A Guide to Using Meta Edits

Meta have released a new video editing app for creators, called ‘Edits’. This app is designed to rival ByteDance’s CapCut, a popular short-form video-editing app, linked with TikTok.

Edits is available to download on both IOS and Android phones. Once downloaded, you will be asked to log in with your Instagram account. This creates a link between the two apps.

The app interface provides you with five main tabs:

  • Ideas: a place to note ideas for new videos, and somewhere to save reels
  • Inspiration: this is a hub for finding trending audio/video
  • Projects: this is where you can store and manage videos in progress
  • Record: start filming video content from within Edits here
  • Insights: an overview of how content is performing

Video editing tools available within Edits:

  • Green screen:Replace and edit the background of your videos with one tap.
  • Timeline:Precisely arrange and adjust clips.
  • Captions:Add automatic captions to your videos in multiple languages.
  • Audio library:Add music from Instagram’s library to your videos.
  • Cutouts:Isolate specific objects with precision tracking.

  • Apply all:Apply filters, effects, transitions, and adjustments to all of your clips at once.
  • Timeline frame rate selector:Convert your video to the frame rate you want in order to enhance playback smoothness.
  • Alignment guides:Ensure viewers can see the important parts of your video when posted and accurately position text, emoji, or other elements.
  • Beat markers:Add auto-detected beat markers to help you align clips, text, and overlays with audio when editing.
  • Filters:Choose from 30 different filter options to add a unique look to your videos.
  • Transitions:Choose from 30 different transitions to connect different video clips in a seamless way.
