As for editing, you are able to add background music, trim the footage, include video and outro with your signature, split, and extract frames. Pretty basic, but it could be just what you need.

Telecine

With Telecine, you can capture full resolution videos directly on your phone. The app doesn't have recording controls cluttering up the video or USB debugging notification in your status bar. Rather, you launch an overlay and navigate away from the app. The overlay will remain, allowing you to press record when you are in the target app, then it will disappear while recording. To stop, just press the area where the overlay used to be before it got hidden.
