Instagram announces Edits, its CapCut rival | Infinium-tech
TikTok wasn’t the only high-profile app to be banned in the US recently, with fellow ByteDance video editing app CapCut also shut down. Meta wasted no time in taking advantage of the situation and announced its own free video editor for creators called Edits.
The app is currently on pre-order in the US App Store and is expected to go live next month. Instagram head Adam Mosseri also confirmed that an Android version is “coming soon”.

Editing allows users to capture and edit footage for vertical-style videos, which can then be posted to any platform. If you choose to post on Instagram, the app will provide live video performance insights like audience engagement due to its integration with Instagram Reels.
Edits are also getting a dedicated Inspiration tab and all the standard tools found in CapCut, including green screen, video overlays, caption generation, and voiceovers. You will be able to use the app’s built-in AI animation feature to bring images to life.
Editing also includes camera settings for resolution, framerate, dynamic range, flash, and zoom. The app also allows creators to collaborate and share video drafts.
