It was originally released by Apple in 1999 as a Mac OS 8 application bundled with the first FireWire-enabled consumer Apple model. iMovie puts all videos in one place and organizes it for you so that your videos are easy to browse and fun to watch. It's simple to just plug in your device, open iMovie, and start importing your videos or pictures. It is similar to Windows movie maker.

What can iMovie do?

iMovie allows you to edit your home movies (or any video that you load into iMovie). iMovie comes with several themes that you can add to your project. With a theme, you just have to insert the videos and photos that you want to use in the right order, and iMovie takes care of the transitions, the backgrounds, and the format of the text. You can also choose to not have a theme, and you can choose your own backgrounds, text formats, and transitions. With iMovie, you can also easily share your movies on popular sites such as Facebook and YouTube.Also you can import songs from itunes into your movie.
