What is Video Scissors?
Video Scissors is a native Mac app for cutting and joining video files without the complexity of a full video editor. It is designed for people who want to trim clips, remove unwanted sections, or combine multiple videos into one file quickly. The app focuses on fast processing and lossless output, which is useful when you want to keep the original video quality instead of re-encoding everything. It supports common formats including MP4, MOV, AVI, and MKV, making it practical for everyday home, school, and work video tasks. Its simple interface is aimed at quick edits rather than timeline-based production, so it fits users who need straightforward clip preparation on macOS. Video Scissors is published by DVDVideoMedia.

Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
This is a standard Mac video utility, and access to your selected video files is normal for its purpose. Using it may create edited copies of your media, so check the save location before replacing or deleting original footage you still need. No unusual background behavior is required for normal use, but you should still download it from the publisher site or the Mac App Store and keep backups of important videos before batch edits.
Recommendation: Keep Video Scissors if you use your Mac for quick trimming or joining of video files. If you no longer use it, removing the app is generally fine and should mainly affect your ability to make simple lossless video edits with this tool.
