Meta’s Edits video editing app has has announced its latest batch of new featuresincluding streamlined storyboards via sticky notes, more templates based on popular formats, lock screen widgets on iOS, and more.
First, Edits is getting new refinements to its content planning, making it easier to map out your ideas in Sticky Notes.
As you’ll see in this series, this improved scheduling flow allows you to map your videos more directly, adding video clips to your Sticky Notes, and mapping your videos in a more structured way. These notes are then overlaid on the actual project in Operations, combining your planning process with the creation flow.
Edits is also getting more templates, including formats tailored to them popular music, emerging trends and more.
So when you see a video you like, you can tap ‘Use Template’, which makes it easy to add your own clips to the same content format.
The Edits team says it’s still building out the templates process, so some users will see this and some won’t, while some creators may also see a dedicated ‘Templates’ section in the app (currently only available in the US, UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Ireland).
Edits also has some new lock screen widgets for iPhones, making it easier to access the camera in Edits, or a note to remind you of content ideas (which are saved directly in the app).
While that is now also possible customize a secondary color for your text and captions.
You can now also add publicly posted IG Reels to your projects for reaction videos and the like.
The Edits app goes from strength to strength, with a range of valuable editing features that help you create more resonant, engaging video clips.
If you mainly create short videos, you should at least be aware of the latest editing functionality, and since it’s free, it’s worth taking a look and seeing what you can create in the app.
