  • Editing Tools: Touch-up, green screen, and access to Instagram’s audio library.

  • Video Specs: Supports up to 10-minute videos in 1080p resolution.

  • Captions & AI Tools: Auto-captions in multiple languages, “Cutouts” to highlight people or objects, and static image animation with AI.

  • Timeline Editing: Add, cut, or rearrange clips easily.

  • Organization: Manage and resume projects within the app.

  • Publishing: Post directly to Instagram or Facebook, or export for any platform—no watermark.

  • Analytics: View performance stats and engagement metrics.

Instagram has launched a new free video editing app called Edits, aimed at helping creators craft polished videos from start to finish. Although built with Instagram in mind, videos made with Edits can be shared on any platform without watermarks.

The app guides users through the entire process—from collecting ideas to publishing the final video. Users can browse and save trending content for inspiration, and create videos up to 10 minutes long in 1080p resolution. Editing tools include a touch-up feature to enhance video quality, a green screen for background changes, and access to Instagram’s audio library.

Edits also supports automatic captions in several languages. An AI-powered “Cutouts” tool helps isolate people or objects in videos, while static images can be added and animated. A built-in timeline lets users fine-tune clips, and all projects are saved for easy access and organization. Finished videos can be shared directly to Instagram or Facebook, or exported elsewhere without branding.

Instagram says more features are coming soon, including keyframe editing, AI visual effects, collaborative feedback tools, and an expanded collection of fonts, transitions, audio effects, and filters—all royalty-free
