every month, and you can't even give us a basic trim feature? Why not? Get with the program, Bomb Bomb!

Hi Steven and Marshall!
We appreciate your feedback, and we understand how great a feature like this would be! At this time it is not on our product road-map to implement video editing features into our software, but if this is something we ever can do, we will be sure to let you know.
Thanks again for your feedback!

Hi Joe!
Thank you for your follow up. We do not have an exact date as of this point, but we are actively exploring and looking at building a trim feature for our videos.
We will be sure to keep you updated once we know more, and you can be sure that if we are able to build this out, there will be marketing and email correspondence.
Thank you for your continued patience!

Alright need to throw my had in the ring here... BomBomb NEEDS a video trim feature. It's a huge waste of time to download the video, edit it in a video editor, and then upload the new video. I got BomBomb to save time, not to add unnecessary processes to my business. Thanks for listening.

holy cow! this request has been here for four years?!!? Yes, I'd love to trim BB video. If you're not going to put it on the roadmap just tell us so we can get on with our lives...this "hope someday soon" is nice and all, but just feels like an unhealthy dating relationship. I feel bad for Joe Parsons!
