GoPro has completed the acquisition of Replay and Slice, two mobile video editing apps. Merging Replay and Splice into GoPro's mobile strategy will allow GoPro to deliver improved mobile editing solutions. Splice, developed by Vemory in Austin, Texas, is a mobile editor that allows users to create customized edits with features that can normally be found on desktop editing applications. Replay, developed by Stupeflix in Paris, France, is an app that allows users to quickly select video clips and photos and automatically combines them into a single video featuring transition effects, graphics and soundtrack. Both apps are currently available on iOS while the release of the Android version is planned for later this year. Both teams will maintain operations in their current headquarters of Austin and Paris. The GoPro app update is expected to arrive in the course of 2016, although a precise schedule has not been announced.
