iMovie for Windows - Download iMovie for PC

Apple iMovie is now free to download and use from iTunes on latest Mac computers and the latest iOS as well, which is a big new for Apple fans. With this free and intuitive video editing app developed by Apple, you can do some basic editing like trimming, cropping, merging, etc. with ease. But it's only available on Mac OS and iOS currently, so when Mac users need to edit video on Windows PC, they can’t use iMovie on Windows. Is there any video editing software similar to iMovie that can be used to edit videos on Windows 10, windows 8.1, windows 8, windows 7 or Windows Vista to facilitate editing on PC? [According to Google, the average monthly search volume of this term “imovie for windows” is about 49,500, so, you’re totally not alone].

There are many video editing software for Windows in the market, but not all of them can offer the features which iMovie offers to you - Easy-to-use while powerful. I recommend you try Wondershare Filmora9, which is the best alternative to iMovie on Windows as well as on Mac. It's very simple to use while gives you more controls like color grading, audio mixing that iMovie lacks. One of the best new for the latest Filmora9 is that you can now edit a video project on Windows or Mac either.
