A list that stores multiple markers is called a marker list.

How to move marker list
You can drag the marker list to a different position by tapping and moving the area at the top of the marker list (between the Marker Play Switch and List Edit Mode).
While a video is playing, you can move the video preview to a less obscured area.

How to add markers

Turn the Marker Play switch OFF and start playback.

When you reach the first marker, tap the “Add Marker” button.

The Marker Editor will automatically open. [A] will contain the point where you tapped the Add Marker button.
