Instagram continues to roll out more updates for its new Edits app, with another set of new creative tools now available in the video customization platform.
This week, Edits has added three more features:
- More transitions: As you can see in the first image above, Threads has added several new transition effects, including “Zoom Ripple” and “Vertical Stretch,” which you can easily add to every cut in your clips. There are now 35 transitions effects available in the app.
- Track handles sensitivity: You can now also be even more precise with your video cuts, with refined accuracy when you tap the edges of a clip in your tracking sequence.
- Apply all volume: Finally, you can now apply any volume changes to all of your clips at once, making it easier to ensure that you’re not blasting your viewers with random sounds (or annoying them by suddenly dropping to a whisper).
These are the latest in Instagram’s weekly updates for the new video editing app, which it’s hoping will become a replacement for TikTok’s CapCut, and the new preferred video creation tool for creators.
And it’s definitely moving in the right direction, with an expanding range of handy customization and creative tools at your disposal in the currently free app.
I saw “currently” free because Instagram chief Adam Mosseri has noted that some of the more advanced AI features that the Edits team are working on may become part of a subscription offering, due to the additional cost of compute with these tools.
But they could also be worth it, and with the Edits feature set continuing to expand, I’d hazard a guess that many creators will pay for the app, if it does end up switching to a paid model at some stage.
Either way, some helpful new tools in IG’s continually improving video editing suite.
