## What it is
An open-source Android application for trimming and compressing videos, using FFmpeg for processing and MediaMetadataRetriever for frame extraction. It provides a user-friendly interface with frame previews and customizable compression parameters.

## Use cases
- trim a long video into a short clip on android
- compress a video before sharing it
- preview video frames while selecting a trim range
- cut a segment out of a recorded video
- build an android app with video editing features
- reduce video file size with custom compression settings

## When to choose
- you need an android-native video trimming UI with ffmpeg-backed processing
- you want both trimming and compression in one tool
- you need frame-by-frame preview while selecting clip boundaries

## When to avoid
- you need video filters, effects, or batch processing (not yet implemented)
- you target iOS or desktop platforms
- you need a headless library without a UI
