WhatsApp status only allows 30 seconds per upload. Paste a link or upload your video and this free splitter cuts the whole thing into 30-second parts — in order, in full 1080p HD, with no watermark and no signup.
Reel Frame always renders 1080×1920 (9:16), so the aspect ratio above is ignored while it is on.
Crop PositionA vertical clip is narrower than the original video, so the sides get cut. Pick the side the speaker sits on — or choose Fit, which shrinks the whole frame so nothing is ever cut off (good for videos with words written across the screen).
Clip LengthThe entire video is sliced into consecutive clips of your chosen length. For example, a 15‑minute video at 1 min will produce all 15 clips in full 1080p HD.
Type “Episode 1” or “Part 1” and numbers will auto‑increment (Episode 1, 2, 3…) across all clips.
Leave it empty and the AI writes a viral hook for each clip automatically.
Runs on our own dedicated server — most clips are ready in under a minute.
Starting…
Three steps, no account, nothing to install.
Upload a file from your device, or paste a YouTube link instead. Your video is only kept long enough to cut it.
Choose how long each clip should be, from 20 seconds up to 10 minutes. Leave Fast Mode on for a straight cut by the clock, or switch on Reel Frame to add the black canvas and a bold headline on top.
Each clip arrives on its own in full 1080p HD, with the audio intact and no watermark. Download the ones you want.
WhatsApp status has a hard limit of 30 seconds per upload. It is not a quality setting you can change and it is not a bug — the app simply refuses anything longer, or silently trims it at the 30-second mark. The only way to post a five-minute clip is to post it as ten consecutive pieces, and that is exactly what this page does.
Most free splitters pick moments scattered across the video — a bit from the start, a bit from the middle, a bit from the end. That is fine for a highlights reel and useless for a status, because your viewers watch the parts back to back and every gap is obvious. This tool cuts straight through instead: part 1 is 0 to 30 seconds, part 2 is 30 to 60, part 3 is 60 to 90, and so on to the end of the file. Nothing is skipped and nothing overlaps, so the parts play as one continuous video.
A short tail is dropped rather than posted. If your video runs 3 minutes 8 seconds, the last 8 seconds would become a stub that is over before anyone reads it, so anything shorter than half a part is discarded and you get six clean parts instead of six plus a flicker.
Viewers need to know which piece comes next, and typing “Part 1”, “Part 2”, “Part 3” onto ten clips by hand in a phone editor is the slow, annoying half of this job. Switch on Reel Frame before you press Generate and type Part 1 in the headline box. Every part after that is numbered for you — Part 2, Part 3, Part 4 — and the number is rendered into the video itself on a clean black banner, so it survives being re-compressed by WhatsApp and stays readable on any phone.
If you would rather have no banner at all, leave Reel Frame off and you get the plain video, split and nothing else.
WhatsApp compresses every video you post, and how bad that looks depends entirely on what you hand it. Give it a small, soft file and the app squeezes an already-soft picture until it turns to mush. Every part here is rendered at full 1080×1920 in H.264 High profile, which is the format WhatsApp, Instagram and TikTok all expect — so the app has good pixels to work with and its compression has less to destroy.
One honest limit: no tool can add detail that was never in your video. If the file you upload is a low-resolution copy that has already been forwarded around a few times, the parts will look exactly as good as that copy and no better. Start from the best version you have.
A status fills a phone screen, so 9:16 suits most videos. But a normal landscape video is far wider than a phone screen, and cropping it to vertical throws away both sides — which is how you end up posting a status showing two microphones and half a face. If the important thing sits on one side, pick that side under Crop Position. If the video has words written across the screen, or two people sitting apart, pick Fit: the whole frame is kept and shrunk to fit, and the space above and below is filled with a soft blurred copy of the video instead of dead black bars.
This runs in your browser against our own server. There is no app to download, no account to create, and no watermark stamped across the result. Your video is processed, the parts are yours, and we are not building a library of other people’s uploads.
Quick answers about how this tool works.
Upload your video or paste a link, leave the clip length on 30s, and press Generate. The tool cuts the whole video into consecutive 30-second parts and gives you each one as a separate download. Post them in order and your viewers see one continuous video.
It is a fixed limit in the app, not a setting. Anything longer is refused or silently trimmed at the 30-second mark. Splitting the video into 30-second parts is the only way to post something longer.
Yes. There is no signup, no account, no app to install and no watermark on the result. Every part downloads in full 1080p HD.
Yes. Switch on Reel Frame before pressing Generate and type Part 1 in the headline box. Every following part is numbered automatically and the number is rendered into the video itself, so it survives WhatsApp compression.
The parts are re-encoded at 1080×1920 in H.264 High profile, which is what WhatsApp expects, so nothing is thrown away needlessly. But no tool can add detail that was not in your file — if you start from a low-resolution forwarded copy, the parts will match that copy.
As many as the video needs. A 10-minute video at 30 seconds gives 20 parts. There is a safety ceiling of 200 parts per video so a very long upload cannot overwhelm the server.
No. If the leftover tail is shorter than half a part it is dropped, because a 4-second status is over before anyone reads it. You get clean, full-length parts instead.
Pick Fit under Crop Position. The whole frame is kept and shrunk to fit the vertical screen, with the space above and below filled by a soft blurred copy of the video instead of black bars. Nothing is cut off.
Yes. It runs in the browser, so it works the same on Android and iPhone as it does on a laptop. There is nothing to install.
