I just checked the Final Cut Pro X user guide and it appears that Final Cut Pro X does indeed have a video noise reduction feature:

As I mentioned, iMovie does not have a video noise reduction feature. In addition to Final Cut Pro X there might be some online video editors, or other apps, that do have such a feature.


In the Photos app editor you can reduce noise in a photo but not in a video clip.

If you want to try FCP free for 90 days then you can get it here.

No payment or credit card details are taken.

It will expire 90 days after you launch the application for the first time.

https://www.apple.com/final-cut-pro/trial/

Download straight away while it is still 90 days, it used to be 30 days.

It could go back to 30 days at any time .

You can download now, and install when you are ready .
