</div><p>In 2017, Apple launched a brand new app called Clips, a creative video app that originally could only make square aspect ratio movies. It had fun effects, automatic subtitle captions, and more. However, in a world of social video apps like TikTok, Clips never really gained traction.</p>
<p>After being dormant in the App Store for a while now, the company is finally pulling the plug. As confirmed by a
new support document, Clips is no longer getting any app updates and has been pulled from the App Store.</p>
