Vodu Turn your ideas into AI videos in about a minute
Last updated: July 2026
Vodu AI is a free AI movie maker app for iPhone that turns a text prompt or a photo into a short, shareable video in about a minute. It combines text-to-video, image-to-video, AI photo editing and video extension in one app, so you can create faceless clips, trailers and social videos without a camera or editing suite.

One app, four ways to create
Vodu AI is a genuine video generator, not a filter pack — and a maturing one. First released as version 1.0 in 2024, it reached version 1.8 in December 2025 (App Store) and holds a 4.5-star rating from 24 App Store ratings (as of July 2026). Everything below is built into the app.
Text to video

Frequently asked questions
What is Vodu AI?
Vodu AI is an AI movie maker and video generator app for iPhone. You describe a video in words, or upload a photo, and the app generates a short AI video for you — typically in under a minute. It also includes AI photo editing and the ability to extend a clip into a longer sequence.
Is Vodu AI the same as the Vodu (فودو) streaming service?
No. This is a common mix-up. Vodu AI is a video creation app — it makes new videos from your prompts and photos. It is not the Arabic “فودو” (Vodu) movie-streaming service, and it has nothing to do with “voodoo.” If you are looking to watch films, this is not that app; if you want to make short AI videos, you are in the right place.
Is Vodu AI free?
Vodu AI is free to download and try. Some features and certain AI creations may require an in-app purchase or a premium subscription. You can see the current options inside the app before you buy anything.
What can I make with Vodu AI?
Faceless videos for YouTube and TikTok, short movie and trailer-style clips, animated versions of your photos, social posts, and quick creative experiments. Anything that starts as a prompt or an image can become a short video.
What devices does Vodu work on?
Vodu AI runs on iPhone and iPad with iOS 13.4 or later. An Android build exists on Google Play in some regions, but it is not available in every store (including the US), so iPhone is the recommended way to use Vodu.
