Instagram is developing a new video editing app for creators, the company head Adam Mosseri announced in a post this week. The upcoming app, called Edits, is slated to include a higher-quality camera mode as well as statistics on how each Reel performs. However, in the comments section, some creators called the app a CapCut clone, while others used the comments to ask for the old square profile back.
Edits is designed for creators who use their smartphones to edit videos, Mosseri said. While the app is designed by Instagram, Mosseri noted the potential to use the edited videos on other platforms – as Edits will have the ability to export without a watermark.
