How to Build a Video Editor in React Native
Over 90% of mobile users now consume video content weekly. But here’s the twist: they’re not just watching it anymore. They’re creating, trimming clips, dropping filters, adding music, and beyond.
If you’re building a React Native app and not offering these editing tools, you’re already behind. The good news is that you don’t need to build a video editor from scratch. In this guide, we’ll show you how to integrate Banuba’s powerful React Native video editor SDK and quickly give your users the editing tools they so much expect.

[navigation]
TL;DR:
- React Native helps speed up development by up to 30% for multiplatform apps;
- A ready-made video editor provides most or even all the features your users need to make content;
- Banuba Video Editor SDK offers easy integration, plenty of editing features and effects;
- To integrate it, follow the guide below.
Why React Native
For the last few years, this technology has remained the most popular framework for developing cross-platform mobile applications.
It uses the popular JavaScript and boasts up to 95% code reuse between Android, iOS, and Web. This means if you build a video editor with React Native, your work would become more efficient, with the total development time decreasing by up to 30% for a multiplatform app.
What’s more, React Native works almost as fast as native technologies and can integrate native code. This means React Native video processing software can be a viable alternative to one built with Swift, Java, or Kotlin.
Using this framework will save many weeks of work and allow you to go to market much faster. For more details, see our article: “How to develop a mobile video editor app”.
What Makes a React Native Video Editor Useful?
Short-form video is dominating mobile apps. And it’s not just entertainment: video drives 80% more conversions in commerce, learning, and fitness apps too.
But users don’t just want to watch videos. Instead, they want to create them. That’s where adding a React Native video editor becomes a game changer. You’re giving users the tools to express, share, and personalize without leaving your app.
Of course, building a video editor from scratch is ambitious. However, between native video processing, UI timelines, and exporting, it gets complicated fast.
That’s why many devs reach for React Native video editor libraries. These libraries bridge the React frontend with native modules that handle the heavy lifting, like video decoding, rendering, and effects seamlessly.
And it’s not just about power but about the React Native video editor UI that feels delightful to use. What should that include?
- A drag-and-drop timeline editor
- A device-integrated media library picker
- Previews of filters and AR effects
- Music overlays and audio trimming tools
- Real-time previews and clear export options
By using a proven video SDK React Native, your app can lead that future instead of falling behind it.

So, How Do You Add It to Your React Native App?
Let’s get practical. If you’re like most devs, you don’t want a 10-step guide. You want something that works quickly.
Here’s the short version:
Step 1. Get your Banuba trial token
To begin the free trial of the SDK and gain all the React Native video processing benefits for your app, start with getting a unique trial token. It offers a 14-day free trial with unlimited SDK features.
Step 2. Install the Banuba React Native SDK
This involves adding the Banuba package to your React Native project.
2.1. Verify dependencies:
Is your project running the right versions? Making sure everything is aligned now will save time later.
- Yarn: 3.6.1 or higher (or npm equivalent)
- React Native: 0.74.2 or higher
- Android: API Level 23 (Android 6.0) or higher
- iOS: iOS 14.0 or higher
You can check your React Native version in your package.json file. Update if necessary.
2.2. Install the package:
Head to your project’s main folder in the terminal, then try one of these commands:
Using npm:
[code]
Bash
npm install react-native-banuba-sdk
[/code]
Using Yarn:
[code]
Bash
yarn add react-native-banuba-sdk
[/code]
2.3. Install Pods (iOS Specific):
After installing the npm/yarn package, you need to install the native iOS dependencies (CocoaPods).
[code]
Bash
cd ios
pod install
cd .. # Go back to your project root
[/code]
Having issues with pod install? Run pod deintegrate, then pod install again. Also, double-check that your Podfile includes all necessary entries—Banuba’s install script typically handles this for recent React Native versions.
Step 3: Setting up native dependencies (project configuration)
This is often the most critical and platform-specific part. The SDK usually has native code that needs proper linking and configuration. Modern React Native versions (0.60+) use autolinking, which simplifies this, but some manual steps might still be required by Banuba.
3.1. Android Setup:
- android/build.gradle (project level):
You might need to add Banuba's Maven repository.
[code]
Gradle
allprojects {
repositories {
google()
mavenCentral()
// Add Banuba's Maven repository if specified in their docs
// For example:
maven { url 'https://artifactory.banuba.com/artifactory/banuba-maven-release/' }
}
[/code]
android/app/build.gradle (App Level):
Minimum SDK Version: Ensure your minSdkVersion matches Banuba's requirement (e.g., minSdkVersion 23).
Java 8 Compatibility:
[code]
Gradle
android {
// ...
compileOptions {
sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
}
kotlinOptions {
jvmTarget = '1.8'
}
// ...
}
[/code]
Packaging Options: Sometimes, large SDKs require specific packagingOptions.
[code]
Gradle
android {
// ...
packagingOptions {
pickFirst 'lib/arm64-v8a/libc++_shared.so'
pickFirst 'lib/armeabi-v7a/libc++_shared.so'
pickFirst 'lib/x86/libc++_shared.so'
pickFirst 'lib/x86_64/libc++_shared.so'
}
// ...
}
[/code]
Permissions: You will likely need camera, microphone, and storage permissions in AndroidManifest.xml. While the SDK might request them at runtime, declaring them is good practice.
2. android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml:
XML
[code]
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.yourapp">
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" android:maxSdkVersion="28" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<application
android:requestLegacyExternalStorage="true" >
</application>
</manifest>
[/code]
3.2. iOS Setup:
- ios/Podfile:
- Ensure your platform :ios, '14.0' (or higher) is set.
- Banuba might require specific post-install hooks or flags, check their documentation.
- Info.plist: You'll need to add privacy descriptions for camera, microphone, and photo library access.
XML
[code]
<key>NSCameraUsageDescription</key>
<string>This app needs access to your camera to capture videos.</string>
<key>NSMicrophoneUsageDescription</key>
<string>This app needs access to your microphone to record audio for videos.</string>
<key>NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription</key>
<string>This app needs access to your photo library to select and save videos.</string>
<key>NSPhotoLibraryAddUsageDescription</key>
<string>This app needs to save edited videos to your photo library.</string>
[/code]
Xcode Project Settings:
- Build Settings: Sometimes specific HEADER_SEARCH_PATHS or FRAMEWORK_SEARCH_PATHS are needed.
- Capabilities: Ensure that required capabilities like "Background Modes" (if video processing happens in background) are enabled, though less common for a simple editor.
Step 4: Add the video editor React component to your app
This is where you integrate the Banuba SDK into your React Native JavaScript code.
4.1. Initialize the SDK: The Banuba SDK needs to be initialized with your token, usually once when the app starts or when the component that uses the editor mounts.
[code]
JavaScript
// App.js or a dedicated BanubaService.js
import { Platform, Alert } from 'react-native';
// This import path is illustrative. Check Banuba's docs for the exact path.
import BanubaVideoEditor from 'react-native-banuba-sdk';
// IMPORTANT: Replace with your actual Banuba Token!
const BANUBA_CLIENT_TOKEN = "YOUR_UNIQUE_BANUBA_TRIAL_TOKEN";
export const initializeBanubaSDK = async () => {
try {
// This is a placeholder for Banuba's specific initialization method.
// It might return a boolean indicating success.
const isInitialized = await BanubaVideoEditor.initialize(BANUBA_CLIENT_TOKEN);
if (isInitialized) {
console.log("Banuba SDK initialized successfully!");
return true;
} else {
console.error("Banuba SDK failed to initialize.");
Alert.alert("Initialization Failed", "Could not initialize video editor. Please check your token.");
return false;
}
} catch (error) {
console.error("Error during Banuba SDK initialization:", error);
Alert.alert("Error", "An error occurred while setting up the video editor.");
return false;
}
};
// You might also have a deinitialization function for cleanup
export const deinitializeBanubaSDK = async () => {
try {
await BanubaVideoEditor.deinitialize(); // Placeholder method
console.log("Banuba SDK deinitialized.");
} catch (error) {
console.error("Error deinitializing Banuba SDK:", error);
}
};
[/code]
4.2. Create a component to launch the editor: This component will handle the logic for opening the Banuba video editor SDK and processing its results.
[code]
JavaScript
// screens/VideoEditorScreen.js (or any component where you want the editor)
import React, { useState, useEffect } from 'react';
import { View, Button, Text, ActivityIndicator, Alert } from 'react-native';
import { initializeBanubaSDK, deinitializeBanubaSDK } from '../services/BanubaService'; // Assuming you put init logic here
// Again, placeholder import.
import BanubaVideoEditor from 'react-native-banuba-sdk';
const VideoEditorScreen = () => {
const [sdkReady, setSdkReady] = useState(false);
const [editingResult, setEditingResult] = useState(null);
const [loading, setLoading] = useState(true);
useEffect(() => {
const setupSdk = async () => {
const success = await initializeBanubaSDK();
setSdkReady(success);
setLoading(false);
};
setupSdk();
return () => {
// Deinitialize SDK when component unmounts if needed
// deinitializeBanubaSDK();
};
}, []);
const openBanubaEditor = async () => {
if (!sdkReady) {
Alert.alert("Editor Not Ready", "Please wait while the video editor initializes.");
return;
}
try {
setLoading(true);
// This is the core call to open the Banuba Video Editor UI.
// The options object is crucial for customization (initial video, enabled features).
// Consult Banuba's documentation for all available options.
const result = await BanubaVideoEditor.openVideoEditor({
// Example options:
// entryPoint: 'camera', // 'camera' or 'gallery' or 'editor' (if opening existing video)
// initialVideoUri: 'file:///path/to/my/video.mp4', // To edit an existing video
// enableGallery: true,
// enableCamera: true,
// enableMusicEditor: true,
// enableFilterEditor: true,
// exportQuality: 'high',
// audioVolume: 0.8,
// watermarkEnabled: false, // If your license allows
// ... many more customization options
});
if (result && result.exportedVideoUri) {
console.log("Video edited successfully! Path:", result.exportedVideoUri);
setEditingResult(`Edited video saved to: ${result.exportedVideoUri}`);
Alert.alert("Success", "Video has been edited and saved!");
// You can now upload this video, display it, etc.
} else if (result && result.cancelled) {
console.log("Video editing was cancelled.");
setEditingResult("Video editing cancelled by user.");
} else {
console.warn("Video editor closed without a specific result.");
setEditingResult("Video editor session ended.");
}
} catch (error) {
console.error("Failed to open Banuba Video Editor:", error);
Alert.alert("Error", "Could not open video editor.");
} finally {
setLoading(false);
}
};
if (loading) {
return (
<View style=>
<ActivityIndicator size="large" color="#0000ff" />
<Text style=>{sdkReady ? "Launching Editor..." : "Initializing Banuba SDK..."}</Text>
</View>
);
}
return (
<View style=>
<Text style=>
Integrate Banuba Video Editor
</Text>
{sdkReady ? (
<Button
title="Open Video Editor"
onPress={openBanubaEditor}
disabled={loading}
/>
) : (
<Text style=>
SDK not ready. Check your token and console for errors.
</Text>
)}
{editingResult && (
<View style=>
<Text style=>Last Editor Result:</Text>
<Text style=>{editingResult}</Text>
{/* You could add a <Video> component here to play the edited file */}
{/* Example: <Video source= style= /> */}
</View>
)}
</View
);
};
export default VideoEditorScreen;
[/code]
Step 5: Run your application
After all these steps, rebuild your application to ensure all native modules are properly linked.
[code]
Bash
# Clean caches (good practice)
npm start -- --reset-cache # or yarn start -- --reset-cache
cd ios && pod install && cd .. # Re-run pod install if you changed Podfile
npx react-native run-android
npx react-native run-ios
[/code]

Conceptual React Native Video Editor Example: A Simple Video Editor with Banuba SDK
Picture a React Native app where users can shoot fun videos or grab one from their phone, add cool filters, trim the parts they don’t want, and then save or share the finished cut.
App name: "MySimpleVid"
Core features:
- Video selection/recording: Allow users to choose existing videos or record new ones.
- Basic timeline editing: Trim the video's start and end points.
- Effects/filters: Apply a visual filter to the video.
- Video processing & export: Save the edited video.
Technologies:
- React Native
Banuba Video Editor SDK
User Flow & Banuba SDK Involvement
Phase 1: Editor Launch & Initial Video Selection
User Action:
The user taps the “Edit Video” button on the main screen of your React Native app.
App Behavior (React Native):
- The app checks if the Banuba SDK is initialized (sdkReady state).
- If ready, it calls BanubaVideoEditor.openVideoEditor() with appropriate parameters.
Banuba SDK Options:
[code]
{
entryPoint: 'camera' | 'gallery',
enableGallery: true,
enableCamera: true
}
[/code]
SDK UI Response:
- If entryPoint: 'gallery', a media picker opens.
- If entryPoint: 'camera', the in-app camera launches for recording.
Outcome:
The editor supports both media selection from the device and real-time video capture via the integrated camera module.
Phase 2: Timeline & Trimming Interface
User Action:
After choosing or recording a video, the editor transitions to the timeline view.
Banuba Editor UI:
- Top: Video preview player.
- Bottom: Interactive timeline with draggable start/end handles.
User Interactions:
- Adjust trim points by dragging the handles.
- The video preview updates in real-time to reflect changes.
SDK Functionality (Under the Hood):
- Real-time trimming is handled by Banuba's native video engine.
- Frames are dynamically re-rendered based on trim points for smooth playback without lag.
Phase 3: Applying Filters & Effects
User Action:
The user taps the “Filters” or “Effects” icon.
Banuba Editor UI:
- A horizontal scroll or grid layout of effect thumbnails appears.
- Tapping on any effect applies it immediately to the preview.
Features:
- Real-time effect rendering.
- Categorized filters: e.g., Color, Artistic, AR Masks.
- AR filters use face tracking and overlay 3D/2D assets using computer vision.
SDK Role:
- Applies filters frame-by-frame in real-time.
- Integrates effects seamlessly with trimmed video portions.
Phase 4: Exporting the Final Video
User Action:
Once editing is done, the user taps “Done” or “Export.”
Banuba SDK UI:
- A progress indicator appears while the video is processed.
SDK Processing Tasks:
- Encoding: Converts edits into a final video (e.g., MP4).
- Edits Merge: Applies trims, effects, and filters permanently.
- Audio Sync: Keeps sound aligned with video content.
- Optimization: Uses hardware acceleration where available.
Result:
- SDK returns control to React Native.
- The returned result includes the final video path (e.g., exportedVideoUri).
App Logic (React Native):
- Use the URI to:
- Upload to a backend/server.
- Show in a custom player.
- Save to gallery (using modules like react-native-fs or react-native-camera-roll).
- Navigate to a sharing screen.

Example: Configuring Toolbar Tools & Theme (TypeScript)
[code]
import BanubaVideoEditor from 'react-native-banuba-sdk';
const editorConfig = {
toolsOrder: ['trim', 'filters', 'stickers', 'music'],
theme: {
primaryColor: '#FF6347',
secondaryColor: '#333',
backgroundColor: '#FFF',
fontFamily: 'Arial',
},
enableFilters: true,
enableMusicEditor: true,
enableAnnotations: true,
overlayImages: ['sticker1.png', 'sticker2.png'],
};
BanubaVideoEditor.openVideoEditor(editorConfig)
.then(result => {
if (result.exportedVideoUri) {
console.log('Video saved at:', result.exportedVideoUri);
}
})
.catch(console.error);
[/code]
Change Tool Order & Enable/Disable Features
[code]
const config = {
toolsOrder: ['filters', 'trim', 'music'], // reorder toolbar buttons
enableTextOverlay: false, // hide text tool
enableARMasks: true, // enable AR masks
};
[/code]
Filters
Banuba includes real-time filter previews and AR filters. You can customize which filter sets appear.
[code]
const filterConfig = {
filterCategories: [
{ id: 'color', name: 'Color Filters' },
{ id: 'artistic', name: 'Artistic' },
{ id: 'ar_masks', name: 'AR Masks' },
],
};
BanubaVideoEditor.openVideoEditor({
...editorConfig,
filterConfig,
});
[/code]
Overlays
Add overlay images or stickers your users can place on videos.
[code]
const overlayConfig = {
overlayImages: [
{ id: 'sticker1', uri: 'file:///path/to/sticker1.png' },
{ id: 'sticker2', uri: 'file:///path/to/sticker2.png' },
],
};
BanubaVideoEditor.openVideoEditor({
...editorConfig,
...overlayConfig,
});
[/code]

iOS (Objective-C)
[code]
#import <RNVideoEditor/RNVideoEditor.h>
- (void)configureBanubaEditor {
RNVideoEditorBuilder *builder = [RNVideoEditorBuilder new];
builder.theme = [RNVideoEditorTheme defaultTheme];
builder.toolsOrder = @[@"trim", @"filters", @"stickers"];
// Additional configuration here
[RNVideoEditor configureWithBuilder:builder];
}
[/code]
Android (Kotlin)
[code]
RNVideoEditorModule.editorWillOpenClosure = { editorSettings ->
editorSettings.toolsOrder = listOf("filters", "trim", "music")
editorSettings.theme.primaryColor = Color.parseColor("#FF6347")
// Customize more editorSettings here
}
[/code]
