Today, we’re launching Edits, a new video creation app for creators from Instagram that makes it easier to make great videos on your phone. Our goal is to build the most compelling creative tools to help creators like you express themselves freely, not just on Facebook or Instagram, but on any platform. Today is only the first step on this journey, and we can't wait to evolve and improve Edits with your feedback.
The tools to support your creation process all in one place
Edits has the tools you need to support your creation process, all in one place. The process of making and editing videos can be challenging, often requiring multiple apps and complicated workflows. With Edits, you now have a dedicated space with powerful capabilities for video creation, such as the ability to:
Enjoy a more flexible process with longer camera capture, easy project management and high quality, watermark-free export.
Create with powerful tools including a frame-accurate timeline, auto-captions, video overlays, AI image animation and a high-quality camera with built-in green screen.
Share directly to both Facebook and Instagram, or export and post wherever you’d like without a watermark.
On day one, Edits will be seamlessly integrated with your Instagram account — including profile data, analytics, and inspirations. This means you will need an Instagram account to log in to the new tool and begin creating.
What’s next for Edits?
This is just the first step for Edits and we’ll keep listening to feedback from creators to improve the app every week. We're excited to build even more top-requested features into Edits. We're already working on updates, including some highlights below that are coming soon to the app:
Keyframes: Pinpoint exact moments to animate the position, rotation, and scale of your clips.
Modify: Quickly change the look & feel of your videos with AI.
Collaboration: Easily share drafts with friends, other creators or brands for feedback and creative builds.
Even more fonts, text animations, transitions, voice effects, filters, sound effects and music options, including royalty-free.
Edits is available globally and free for download in the App Store and Google Play Store. To get started, simply download the app and sign in with your Instagram account.
