Meta has officially announced Edits, an Instagram App, a powerful new video editing app set to launch on March 13, 2025.
The timing is strategic, coinciding with ByteDance’s CapCut being temporarily removed from major app stores due to TikTok-related bans. Positioned as more than just another editing tool, Edits offers high-quality video capture, AI-powered animations, and collaborative draft-sharing.
It also includes green screen capabilities, advanced audio enhancement, and an inspiration tab with trending sounds and creative ideas.

Notably, videos exported from Edit will be watermark-free, making it a direct competitor to CapCut and other editing apps.
Meta aims to integrate Edits seamlessly with Instagram, providing detailed insights into video performance and engagement.
With its robust features and perfect market timing, Edits could become the go-to video editing app for mobile content creators.
Mosseri made it clear in his announcement that Edits isn’t just another video editing app — it’s positioning itself as a comprehensive creative toolkit for mobile video creators.

Here’s a look at everything we know about the new video editing app.
