InShot Stuck at 99% When Saving
Workaround available iOS, Android Updated October 21, 2026
Quick answer
When InShot hangs at 99%, the final file write is failing, usually due to storage or the app being interrupted. Give it a minute, then free space, restart and save again.
Most likely fix: Wait briefly, then cancel.
Symptoms
The save progress reaches 99% and stays there, or jumps back to 0% and starts again, sometimes ending in 'Processing interrupted'.
Why it happens
- Not enough free space for the final file plus temporary files
- App backgrounded or screen locked at the end
- Very long or 4K project
- Storage on SD card or full device
How to fix it
Try these in order — the most common fix is first.
1. Wait briefly, then cancel
- Long or 4K videos can take extra time on the last step; wait a minute or two before cancelling
2. Free storage and restart
- Free about 3x the video size in internal storage
- Restart the phone, open the draft and save again
3. Save to internal storage
- On Android, make sure InShot saves to internal storage rather than an SD card
4. Export a lower resolution or in parts
- Try 1080p/30fps
- Split long projects into two exports
