In an effort to further up its game as a video creation platform, Instagram has just debuted a new tool with Edits, a video trimming standalone app. This app allows users to create and edit videos on their smartphones or computers,

Edits is 'hoping not just to be an editing tool but an entire full suite of creative tools for those of you who are passionate about making videos on your phone,' IG Head Adam Mosseri says.

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.
