How to Freeze Frame in Premiere Pro

This software requires a relatively long learning curve to get up on. So if you're already familiar with how it works, let's get started.
1. Set Frame Hold Options
To get started, you can set how you want your frame holds to work. Select any clip in your timeline, then go to the toolbar and click Clip > Video options > Frame Hold Options. Check the box to “Hold On” (leaving it unchecked will remove the holds on selected frames), then select the option you want. Now, you can choose how you want to get the frame.
2. Add A Frame Hold
Right-click the video track on the timeline, then click Add Frame Hold. A freeze frame with the duration of one frame will be cut out from the original clip. This won't affect the duration of the whole video clip, you can edit the freeze frame independently.
Bottomline
To sum up, both TunesKit AceMovi and Premiere Pro can freeze video easily. For Premiere, you'll need to spend more time learning how to use the software before adding freeze frame to your video. While in AceMovi, you can directly create as many freeze frames as you want to your video even without any video editing experience. You can choose the one that suits you the best.
