Instagram’s long-promised video-editing app is out now. Here’s how to use Edits to make Reels, and how the software differs from TikTok’s CapCut.

As initially promised, Instagram Edits is available for free on Android and iOS. It lands as a familiar timeline-based editor offering deep integration with Instagram, meaning you can view your metrics, watch other Reels, browse through all the available sounds and audio clips, and even apply popular effects.

Instagram's video editing app, Edits, is out following more than a month's delay from its originally announced release date. You can download the app from the Apple App Store and Google Play store now.
